PUBMED DOIAdditional Information
Our group is interested in infections caused by the 8 known human herpes, which are very important etiological agents due to the high rates of infection, as well as their morbidity and mortality, especially in situations in which the immune system is immature (pediatric disease), senescent (pathologies in advanced age) or immunocompromised (transplanted).
They form a very heterogeneous group, but once the infection occurs, it persists for life through its latency phases. The pathogenicity of alpha- and beta-herpesviruses is related to primary infection and its recurrences, but in gamma-herpesviruses their main pathogenicity lies in their ability to produce tumors.
The main objective of the group is to respond to the medical problems caused by these infections from a multidisciplinary point of view, which includes virological, immunological and molecular aspects.
At present, the group's specific research objectives focus mainly on two topics:
Pathogenicity markers in congenital cytomegalovirus disease that modulate the immune system during infection and
Molecular characterization of the varicella zoster virus in cases of vaccine failure. The group's IP is part as a promoter partner of Spin-off: Virnóstica-ISCIII
