Human Herpesvirus 6 and Malignancy: A Review [PDF]
In order to determine the role of human herpesvirus 6 (HHV-6) in human disease, several confounding factors, including methods of detection, types of controls, and the ubiquitous nature of the virus, must be considered.

HHV-6A infection induces amyloid-beta expression and activation of microglial cells. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: The control of viral infections in the brain involves the activation of microglial cells, the macrophages of the brain that are constantly surveying the central nervous system, and the production of amyloid-beta (Aβ) as an anti-microbial ...

Differential Impacts of HHV-6A versus HHV-6B Infection in Differentiated Human Neural Stem Cells [PDF]
Within the family Herpesviridae, sub-family β-herpesvirinae, and genus Roseolovirus, there areonly three human herpesviruses that have been described: HHV-6A, HHV-6B, and HHV-7.

Lymphoproliferative syndromes associated with human herpesvirus-6A and human herpesvirus-6B [PDF]
Human herpesvirus 6A and 6B (HHV-6A and HHV-6B) have been noted since their discovery for their T-lymphotropism. Although it has proven difficult to determine the extent to which HHV-6A and HHV-6B are involved in the pathogenesis of many diseases ...

Inherited chromosomally integrated human herpesvirus 6: demographics and disease [PDF]
Human herpesvirus (HHV) –6A and HHV-6B are unique among herpesviruses in their ability to integrate into the telomeres of human chromosomes and be inherited in a Mendelian fashion. Based on current data, inherited chromosomally integrated HHV-6 (iciHHV-6)

Investigating the Consequences of Herpesvirus Integration into Host Telomeres
The two species of human herpesvirus 6 (HHV-6A and HHV-6B) and chicken Marek's disease virus (MDV) include sequences homologous to (TTAGGG)n within their genomes and have the capacity to integrate into telomeres in their hosts.
