Defects of the Innate Immune System and Related Immune Deficiencies
AbstractThe innate immune system is the host ’s first line of defense against pathogens. Toll-like receptors (TLRs) are pattern recognition receptors that mediate recognition of pathogen-associated molecular patterns. TLRs also activate signaling transduction pathways involved in host defense, inflammation, development, and the production of inflammatory cytokines. Innate immunodeficiencies associated with defective TLR signaling include mutations inNEMO,IKBA,MyD88, andIRAK4. Other innate immune defects have been associated with susceptibility to herpes simplex encephalitis, viral infections, and mycobacterial disease, a...

Treatment with Intravenous Acyclovir Desensitization for Severe Acyclovir Allergy: A Case of Herpes Encephalitis
Mikrobiyol Bul. 2022 Apr;56(2):371-376. doi: 10.5578/mb.20229816.ABSTRACTHerpes simplex virus (HSV) is a sporadic viral encephalitis agent that causes high mortality and morbidity, accompanied by neurological dysfunction findings. Acyclovir is the only antiviral treatment option that should be initiated in all patients with suspected encephalitis as soon as possible. Acyclovir is rarely possible to cause allergic reactions. It may occur in a wide range from generalized cutaneous rash to Stevens-Johnson syndrome. A case of HSV-1 encephalitis who had no treatment option other than intravenous acyclovir and was successfully t...
