Potential Application of the CRISPR/Cas9 System against Herpesvirus Infections. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The CRISPR/Cas9 system has been applied in the genome editing and disruption of latent infections for herpesviruses such as the herpes simplex virus, Epstein⁻Barr virus, cytomegalovirus, and Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus.

Multiple human herpesvirus-8 infection [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
In Malawian patients with Kaposi sarcoma (KS) and their relatives, we investigated nucleotide-sequence variation in human herpesvirus-8 (HHV-8) subgenomic DNA, amplified from oral and blood samples by use of polymerase chain reaction.

Animal models of human herpesvirus 6 infection

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2013
Human herpesvirus (HHV)-6A and HHV-6B are two enveloped DNA viruses of β-herpesvirus family, infecting over 90% of the population and associated with several diseases, including exanthema subitum (for HHV-6B), multiple sclerosis and encephalitis ...

Genome signatures, self-organizing maps and higher order phylogenies: a parametric analysis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Genome signatures are data vectors derived from the compositional statistics of DNA. The self-organizing map (SOM) is a neural network method for the conceptualisation of relationships within complex data, such as genome signatures.

Human Herpesvirus 6 and Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

open access: yesCanadian Journal of Infectious Diseases, 1993
The cause of chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) is still enigmatic. Using indirect immunofluorescence testing for measuring antibody against human herpesvirus 6 (HHV-6), this study investigated the association of CFS with infection by HHV-6.

Association of human herpesvirus 6 infection with exanthem subitum in Belem, Brazil Exantema súbito associado a infecção pelo herpesvírus humano tipo 6 em Belém, Brasil

open access: yesRevista do Instituto de Medicina Tropical de São Paulo, 1995
Recent human herpesvirus 6 (HHV-6) infection was detected in cases of exanthem subitum (ES) involving four children, aged 10 to 24 months, between April and August 1994, in Belém, Brazil.

Risk factors for high anti-HHV-8 antibody titers (≥1:51,200) in black, HIV-1 negative South African cancer patients: a case control study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
Background: Infection with human herpesvirus 8 (HHV-8) is the necessary causal agent in the development of Kaposi's sarcoma (KS). Infection with HIV-1, male gender and older age all increase risk for KS.

An alphaherpesvirus exploits antimicrobial beta-defensins to initiate respiratory tract infection [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
beta-Defensins protect the respiratory tract against the myriad of microbial pathogens entering the airways with each breath. However, this potentially hostile environment is known to serve as a portal of entry for herpesviruses.
