Tissue specific signature of HHV-6 infection in ME/CFS
First exposure to various human herpesviruses (HHVs) including HHV-6, HCMV and EBV does not cause a life-threatening disease. In fact, most individuals are frequently unaware of their first exposure to such pathogens. These herpesviruses acquire lifelong

Human MxB Protein Is a Pan-herpesvirus Restriction Factor
Human herpesviruses pose a constant threat to human health. Reactivation of persisting herpesvirus infections, particularly in immunocompromised individuals and the elderly, can cause severe diseases, such as zoster, pneumonia, encephalitis, or cancer ...
