Sensitive detection systems for infectious agents in xenotransplantation*
Abstract Xenotransplantation of pig cells, tissues, or organs may be associated with transmission of porcine microorganisms, first of all of viruses, to the transplant recipient, potentially inducing a disease (zoonosis). I would like to define detection systems as the complex of sample generation, sample preparation, sample origin, time of sampling ...

HHV-6B is frequently found in the gastrointestinal tract in kidney transplantation patients. [PDF]
In immunosuppressed patients human herpesvirus 6 (HHV-6) reactivations are common. The aim of the study was to determine to which extent HHV-6 can be found in the gastrointestinal tract in kidney transplant recipients and in patients on chronic dialysis. The HHV-6 and cytomegalovirus (CMV) examinations were performed on gastro duodenal and colon biopsy

Comparative genomic, transcriptomic, and proteomic reannotation of human herpesvirus 6
Background Human herpesvirus-6A and -6B (HHV-6) are betaherpesviruses that reach > 90% seroprevalence in the adult population. Unique among human herpesviruses, HHV-6 can integrate into the subtelomeric regions of human chromosomes; when this occurs in ...

High incidence and viral load of HHV-6A in a multi-centre kidney transplant cohort
Human herpesvirus 6 (HHV-6) is a common opportunistic pathogen in kidney transplant recipients. Two distinct species of HHV-6, HHV-6A and HHV-6B, have been identified, of which the latter seems to be dominant. However, it is unclear whether they increase

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 =

Nectin-2 Acts as a Viral Entry Mediated Molecule That Binds to Human Herpesvirus 6B Glycoprotein B
Human herpesvirus 6B (HHV-6B) is a T-lymphotropic virus and the etiological agent of exanthem subitum. HHV-6B is present in a latent or persistent form after primary infection and is produced in the salivary glands or transmitted to this organ.

We report a functionalization‐mediated strategy to synthesize robust iron (Fe) atoms selectively coordinated at bridge sites on molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) nanosheets. The resulting b‐Fe‐MoS2 catalyst exhibits enhanced activity and durability for the hydrogen evolution reaction in proton exchange membrane water electrolyzers compared to atop ...

Infection with human herpesvirus (HHV)-6B alters cell cycle progression and stabilizes tumor suppressor protein p53. In this study, we have analyzed the activity of p53 after stimulation with p53-dependent and -independent DNA damaging agents during HHV ...

Temporal lobe epilepsy associated with human herpes virus 6
Human herpes virus 6 (HHV-6) is a ubiquitous and most common pathogen that affects humans. Human herpes virus 6B (HHV-6B) is a wide spread human herpesvirus that infects most people when they are children, establishes latent infections in the central ...
