Neonatal herpes simplex virus (HSV) infection is a severe disease with high mortality and morbidity. To investigate the pathogenesis of neonatal HSV infection, we examined inflammatory responses and markers of apoptosis in patients with neonatal HSV infection. Concentrations of inflammatory cytokines and markers of apoptosis were significantly higher in patients with disseminated HSV infection and were correlated with HSV load. It appears that the immunopathological damage that results from host responses to viral infection leads to organ dysfunction in patients with neonatal HSV infection.
