Evolutionary analysis of exogenous and integrated HHV-6A/HHV-6B populations [PDF]
Human betaherpesviruses 6A and 6B (HHV-6A and HHV-6B) are highly prevalent in human populations. The genomes of these viruses can be stably integrated at the telomeres of human chromosomes and be vertically transmitted (inherited chromosomally integrated

Classification of HHV-6A and HHV-6B as distinct viruses. [PDF]
Shortly after the discovery of human herpesvirus 6 (HHV-6), two distinct variants, HHV-6A and HHV-6B, were identified. In 2012, the International Committee on Taxonomy of Viruses (ICTV) classified HHV-6A and HHV-6B as separate viruses. This review outlines several of the documented epidemiological, biological, and immunological distinctions between HHV-

A Sensitive Quantification of HHV-6B by Real-time PCR [PDF]
Human herpesvirus (HHV)-6B is a pathogen causing latent infection in virtually all humans. Nevertheless, the interaction of HHV-6B with its host cells is poorly understood. Although HHV-6B is approximately 90% homologous to HHV-6A, it expresses certain B-

Uncovering the Cause of Pneumonia: Reactivation of HHV-6B in an Immunocompromised Patient [PDF]
Human herpesvirus 6 (HHV-6) is a ubiquitous virus that commonly infects the paediatric population and establishes latency in the host following primary infection.

Outcomes of Haploidentical Stem Cell Transplant Recipients With HHV-6B Reactivation [PDF]
Background Human herpesvirus 6B (HHV-6B) frequently reactivates following allogeneic stem cell transplant (alloHCT). Consensus guidelines note that haploidentical alloHCT may represent a high-risk population for which there is little evidence; this ...

HHV-6B ribonucleotide reductase sequesters NF-κB subunit p65 to inhibit innate immune responses [PDF]
Summary Human herpesvirus 6B (HHV-6B) belongs to the genus Roseolovirus of the betaherpesvirus subfamily, causing exanthema subitum and encephalitis.

HHV-6B infection after umbilical cord blood stem cell transplantation with pruritus as the first symptom [PDF]
Bone marrow hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (BMT) is one of the most effective treatments for hematological malignancies, and cord blood hematopoietic stem cell transplantation is one of them [1].

Oral Brincidofovir Decreased the Incidence of HHV-6B Viremia after Allogeneic HCT. [PDF]
Human herpesvirus 6B (HHV-6B) frequently reactivates after allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT). There are no randomized studies of antiviral treatments to prevent HHV-6B reactivation.

Quantitative HHV-6B antigenemia test for the monitoring of transplant patients [PDF]
Human herpesvirus-6 (HHV-6) infection, mostly caused by variant B, is common after transplantation. Here, we report a new modified method using an HHV-6B glycoprotein IgG antibody, OHV-3, and attempt to quantify the HHV-6 antigenemia after liver transplantation.
