Human viral encephalitis associated with suid herpesvirus 1 [PDF]
Abstract Background: Suid herpesvirus type 1 (SHV1) is a type of neurotropic virus able to infect various species. However, the clinical cases of human SHV1 encephalitis are still rarely reported, and the clinical characteristics, treatment, and prognosis of human SHV1 encephalitis are still unclear.Methods: In this study, we reported 2 cases ...

Genome Sequence of Human Herpesvirus 7 Strain UCL-1 [PDF]
ABSTRACT The sequence of human herpesvirus 7 (HHV-7) strain UCL-1 was determined using target enrichment and next-generation sequencing methods. We have identified 86 putative open reading frames (ORFs), and comparative sequence analyses demonstrate that this strain is closely related to the previously sequenced HHV-7 strains RK and JI.

A murine herpesvirus closely related to ubiquitous human herpesviruses causes T-cell depletion [PDF]
The human roseoloviruses human herpesvirus 6A (HHV-6A), HHV-6B, and HHV-7 comprise the Roseolovirus genus of the human Betaherpesvirinae subfamily. Infections with these viruses have been implicated in many

An alphaherpesvirus exploits antimicrobial beta-defensins to initiate respiratory tract infection [PDF]
beta-Defensins protect the respiratory tract against the myriad of microbial pathogens entering the airways with each breath. However, this potentially hostile environment is known to serve as a portal of entry for herpesviruses.

Complete genome sequence and taxonomic position of anguillid herpesvirus 1 [PDF]
Eel herpesvirus or anguillid herpesvirus 1 (AngHV1) frequently causes disease in freshwater eels. The complete genome sequence of AngHV1 and its taxonomic position within the family Alloherpesviridae were determined. Shotgun sequencing revealed a 249 kbp

Reciprocal Regulatory Interaction between Human Herpesvirus 8 and Human Immunodeficiency Virus Type 1 [PDF]
Human herpesvirus 8 (HHV8) is the primary viral etiologic agent in Kaposi's sarcoma (KS). However, individuals dually infected with both HHV8 and human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) show an enhanced prevalence of KS when compared with those singularly infected with HHV8.

Human Herpesvirus 1 in Wild Marmosets, Brazil, 2008
To the Editor: Human herpesvirus 1 (HHV-1) infections in New World monkey species, especially in the Callithrichid family, have been described (1–6), but most reports have discussed experimental infections or isolated spontaneous infections in pet, zoo, or research animals.

Human herpesvirus type 1 and type 2 disrupt mitochondrial dynamics in human keratinocytes [PDF]
Mitochondrial movement and distribution throughout the cytoplasm is crucial for maintaining cell homeostasis. Mitochondria are dynamic organelles but can be functionally disrupted during infection. Here, we show that the ubiquitous human pathogens HHV-1 and HHV-2 induce changes in the mitochondrial morphology and distribution in the early and late ...
