SARS-CoV-2 Infection Associated with HHV-6A Reactivation and an Inhibitory KIR2DL2/HLA-C1 Immunogenetic Profile [PDF]
Natural killer (NK) cells are central to antiviral immunity through a balance of activating and inhibitory receptors, including killer immunoglobulin-like receptors (KIRs).

Associations of Inherited Chromosomally-Integrated Human Herpesvirus 6 With Dementia Incidence, Inflammation, and Other Dementia Risk Factors in the UK Biobank. [PDF]
ABSTRACT The infection theory of dementia states that viral infections and chronic inflammation play a role in its pathogenesis. We aimed to test whether testing positive for inherited chromosomally‐integrated human herpesvirus 6 (iciHHV‐6) is associated with an increased dementia incidence, inflammation, and other dementia risk factors. We included n =

Enhanced virus reconstitution of human herpesvirus 6A (HHV-6A)
Background Human herpesvirus 6A (HHV-6A) is a member of the betaherpesvirus family and is associated with neurotropic diseases. Despite its clinical significance, HHV-6A research has been hampered by challenges in the generation of recombinant viruses.

HHV-8-unrelated primary effusion-like lymphoma associated with clonal loss of inherited chromosomally-integrated human herpesvirus-6A from the telomere of chromosome 19q [PDF]
Primary effusion lymphomas (PEL) are associated with human herpesvirus-8 (HHV-8) and usually occur in immunocompromised individuals. However, there are numerous reports of HHV-8-unrelated PEL-like lymphomas with unknown aetiology. Here we characterize an

The clinical and epidemiological features of HHV-6A and HHV-6B infections in children of Moscow [PDF]
Human herpes virus type 6 (HHV-6) is the etiological agent of plenty diseases. The form of the developing pathology depends on the localization of the virus in T-lymphocytes and on virus type: HHV-6A or HHV-6B, but identification of the type is possible ...

The Telomeric Repeats of HHV-6A Do Not Determine the Chromosome into Which the Virus Is Integrated. [PDF]
Human herpes virus 6A (HHV-6A) is able to integrate into the telomeric and subtelomeric regions of human chromosomes representing chromosomally integrated HHV-6A (ciHHV-6A). The integration starts from the right direct repeat (DRR) region. It has been shown experimentally that perfect telomeric repeats (pTMR) in the DRR region are required for the ...

Inherited chromosomally integrated (ici) human herpes virus 6 (HHV-6) is estimated to occur in 0.6–2.7% of people worldwide. HHV-6 comprises two distinct species: HHV-6A and HHV-6B. Both HHV-6A and HHV-6B integration have been reported. Several drugs are

Diagnostic value of HHV-6A/B genotyping in immunocompromised adults. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Human herpesvirus 6 (HHV-6) comprises two genetically and biologically distinct species, HHV-6A and HHV-6B, yet species-level differentiation is rarely performed in clinical practice. We conducted a retrospective study of 119 immunocompromised adults with detectable HHV-6 DNA between ...
