The etiology of many autoimmune diseases such as systemic lupus erythematosus, progressive systemic sclerosis (scleroderma), and psoriasis vulgaris remains unclear. Human endogenous retroviruses (HERVs) may be involved in the development of autoimmune disease. Some exogenous infections, such as herpes simplex virus, appear to be HERV activating factors. A possible relationship will be discussed between herpes simplex virus infection and the development of selected autoimmune diseases through a suggested mechanism facilitated by HERVs.
