Persistence of varicella-zoster virus DNA in blood mononuclear cells of patients with varicella or zoster.

Abstract:

:Varicella-zoster virus (VZV) DNA was detectable by in-situ hybridization in blood mononuclear cells (MNCs) of patients with varicella or zoster for 2-56 days after the onset of a rash. VZV DNA was present in many MNCs from one acute varicella patient 2 days after the onset of the rash and was rarely found in MNCs during acute zoster, convalescent zoster, and convalescent varicella. The morphology of MNCs containing VZV was heterogenous, although most viral-DNA-containing MNCs were large monocytoid cells. Serial examination of blood MNCs from one adult with varicella revealed VZV DNA up until 8 weeks, but not 16 weeks, after the appearance of the rash; parallel studies in four zoster patients showed VZV DNA up until 3 weeks, but not later than 7 weeks after the appearance of the rash. These results indicate that MNCs become infected with VZV during the primary encounter with VZV (varicella) and during reactivation (zoster) and that infection continues for weeks after the onset of the skin rash. Furthermore, the detection of VZV DNA in blood MNCs of uncomplicated zoster patients coincides with the period during which these patients experience pain.
