Susceptibility of human lymphocyte populations to infection by herpes simplex virus

Susceptibility of human lymphocyte populations to infection by herpes simplex virus

B K Pelton et al. Immunology. 1977 May.

Abstract

The antibody response to diphtheria toxoid by cultured tonsil cells was suppressed by herpes simplex virus during its inductive stage. Since only T lymphocytes readily supported virus replication, this immunosuppression may be attributed to a selective effect of the virus on this population of cells.
