Porcine Lymphotropic Herpesviruses (PLHVs) and Xenotranplantation

Viruses, 2021
Porcine lymphotropic herpesviruses -1, -2 and -3 (PLHV-1, PLHV-2 and PLHV-3) are gammaherpesviruses which are widespread in pigs. They are closely related to the Epstein–Barr virus (EBV) and Kaposi sarcoma herpesvirus, both of which cause severe diseases

Studying the Interactions of U24 from HHV-6 in Order to Further Elucidate Its Potential Role in MS

Viruses, 2022
A number of studies have suggested that human herpesvirus 6A (HHV-6A) may play a role in multiple sclerosis (MS). Three possible hypotheses have been investigated: (1) U24 from HHV-6A (U24-6A) mimics myelin basic protein (MBP) through analogous ...

Human Herpesvirus-6A and -6B (HHV-6A and HHV-6B): The Role of Roseoloviruses in Neurological Dysfunction and the Mechanisms of Viral-Induced Epileptogenesis

Viruses
Human herpesvirus-6 consists of a pair of viral species, HHV-6A and HHV-6B, which are neurotropic with the ability to invade, persist, and reactivate within the nervous system.

Prevalence of the porcine cytomegalovirus virus (PCMV), a porcine roseolovirus, in wild boars in Italy and Germany

, 2022
Abstract Porcine cytomegalovirus (PCMV), which is a porcine roseolovirus (PRV), closely related to the human herpesviruses 6 and 7, is common among commercial pigs. PCMV/PRV was shown to be important in xenotransplantation because transmission of PCMV/PRV in preclinical trials transplanting pig organs into non-human primates was associated with

The first endogenous herpesvirus, identified in the tarsier genome, and novel sequences from primate rhadinoviruses and lymphocryptoviruses. [PDF]

PLoS Genetics, 2014
Herpesviridae is a diverse family of large and complex pathogens whose genomes are extremely difficult to sequence. This is particularly true for clinical samples, and if the virus, host, or both genomes are being sequenced for the first time.
