Background: Herpes simplex virus type 2 (HSV-2) is a common sexually transmitted infection (STI) primarily acquired through sexual contact. In 2000, the World Health Organization (WHO) for the first time reported the association of STIs with male infertility. Infertility is described as the inability to achieve a clinical pregnancy after engaging in regular, unprotected sexual intercourse for a year or more.

Alzheimer's disease (AD) diagnosis relies on the presence of extracellular β-amyloid (Aβ) and intracellular hyperphosphorylated tau (p-tau). Emerging evidence suggests a potential link between AD pathologies and infectious agents, with herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV-1) being a leading candidate. Our investigation, using metagenomics, mass spectrometry, western blotting, and decrowding expansion pathology, detects HSV-1-associated proteins in human brain samples.

Background: Early Onset Alzheimer's Disease (EOAD) is thought to result from a combination of environmental, genetic, and lifestyle factors. Herpesvirus infections may contribute to the development of EOAD and the objective of our study is to identify potential associations between herpes virus infections and the risk of developing EOAD.
Method: Amyloid-status Alzheimer's disease was diagnosed based on clinical history and ATN criteria, determined by the measuring the Amyloidß42:40 ratio, tau, and 181-Phospho-tau in the cerebrospinal fluid.
Background: Millions of people suffer from traumatic brain injury (TBI) annually and many subsequently develop AD-like characteristics, but the processes occurring in the brain and the reasons for the acquisition of AD-like dementia are unknown. TBI is the leading cause of mortality in young adults and causes a huge socioeconomic burden. Improving outcomes in these patients would be a significant public health benefit.

Alzheimers Dement

UMass Chan Medical School, Worcester, MA, USA.
Background: Herpes simplex virus (HSV-1) has been associated with molecular and cellular signatures associated with Alzheimer's disease (AD). We explored the use of both recent single-cell and bulk transcriptomics technologies in dissecting the molecular and cellular virus-human interactions with HSV-1 infected cerebral organoids (2D and 3D). We compared the results with our previous observations from bulk RNA sequencing and discovered novel insights into HSV-1 induced AD-associated molecular pathology that were made possible by each transcriptomics technology.
