Quantitative detection of HHV-6 and HHV-7 in transbronchial biopsies from lung transplant recipients.
The occurrence and significance of HHV-6 and HHV-7 were investigated in pulmonary tissue from lung transplant recipients. Eighty-seven transbronchial biopsies from 30 patients were studied by quantitative real-time PCR; the association with histopathological features was investigated. HHV-6 and HHV-7-DNA were detected in 6.9% and 9.2% transbronchial biopsies, respectively. A significant associa...
متن کاملA pilot study on the antibodies to HHV-6 variants and HHV-7 in CSF of MS patients.
In the possible role for human herpesviruses (HHV) in the pathogenesis of multiple sclerosis (MS) neither clear distinction between the two variants of HHV-6, nor the involvement of HHV-7 have been described. Therefore, we quantitated HHV-6 variant specific and HHV-7 reacting antibodies in the CSF of 13 patients with MS or other neurological disorders by ELISA. Predominance in the positivity of...
متن کاملInfection of CD34(+) hematopoietic progenitor cells by human herpesvirus 7 (HHV-7).
To investigate the tropism of the T-lymphotropic human herpesvirus 7 (HHV-7) for hematopoietic progenitors, cord blood CD34(+) cells were inoculated in vitro with HHV-7 and then induced to differentiate along the granulocytic and erythroid lineages by the addition of appropriate cytokine cocktails. In semisolid assays, HHV-7 modestly affected the growth of committed (granulocytic/macrophagic an...
متن کاملThe new lymphotropic herpesviruses (HHV-6, HHV-7, HHV-8) and hepatitis C virus (HCV) in human lymphoproliferative diseases: an overview.
Considerable evidence has been accumulating in favor of a possible involvement of viral agents in the pathogenesis of human lymphomas. The most recent proposal for a lymphoma classification, the Revised European-American Classification, emphasized for the first time the pathogenetic importance of two viruses, namely Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) and human T lymphotropic virus I (HTLV-I) in the devel...
متن کاملThe Human Herpesvirus-7 (HHV-7) U21 Immunoevasin Subverts NK-Mediated Cytoxicity through Modulation of MICA and MICB
Herpesviruses have evolved numerous immune evasion strategies to facilitate establishment of lifelong persistent infections. Many herpesviruses encode gene products devoted to preventing viral antigen presentation as a means of escaping detection by cytotoxic T lymphocytes. The human herpesvirus-7 (HHV-7) U21 gene product, for example, is an immunoevasin that binds to class I major histocompati...
