title: [IgM, IgG and IgG subclass antibodies to herpes simplex virus in persons of different ages].
abstract: IgM, IgG antibodies to herpes simplex virus and their subclases were investigated in 565 subjects of different age tested at virological laboratories of St. Petersburg in 1996-1997. The majority of these subjects had a history of herpes infection and 21.5% had IgM antibodies to herpes simplex virus (HSV), marker of acute herpetic infection. Besides IgM, IgG1 antibodies can be referred to early antibodies appearing during the acute stage of herpetic infection. The predominant subclass was HSV IgG3 antibodies. As for IgG4, they were completely absent in infants aged under 1 year, were detected in 6.2% children aged under 14 years, and were present in 12.2-12.5% adults.
