Acute and latent infections in ganglia of micea
| Virus | Titer in ganglia (log meanb ± SE) | Ganglia reactivating/ total ganglia |
|---|---|---|
| KOS | 5.2 ± 0.1 (4) | 8/8 |
| hTK1 | 5.4 ± 0.1 (2) | 6/6 |
| hTK2 | 3.1 ± 0.8 (2) | 5/6 |
| hTMPK1 | 1.0 ± 0 (2) | 2/6 |
| hTMPK2 | 2.2 ± 0.8 (2) | 3/6 |
| hdCK1 | <1 (2) | 0/6 |
| hdCK2 | <1 (2) | 0/6 |
| tkLTRZ1 | <1 (4) | 0/8 |
a
Mice were inoculated corneally with 2 × 106 PFU of the indicated viruses. Three days postinfection, ganglia were harvested and titrated for virus; 30 days postinfection, ganglia were harvested for reactivation of latent virus by a dissociation assay. The number of samples titrated for each group is shown in parentheses.
b
Calculated by averaging the logs of the titers.
