Torque Teno virus viremia correlates with intensity of maintenance immunosuppression in adult orthotopic liver transplant.
TO THE EDITOR—We read with interest the recent article by Béland et al, detailing torque teno virus (TTV) kinetics in pediatric orthotopic liver transplant (OLT) recipients [1]. Interestingly, the authors show that TTV load increased with the number of immunosuppressive agents received. TTV viremia, which is normally at about 2 log10 in healthy subjects, has been shown to increase (up to 4 log1...
متن کاملPrevalence and Genotyping of Torque Teno Virus in HBV/HIV and Chronic HBV Patients in Iran
Background: Torque teno virus (TTV) was the first human Anelloviridae detected in a Japanese patient with an unknown type of hepatitis in 1997. TTV is by far the first known single-stranded circular DNA virus infecting human. In spite of its widespread nature in human population, its pathogenesis is still unclear. In addition, information regarding TTV infection in Iranian population is limited...
متن کاملTorque 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 ...

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...
