CHANGES IN THE IMMUNE STATUS OF INDIVIDUALS INFECTED WITH HSV VIRUS

Abstract The problem of opportunistic infections becomes an actual problem in modern times. This is related to a number of factors, including the increase of chronic diseases treated with immunodepressants, which weaken the immune system. Opportunistic infections are caused by various microorganisms, including bacteria, fungi, parasites, and viruses. These microorganisms, which often cause asymptomatic infections in healthy individuals, can cause infections that pose a threat to life in the presence of weakened immune systems. This article examines the role of cytokines, chemokines, macrophages, T and B cells produced by immune cells during HSV infection, which is one of the opportunistic infections.References: 1.
