| [molecular-epidemiological and phylogenic analysis of herpes simplex virus type 1 from seven areas in japan]. | two-hundred and seventy-five epidemiologically unrelated herpes simplex virus type 1 (hvs-1) strains isolated from seven areas (sapporo, akita, nagoya, kyoto, tottori, kagawa and kurume) in japan were compared with the standard laboratory strain f, based on cleavage analysis of hsv-1 dnas with three restriction endonucleases, bamhi, kpni and sali. the results obtained were as follows: 1) using gains and losses of 19 cleavage sites selected from 114 sites, the total of 275 strains could be classi ... | 1989 | 2562408 |
| [localization of a variant of herpes simplex virus type 1 in the western japan]. | we previously reported that a variant of herpes simplex virus type 1, which we found by bg1 ii digestion of many japanese hsv-1 isolates' dna's, was isolated frequently in two regions of western japan, i.e. yamaguchi and fukuoka. in this paper, we analyzed 280 more isolates from eleven regions in japan. in four western regions of japan, i.e. osaka, shimane, yamaguchi, and fukuoka, the isolation frequency of the variant was very high, and its proportion among all the isolates from those regions w ... | 1989 | 2545798 |
| adenovirus infection in patients with kawasaki disease. | two outbreaks of kawasaki disease at different times and areas (kyoto in 1982 and sapporo in 1985) of japan were studied retrospectively for the presence of antibodies to adenoviruses and herpesviruses. only 2 of 12 (16.7%) consecutive acute phase sera of patients from the outbreak in 1982 and 1 of 10 (10.0%) sera from 1985 showed positive antibodies for the common adenovirus antigen by a complement fixation (cf) test, whereas 10 of 16 (62.5%) age- and sex-matched controls during the outbreak of ... | 1990 | 2173738 |
| virology and histopathology of the trigeminal ganglia of americans and japanese. | herpes simplex virus in the trigeminal ganglia of humans was studied in philadelphia, pennsylvania, united states of america, and in kyoto, japan. the prevalence of recurrent herpes labialis and of clinically latent herpes simplex virus within trigeminal ganglia was determined in inhabitants of the two cities. in addition, a comparison was made of the prevalence of mononuclear cell infiltration in the trigeminal ganglia of americans and japanese. recurrent herpes labialis was found to be signifi ... | 1978 | 217518 |
