The immunobiology of herpes simplex virus encephalitis and post-viral autoimmunity
Brain. 2023 Dec 13:awad419. doi: 10.1093/brain/awad419. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTHerpes simplex virus encephalitis (HSE) is the leading cause of non-epidemic encephalitis in the developed world and, despite antiviral therapy, mortality and morbidity is high. The emergence of post-HSE autoimmune encephalitis (AE) reveals a new immunological paradigm in autoantibody-mediated disease. A reductionist evaluation of the immunobiological mechanisms in HSE is crucial to dissect the origins of post-viral autoimmunity and supply rational approaches to the selection of immunotherapeutics. Herein, we review the latest evidence be...
