No More Cold Sores? Scientists Find Cellular Process That Fights Herpes Virus

Fights Herpes Virus

ScienceDaily (Mar. 24, 2009) — Scientists have discovered a new way for our immune system to combat the elusive virus responsible for cold sores: Type 1 herpes simplex (HSV-1). As reported in the advance online edition of Nature Immunology, a group of virus hunters from the Université de Montréal, in collaboration with American colleagues, have identified a cellular process that seeks out and fights herpes.

The five-year study, partially supported by the Canadian Institutes of Health Research, was a joint project with Washington University and Pennsylvania State University.

“Once human cells are infected with Type 1 herpes simplex, the virus comes back because it hides and blocks protection from our immune system,” says Luc English, the study’s lead author and a doctoral student at the Université de Montréal’s Department of Pathology and Cell Biology. “For the first time, our research team has identified a combative cellular mechanism in this game of hide-and-seek.”

“We’ve found that the nuclear membrane of an infected cell can unmask Type 1 herpes simplex and stimulate the immune system to disintegrate the virus,” says English.

The team made its discovery while conducting various tests in HSV-1 infected mice cells. They replicated environments when Type 1 herpes simplex thrives, namely periods of low-grade fever between 38.5 to 39 degrees, and found that herpes-fighting mechanisms were unleashed.

The research team now plans to study how activation of the herpes-combating cellular process could be applied to other illnesses. The outcome could hasten the development of therapies to prevent other immune-evading bacteria, parasites and viruses. “Our goal is to further study the molecules implicated in this mechanism to eventually develop therapies against diseases such as HIV or even cancer,” says English.

According to Dr. Michel Desjardins, senior author and a professor in the Department of Pathology and Cell Biology at the Université de Montréal, treatment options might be imaginable in a decade.

“Now that we’ve identified the novel mechanism in cells that activate immune response to Type 1 herpes simplex, scientists are one step closer to creating new treatments that can activate the defence against this and other viruses,” says Dr. Desjardins. “While it may not be possible to completely eradicate Type 1 herpes simplex in people who are already infected, at the very least, future therapies may be able to keep the virus in its dormant state.”

This study was funded by the Canadian Institutes of Health Research, the Natural Science and Engineering Research Council of Canada, the Fonds de la Recherche en Santé du Québec, the U.S. National Institutes of Health and the foundation Research to Prevent Blindness.

About Herpes

There are two types of herpes viruses: Type 1 herpes simplex causes facial cold sores and Type 2 causes genital herpes. Both types of herpes affect an estimated 80 million people in America alone and there is currently no cure for the condition.

Note: Its nice to think that a cure for cold sores and herpes may happen some day.  Scientific advances will win eventually, but until then thousands of people will continue to use Virasoothe for Cold Sores and Herpes as the weapon of choice to give ultimate relief from the nasty symptoms

Looking FOWARD to getting Cold Sores??

I received this email today, it makes me laugh to think some one is looking forward to getting Cold Sores so they can “blast” them with Virasoothe. I know what she means though:)
Hi Lynda

Virasoothe Testimony

March 11th, 2010

13 years I have been selling my products online and I STILL get the biggest thrill when I get these kinds of unsolicited comments:)

“I have used simply essencials for about 4 years.  After my
initial testing of the product,  and 2 small cold sores
after, i havent had one for 2 years.  This stuff is a
miracle!  I am only ordering more because it also works
great on chapped lips.  I am cold sore free, thanks.” Roman

This customer email bought me close to tears

I feel so sorry for this little boy – and his entire family.he is suffering so much.  I’m sure both SkinFix and Shuzi will help, but in a case this bad I think he probably needs every tool available. Maybe Colloidial silver? Emu Oil? Aloe Vera Gel?  I will suggest everything I can think of in the hope that his eczema can be improved.

“Dear Lynda. A few years ago I was told of your product to cure cold sores, I have tried it and with great success, the reason I am writing is our grandson (who is 8 years old) suffers with the worst type of eczema,that is any crease in the body IE under arm/leg joints/neck/ears fingers/ everywhere the doctors and hospitals have tried nearly everything but it still comes back, do you think that your product could help the little fella, as it is stopping him from school quite often, and when he cries with it you can not cuddle him which it is very painful for him and us to see. We look forward to your reply” (name removed)


Cold Sore Emergency

March 10th, 2010

Someone I know only by sight knocked on my door, as they had heard I sold “some kind of amazing product for cold sores.” (Gotta love living in a small country town – iI can’t magine that happening in the city!)

He was on his way to work, as he felt the first alarming tingle. I gave him a little bit of Virasoothe to put on, and within a few minutes he said “Good God! I think it has gone.”

He just phoned to place an order and tell me that “For sure, Virasoothe is a miracle. It really did stop the cold sore in it’s tracks!”

As I said to him, “With any luck, you will be among the % of users who never get another cold sore. It doesn’t happen that way for everyone, but it does happen for a lot of folk.”

One happy customer, and it makes me feel so good to know I help

Nostalgia

March 3rd, 2010

As I work my way through the plethora of things that must be attended to in order to get my new site up and running it reminds me of how many times I have done this, and just how long I have been on selling on the Internet.

I feel like an internet dinasour – I even predate google by a few years!

My first site was such a humble affair, but I was SO proud of it – and it sold, unbelievable as it sounds.  It makes me smile to look at it.  The earliest date in the internet archives is 1998, but I actually went live in ‘97 – maybe the archives weren’t around then?

Have a look at this if you are curious   http://web.archive.org/web/19981207034136/http://www.huggers.com/

Many, many changes and sites have taken place over the years.  It is astounding how much technology has changed.

I have been selling SkinFix for skin problems, and Virasoothe for cold sores and herpes for 13 years now.  I lost count years ago of the number of customers I have, but it is in the 10’s of thousands.  Thats’ a lot of healing!

I still get the same warm fuzzies when customers send in testimonials, that never changes.  But my, how the net has grown!  In my first couple of years, I used to get cards and presents from happy customers, (usually in the USA) I still personally answer emails, but I can’t Imagine that happening now – :)

I am in New Zealand, as you most likely know, but good news travels just as it always has. I received an order recently, along with a comment

“My hairdresser in London recommended Virasoothe for cold sores.”  It made me smile, just thinking of all the chatty stuff that goes on in salons – and apparently London is no different!

I have been (still am) very fortunate to still be working from home, choosing hours to suit, or working while I travel. Not too many business afford so much freedom and to my loyal exisitng customers, and all the new ones yet to come, I say ‘thank you’
