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.

HHV-6, the first T-lymphotropic human herpesvirus, is an important novel human pathogen. It is the cause of exanthem subitum in infants and may act as an opportunistic agent in immunocompromised patients. Moreover, several lines of clinical and experimental evidence suggest that HHV-6 may accelerate the progression of HIV infection.

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 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 ...

Chromosomally integrated human herpesvirus 6 in the Japanese population
Journal of Medical Virology, 2018The objectives of the work are to elucidate the incidence and virological findings of chromosomally integrated human herpesvirus 6 (ciHHV‐6) in Japanese population and to analyze an association between ciHHV‐6 and the clinical manifestation of exanthema ...

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 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 ...

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 ...

Multiple Sclerosis and Human Herpesvirus 6
Infection, 2002A possible but as yet unproven relationship has been proposed between the onset or persistence of multiple sclerosis (MS) symptoms and herpesviruses, including, most recently, human herpesvirus 6 (HHV-6). A study was conducted to investigate the presence of HHV-6 DNA and the synthesis of antibodies against HHV-6, cytomegalovirus (CMV) and Epstein-Barr ...

The association of the human herpesvirus-6 and MS
Multiple Sclerosis Journal, 1999Given the clinical and pathological nature of multiple sclerosis (MS), a viral infection has long been hypothesized as part of the etiology. In this study we investigated the possibility that the human herpesvirus-6 (HHV-6) is present in a dormant or active phase in the tissue of MS patients, specifically oligodendrocytes.
