Human herpesvirus 6 (HHV-6) reactivation and HHV-6 encephalitis after allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation: a multicenter, prospective study.
BACKGROUND The epidemiology of human herpesvirus 6 (HHV-6) encephalitis after allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) and its relationship with HHV-6 reactivation have not been sufficiently characterized. METHODS This prospective, multicenter study of 230 allogeneic HCT recipients investigated the epidemiology of HHV-6 reactivation and HHV-6 encephalitis. Plasma HHV-6 DNA load was...
متن کاملLymphotropic herpes virus (EBV, HHV-6, HHV-8) DNA sequences in HIV negative Castleman's disease.
Aim-To evaluate the possible involvement of lymphotropic herpes viruses in Castleman's disease.Methods-Archival formalin fixed, paraffin wax embedded biopsy specimens from 16 HIV negative patients (11 with localised and five of multicentric disease) were studied. Epstein-Barr virus (EBV), human herpes virus-6 (HHV-6) and human herpes virus-8 (HHV-8) DNA was detected using PCR. PCR was also used...
متن کاملSeroprevalence of HHV-8, CMV, and EBV among the general population in Ghana, West Africa
BACKGROUND Human herpesvirus 8 (HHV-8), cytomegalovirus (CMV) and Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) are prevalent in Africa, but less common elsewhere and the modes of transmission are still subject to debate. Generally, they rarely cause disease in the immunocompetent host but are highly oncogenic when associated with immunosuppression. Although the high prevalence of HHV-8, CMV and EBV has been well d...
متن کاملCorrelation between HHV-6 reactivation and multiple sclerosis disease activity.
This study examined the association between HHV-6 infection and multiple sclerosis (MS) and the relationship between HHV-6 reactivation and disease activity. The frequency of HHV-6 genomic sequences in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs), the incidence of plasma viremia (nPCR), the transcription of viral mRNA in PBMCs (RT-PCR), the presence of antiviral IgM and IgG class antibodies in th...
متن کاملQuantitative 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...
