Human Herpesvirus Sequencing in the Genomic Era: The Growing Ranks of the Herpetic Legion

Pathogens, 2019
The nine human herpesviruses are some of the most ubiquitous pathogens worldwide, causing life-long latent infection in a variety of different tissues. Human herpesviruses range from mild childhood infections to known tumour viruses and ‘trolls of ...

Modern data on the biology of Human Herpesvirus 6 and pathogenesis of Human Herpesvirus 6-associated clinical conditions (review of scientific publications)

Журнал инфектологии
Despite almost universal detection of human herpesvirus 6 in general population (up to 90% of individuals are considered seropositive), human herpesvirus 6-associated diseases remain poorly explored.

DNA Sensors’ Signaling in NK Cells During HHV-6A, HHV-6B and HHV-7 Infection

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2020
ObjectivesThe host DNA sensor proteins TLR9, STING, IFI16 are central signaling molecules that control the innate immune response to cytosolic nucleic acids. Here we propose to investigate how Natural killer (NK) cell infection by human herpesvirus (HHV)-

Kaposi’s sarcoma associated with chronic myeloid leukemia and imatinib mesylate therapy

Clinical Case Reports, 2022
Kaposi's sarcoma is associated with immunosuppression and human herpesvirus 8 infection, while rarely described in myeloid malignancies. Here, we illustrate a rare case of chronic myeloid leukemia treated with imatinib, a tyrosine kinase inhibitor, who ...

Salivary DNA Loads for Human Herpesviruses 6 and 7 Are Correlated With Disease Phenotype in Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

Frontiers in Medicine, 2021
Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (ME/CFS) is a complex chronic condition affecting multiple body systems, with unknown cause, unclear pathogenesis mechanisms, and fluctuating symptoms which may lead to severe debilitation.

Evidence for Tethering of Human Cytomegalovirus Genomes to Host Chromosomes

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2020
Tethering of viral genomes to host chromosomes has been recognized in a variety of DNA and RNA viruses. It can occur during both the productive cycle and latent infection and may impact viral genomes in manifold ways including their protection ...

Complete Genome Sequence of Germline Chromosomally Integrated Human Herpesvirus 6A and Analyses Integration Sites Define a New Human Endogenous Virus with Potential to Reactivate as an Emerging Infection

Viruses, 2016
Human herpesvirus-6A and B (HHV-6A, HHV-6B) have recently defined endogenous genomes, resulting from integration into the germline: chromosomally-integrated “CiHHV-6A/B”.

Kaposi’s Sarcoma-Associated Herpesvirus-Encoded circRNAs Are Expressed in Infected Tumor Tissues and Are Incorporated into Virions

mBio, 2020
Kaposi’s sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) has recently been found to generate circular RNAs (circRNAs) from several KSHV genes, most abundantly from K10 (viral interferon regulatory factor 4 [vIRF4]), K7.3, and polyadenylated nuclear (PAN) RNA.

Challenges, Recent Advances and Perspectives in the Treatment of Human Cytomegalovirus Infections

Tropical Medicine and Infectious Disease, 2022
Human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) is ubiquitous worldwide and elicits global health problems. The diseases associated with HCMV are a serious threat to humans, especially for the sick, infant, elderly and immunocompromised/immunodeficient individuals ...
