Antigen Information
Introduction
Herpes simplex virus 1 and 2 (HSV-1 and HSV-2), also known as human herpesvirus 1 and 2
(HHV-1 and HHV-2), are two members of the herpesvirus family, Herpesviridae, that infect
humans. Both HSV-1 (which produces most cold sores) and HSV-2 (which produces most
genital herpes) are ubiquitous and contagious. They can be spread when an infected person is
producing and shedding the virus. Symptoms of herpes simplex virus infection include watery
blisters in the skin or mucous membranes of the mouth, lips, nose or genitals. As neurotropic and
neuroinvasive viruses, HSV-1 and -2 persist in the body by becoming latent and hiding from the
immune system in the cell bodies of neurons
