Herpes simplex virus infection and Alzheimer’s disease

Ji-Yeun Hur

Over 95% of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is caused by a complex mixture of genetic and environmental factors. This is called sporadic AD or late-onset AD, and much of its pathological mechanisms remain unclear. There is growing evidence indicating that the viral infection, such as herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1), triggers and worsens the AD progression in combination with the APOE4 genotype in AD patients. The innate immunity of host cells produces proinflammatory cytokines, which further drive neuroinflammation in …
