Research is underway to develop a vaccine to prevent and cure infection from herpes simplex virus (HSV). It emphasizes the critical need for immunization to address public health issues and the shortcomings of existing treatment options. Furthermore, studies on the HSV vaccine advance the field of immunology and vaccine creation, which may help in the battle against other viral illnesses. The current lack of such a vaccine is, in part, due to herpes viral latency in sensory ganglions. Current vaccines rely on tissue-resident memory CD8+ T cells, which are known to provide protection against subsequent HSV reinfection and reactivation without correlating with other immune subsets. For that reason, there is no effective vaccine that can provide protection against latent or recurrent herpes infection. This review focuses on conventional methods for evaluating the efficacy of a herpes vaccine using differential CD8+ T cells and important unaccounted immune aspects for designing an effective vaccine against herpes. |
