Absence of HVEM affects kinetics of induced reactivation in explanted TG from latently-infected mice.

HVEM-/- mice were ocularly infected with 2X105 pfu/eye of KOS-Rid1, KOS-Rid2, or control KOS after corneal scarification. Twenty-eight days PI, individual TGs were isolated and incubated in tissue culture media as in Fig 1 above. Results are plotted as the number of TG that reactivated daily. Numbers indicate average time that TG from each group first showed CPE ± SEM. For each group 20 TG from ten mice were used.
