Zoonoses impact human health and the availability of primate resources for research.
Neurotropic herpesviruses in primates can cause severe or fatal infections upon transmission.

Purpose of the Study:

To review the natural history and pathogenic potential of simian alpha-herpesviruses.
To summarize recent molecular biology research on these viruses.
To discuss advances in diagnostic test development.

Main Methods:

Literature review of simian alpha-herpesviruses.
Summary of natural history and pathogenesis.
