Descripción
Herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) is associated with eye infections. Specifically, the acute consequences of eye infections have been extensively studied. This review gathers information on possible collateral damage caused by HSV-1 in the retina, such as age-related macular degeneration (AMD), a neurodegenerative disease. The synthesis and accumulation of Amyloid-β peptide (Aβ) is a key hallmark in these types of pathologies. AMD is a disease of multifactorial origin, and viral infections play an important role in its development. It is known that once this virus has entered the eye, it can infect adjacent cells, thus having the ability to infect almost any cell type with great tropism. In the retina, retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) cells are primarily involved in AMD. This work reviews publications that show that RPE can produce Aβ, and once they are infected by HSV-1, the release is promoted. Also, all the information available in the literature that explains how these events may be interconnected has been compiled. This information is valuable when planning new treatments for multifactorial neurodegenerative diseases.
