ASSOCIATION OF HUMAN HERPES VIRUS 6A INFECTION IN ENDOMETRIAL EPITHELIAL CELLS WITH MISCARRIAGE [PDF]
Background: The microbial infections are major cause in abortion, of which viruses appear to be the most frequently involved pathogens. Human Herpes Virus-6 (HHV-6) has been implicated in cases of poor pregnancy outcome.

Herpesvirus-host interactions in neurological diseases: the immunogenetic role of HLA-E [PDF]
Human herpesviruses (HHVs) comprise nine pathogenic members, including herpes simplex virus 1, herpes simplex virus 2, varicella-zoster virus, Epstein–Barr virus, human cytomegalovirus, human herpesvirus 6A/B, human herpesvirus 7, and Kaposi’s sarcoma ...

Cloning human herpes virus 6A genome into bacterial artificial chromosomes and study of DNA replication intermediates [PDF]
Cloning of large viral genomes into bacterial artificial chromosomes (BACs) facilitates analyses of viral functions and molecular mutagenesis. Previous derivations of viral BACs involved laborious recombinations within infected cells. We describe a single-step production of viral BACs by direct cloning of unit length genomes, derived from circular or ...

A multiplex PCR assay was developed that enabled the simultaneous detection of DNA from 6 types of human herpes virus, HSV-1/2, VZV, EBV, CMV, HHV-6A/B, and HHV-7, using appropriate primer sets and conventional PCR techniques and instruments, with PCR products for each type of virus designed to be easily distinguishable by size.
