Infection of the peripheral nervous system was studied after inoculation of HSV into the flank skin of H-2 congenic mice. The amount of virus recovered from the sensory ganglia varied significantly between the mouse strains tested. Differences became apparent 7 d after infection, at which time the severity of disease in H-2k mice was two to three orders of magnitude greater than that in H-2d animals. The association of the H-2k haplotype with impaired ability to clear HSV from the nervous system is the first clear demonstration that genes within the MHC can influence the severity of primary herpetic infection, in spite of numerous studies on genetic resistance to this disease.

The retrospective analysis of case histories of HIV- infected persons is carried out. It is established that in 62 patients there were clinical manifestations of acute HIV-infection: lymphadenopathy (60%), fever (71,2%), eruption (6,5%), diarrhea (3%), herpetic infection (3%), body mass decrease (30%), neurologic symptomatology. The growth of the number of persons with fresh" infections HIV is noted in Kazan and in most regions of Tatarstan Republic. Expected increase of persons with acute stages of HIV infection taking medical advice demands being on guard of medical workers of various specialities.

Herpetic infection is a disease caused by herpes simplex virus types 1 and 2; it belongs to the category of TORCH infections along with toxoplasmosis, rubella and cytomegalovirus. Herpetic infection is widespread, and recently there has been an increase in the number of cases of herpetic lesions detected, which is most likely due to the expansion of the range of diagnostic tests. Herpes simplex virus type 1 most often affects the skin and mucous membranes, type 2 leads to damage to the urogenital tract. The source of infection can be either a sick person or an asymptomatic carrier. This disease can be transmitted by household contact, during sexual intercourse; the «vertical» route of transmission from mother to child is also known. Depending on the extent of the lesion, localized, widespread and generalized forms are distinguished; the course of herpes infection can be acute, subacute and chronic; latent course of the disease is often found. In addition to the skin and mucous membranes, the central nervous system and (less often) internal organs can be affected. A typical clinical manifestation of herpes simplex is small blistering eruptions that appear on the face, mucous membrane of the lips, wings of the nose, ears, limbs, gluteal folds. The eruptions are usually preceded by itching and hyperemia at the site of the lesion. Diagnosis of herpes infection is carried out on the basis of clinical data and laboratory tests of blood or vesicle contents. Treatment of the disease involves the prescription of antiviral drugs, symptomatic agents, and immunocorrective therapy. Complete removal of the virus from the body is usually impossible, but strengthening the defenses and normalizing the lifestyle contribute to a significant decrease in the frequency of possible relapses.
