Structural homology of HHV-6B epitopes as candidates for molecular mimicry triggers of the onset type one diabetes mellitus [PDF]
Objectives To study whether HHV-6B can act as a molecular mimic to trigger onset of Type One Diabetes Mellitus (T1DM) by assessing structural and binding similarities between HHV-6B derived epitopes and T1DM autoantigen derived epitopes.

A Viral–Host Immunogenetic Interaction Model in Hodgkin Lymphoma: Co-Association of HHV-6B Infection and IL-18 rs1946518 Polymorphism [PDF]
Background: Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) arises from germinal center B cells through complex viral, genetic, and environmental factors. This study examines HHV-6B infection and the IL-18 rs1946518 polymorphism as potential contributors to inflammation-driven HL

Identification of Two Competition‐Defined Neutralizing Antibody Groups Targeting the HHV‐6B gH/gL/gQ1/gQ2 Complex Independent of CD134 Binding [PDF]
Human herpesvirus 6B (HHV‐6B) entry is mediated by the interaction between gH/gL/gQ1/gQ2 complex (tetramer) and CD134 expressed on activated T cells. In this study, we identified and characterized a panel of monoclonal antibodies targeting the HHV‐6B ...

Detection of HHV-5 HHV-6a HHV-6b and HHV-7 in the urine: potential use as a non-invasive diagnostic tool for immune profiling [PDF]
Decline in immune function with age has been studied extensively, but approaches to immune restoration have been hampered by the lack of simple methods of identifying individuals whose immune system is in decline.

HHV-6A and HHV-6B in Autoimmune Disease
A role for HHV-6 has been proposed in several autoimmune disorders (ADs), including multiple sclerosis (MS), autoimmune connective tissue diseases, and Hashimoto's thyroiditis. There are several potential mechanisms by which HHV-6 might induce autoimmune responses.

HHV-6B induces IFN-lambda1 responses in cord plasmacytoid dendritic cells through TLR9.
Human herpesvirus type 6B (HHV-6B) is a strong inducer of IFN-alpha and has the capacity to promote Th1 responses and block Th2 responses in vitro. In this study we addressed whether inactivated HHV-6B can also induce IFN lambda responses and to what ...

Evaluation of a method to measure HHV-6B infection in vitro based on cell size. [PDF]
Human herpesvirus 6 (HHV-6A and HHV-6B) infection of cell cultures can be measured by different methods, including immunofluorescence microscopy, flow cytometry, or quantification of virus DNA by qPCR. These methods are reliable and sensitive but require long processing times and can be costly.

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 ...
