Human herpesvirus (HHV) 6 is a beta-herpes, DNA virus. This virus shows closest homology with cytomegalovirus and HHV-7. Infection usually occurs in infants 6 to 24 months of age, and primary infection may result in roseola. HHV-6 infection in infants is the commonest cause of fever-induced seizures.

Human Herpesvirus 6 and Pneumonia
Leukemia & Lymphoma, 1994Studies of lung tissues and bronchoalveolar lavage specimens from patients with pneumonia have led some investigators to propose that human herpesvirus 6 (HHV-6) can cause pneumonia. As the etiologic role of HHV-6 in pneumonia remains poorly defined, cases of pneumonia that are associated with pulmonary HHV-6 infection are best described as HHV-6 ...

The Lancet, 1994
Multiple lines of clinical and experimental evidence suggest that human herpesvirus 6 (HHV-6) may act as an accelerating factor in the natural history of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection. Although, in common with HIV, HHV-6 has a primary tropism for CD4+ T cells, its potential effects on the immune system are broader.

Human herpesvirus 6 encephalitis
Current Infectious Disease Reports, 2008Human herpesvirus (HHV) 6, the etiologic agent of roseola, is nearly universally acquired during childhood. The virus establishes lifelong infection, including within the central nervous system (CNS), and replicates within several CNS cell types. HHV-6 has been linked to CNS disease during primary infection, including febrile seizures and possibly ...

Reviews in Medical Virology, 2000
Human herpesvirus 6 (HHV-6), a member of the beta-herpesvirinae subfamily, is highly seroprevalent, has a worldwide distribution, and infection usually occurs within the first two years of life. In this age group, HHV-6 causes febrile illness including exanthem subitum with seizures a recognised complication.

Human herpesvirus‐6 and ‐7 in transplantation
Reviews in Medical Virology, 2001AbstractInfections with the β‐herpesviruses human herpesvirus‐6 (HHV‐6) and human herpesvirus‐7 (HHV‐7) are ubiquitous in childhood. The immunosuppression secondary to organ or bone marrow transplantation together with posttransplantation management may favour viral replication and reactivation.

HUMAN HERPESVIRUS-6 VARIANT A ENCEPHALOMYELITIS
Neurology, 2008Human herpesvirus type 6 (HHV-6) is expressed in the form of two variants, A and B. These subtypes share a high level of sequence homology, but differ in their phenotype.1 HHV-6B is acquired early in life, and causes roseola, whereas HHV-6A is not linked to any clearly defined syndrome, is often acquired later in life, and appears to exhibit specific ...

Human herpesvirus 6 and drug allergy
Current Opinion in Allergy and Clinical Immunology, 2003The similarity between viral skin eruption and drug-induced rash has inspired many researchers to seek an association between viral infection and drug allergy. Hypersensitivity syndrome (referred to in this review as drug-induced hypersensitivity syndrome) is one of the severe adverse reactions to drugs and was reported more than 50 years ago. However,

Human herpesvirus 6 (HHV6) infection
The Indian Journal of Pediatrics, 2004Human herpes virus-6 was first reported in 1986 and is the sixth member of the herpes virus family. HHV-6 consists of two closely related variants HHV-6A and HHV-6B. The majority of infections occur in healthy infants with most infections caused by HHV-6B.

Human herpesvirus 6 and the nervous system
2014Abstract Human herpesvirus (HHV)-6 is a β-herpesvirus that infects most infants by 2 years of age and persists in a variety of host cells after primary infection, with intermittent reactivation typically during periods of immunosuppression. HHV-6 has two closely related species, HHV-6A and B, which are both neurotropic and can be detected in up to 85%
