Primary Human Herpesvirus 7 Infection: A Comparison of Human Herpesvirus 7 and Human Herpesvirus 6 Infections in Children

open access: yesJournal of Pediatrics, 1998
To define the clinical and virologic characteristics of primary human herpesvirus 7 (HHV-7) infection and to compare these characteristics with those of primary human herpesvirus 6 (HHV-6) infection.A prospective convenience sample study of 496 children < or =3 years old. HHV-7 and HHV-6 infections were identified by viral isolation.

Human herpesvirus 7

Reviews in Medical Virology, 1993
Human herpesvirus 7, reported in 1990 is a lymphotropic member of the betaherpesvirus subfamily of herpesviruses. The virus is highly seroprevalent, primary infection usually occurs during childhood, and it has been associated with cases of exanthem subitum, pityriasis rosea, neurological manifestations and transplant complications.

Human herpesvirus 7

Expert Reviews in Molecular Medicine, 1997
Human herpesvirus 7 (HHV-7) is a recently described T-lymphotropic herpesvirus, which infects almost all children by the age of three years and persists lifelong, with the shedding of infectious virus in saliva. HHV-7 is similar to human herpesvirus 6 (HHV-6) in its genetic content and in many of its biological properties, which include the

Ultrastructure of human herpesvirus 7

Proceedings, annual meeting, Electron Microscopy Society of America, 1995
Human herpesvirus 7 (HHV-7) was originally isolated in 1989 from the peripheral blood lymphocytes of a healthy individual. Most children between 2 and 5 years of age develop antibodies against HHV-7, and the virus has recently been implicated as the causative agent in secondary episodes of the childhood disease roseola infantum.

Detection of human herpesvirus 7 in salivary glands

Archives of Oral Biology, 1997
The prevalence and cellular distribution of human herpesvirus 7 (HHV-7) in archival labial salivary glands was analysed for virus-specific DNA sequences by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and in situ hybridization signals. In addition, the cellular expression of HHV-7-encoded protein was detected by immunohistochemical staining with a virus-specific ...

Human herpesvirus 7 is latent in gastric mucosa

Journal of Medical Virology, 2001
Chronic gastritis is associated frequently with persistent infection by Helicobacter pylori. However, not all patients with chronic gastritis have evidence of H. pylori infection, suggesting that other factors might contribute to the development of gastritis. The present study was undertaken to evaluate a possible etiologic role of human herpesvirus 7 (

Reactivation of human herpesvirus 6 by infection of human herpesvirus 7

Journal of Medical Virology, 2000
We have attempted to reactivate human herpesvirus 6 (HHV-6) by infection with HHV-7 using childhood exanthem subitum patients in vitro. Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) were collected from children who had a history of exanthem subitum(ES) by HHV-6 and were infected by human herpesvirus 7 (HHV-7) in vitro.

Human herpesvirus-7 (HHV-7): current status

Clinical and Diagnostic Virology, 1995
Human herpesvirus-7 (HHV-7) is a newly discovered virus and very little is known about its prevalence, biologic, immunologic and molecular biology aspect. Besides the HHV-7 etiologic role in a few cases of exanthem subitum, its association with other diseases has not been reported.To review what is currently known about HHV-7.HHV-7 was first isolated ...

Human Herpesvirus 7 in Dermatology

American Journal of Clinical Dermatology, 2002
Human herpesvirus 7 (HHV-7) was discovered in 1989 as a new member of the beta-herpesvirus subfamily. Primary infection occurs early in life and manifests as exanthema subitum, or other febrile illnesses mimicking measles and rubella. Thus, HHV-7 has to be considered as a causative agent in a variety of macular-papular rashes in children.
