Torque Teno Virus (TTV) Infection
TTV has been recently identified as a causative agent of non-A to non-G hepatitis. However, the exact role of this virus in the pathogenesis of chronic liver disease (CLD) and the development of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) remain controversial. To clarify these issues, the prevalence of this virus and its impact on the severity of liver disease and development of HCC among Egyptian patients ...
متن کاملTorque teno virus: a ubiquitous virus
Torque teno virus (TTV) is a non-enveloped human DNA virus isolated by Nishizawa et al. in 1997.1 TTV, recently classified as the Alphatorquevirus genus within the Anelloviridae family by the International Committee on Taxonomy of Viruses (ICTV), was the first human virus with a single-stranded circular DNA genome to be identified.2 Thus far, five main genetic groups (Groups 1–5) involving at l...

caid et al. showed that the TTV encodes a miRNA in vivo that orque teno virus (TTV) is a non-enveloped human DNA virus solated by Nishizawa et al. in 1997.1 TTV, recently classified s the Alphatorquevirus genus within the Anelloviridae family by he International Committee on Taxonomy of Viruses (ICTV), as the first human virus with a single-stranded circular DNA enome to be identified.2 Thus fa...
متن کاملIdentification and genomic characterization of a novel human torque teno virus of 3.2 kb.
In the process of searching for the recently described small anelloviruses 1 and 2 (SAVs) with the genomic DNA length of 2.2 or 2.6 kb in human sera, we isolated a novel virus with its genomic organization resembling those of torque teno virus (TTV) of 3.8-3.9 kb and torque teno mini virus (TTMV) of 2.8-2.9 kb. The entire genomic sequence of three isolates (MD1-032, MD1-073 and MD2-013), which ...
متن کاملMolecular characterization of Torque teno virus and SEN virus co-infection with HIV in patients from Southern Iran.
INTRODUCTION Torque teno virus (TTV) and SEN virus are circular single-stranded DNA viruses that cause blood-borne infections. The SEN virus (SEN-V) was originally detected in the serum of an injection drug user infected with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). Recently TTV was discovered as a potential causative agent of non-A-E hepatitis. The aim of this study was to investigate the prevalenc...
