Herpes simplex virus type 1 penetrates the basement membrane in human nasal respiratory mucosa.
<h4>Background</h4>Herpes simplex virus infections are highly prevalent in humans. However, the current therapeutics suffer important drawbacks such as limited results in neonates, increasing occurrence of resistance and impeded treatment of stromal infections. Remarkably, interactions o...
