    Document: The herpesviruses are a group of large DNA viruses causing lytic, persistent, and latent/recurrent infections [65] . The human herpesviruses (HHV) are further divided into three subfamilies, alphaherpesvirinae [including herpes simplex virus-1 (HSV-1), herpes simplex virus-2 (HSV-2), and varicella-zoster virus (VZV)], betaherpesvirinae, and gammaherpesvirinae based on the differences in factors such as tissue tropism, pathogenesis, and site of latent infection [66] .
