    Snippet: To determine if the clinical severity of HSV-1 disease is due to the observed deficiency in IFN-l expression, we screened a subset of the recurrent herpes labialis (HL) cohort and additional subjects for the IFN-l3 promoter polymorphism. Genotypic analysis found the presence of a T (CT or TT genotype) had a dose-dependent association with clinical severity, with the homozygous TT genotype being more prevalent as disease severity increases ( Figur.....
    Document: To determine if the clinical severity of HSV-1 disease is due to the observed deficiency in IFN-l expression, we screened a subset of the recurrent herpes labialis (HL) cohort and additional subjects for the IFN-l3 promoter polymorphism. Genotypic analysis found the presence of a T (CT or TT genotype) had a dose-dependent association with clinical severity, with the homozygous TT genotype being more prevalent as disease severity increases ( Figure 6 ). In spite of the relatively small sample numbers in some clinical categories (Table 1) , the association of a CT or TT genotype with the most severe recurrence of herpes labialis (H+) was statistically significant (p = 0.014; Fishers's exact t-test). As the CC genotype is directly associated with increased IFN-l3 levels [51] , these data highlight a previously unknown association between the frequency/severity of recurrence of herpes labialis, the CT/TT genotype and subsequent reduction in secretion of IFN-l3. It is of importance to investigate this genotype association with a larger cohort of HL patients, as well as those suffering with other HSV-1-related disease, in order to determine the role of IFN-l in the full spectrum of HSV-1 pathogenesis.
