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.

Human herpesvirus 6 infection.
Zhonghua Minguo xiao er ke yi xue hui za zhi [Journal]. Zhonghua Minguo xiao er ke yi xue hui, 1997Human herpesvirus 6 (HHV-6) was identified in 1986 and roseola infantum was the first disease linked to HHV-6. To date, a large variety of clinical syndromes have been associated with HHV-6. Age of the patient is the most important factor when considering HHV-6 as a possible cause of infection.

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 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.

Pathogenicity of Human Herpesvirus-6
1994Human herpesvirus-6 (HHV-6) is a recently discovered lymphotropic virus. Serologic evidence indicates a high incidence of HHV-6 antibody in almost all areas of the world, and most children are infected by 2 years of age. HHV-6 can productively infect CD4+ lymphocytes, but CD4 does not appear to be used by the virus as its primary receptor.

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%
