Eliassen E, Lum E, Pritchett J, Ongradi J, Krueger G, Crawford J, et al.
Front Oncol . 2018 Dec; 8:512. PMID: 30542640
In order to determine the role of human herpesvirus 6 (HHV-6) in human disease, several confounding factors, including methods of detection, types of controls, and the ubiquitous nature of the...

Tembo J, Chandwe K, Kabwe M, Chilufya M, Ciccone O, Mpabalwani E, et al.
J Med Virol . 2018 Jul; 90(11):1757-1764. PMID: 30011348
Background: Human herpesvirus 6B (HHV-6B) is the causative agent of Roseola infantum, and has also been suggested to play a role in the pathogenesis of febrile seizures in young children,...

Eliassen E, Krueger G, Luppi M, Ablashi D
Mediterr J Hematol Infect Dis . 2018 May; 10(1):e2018035. PMID: 29755712
Human herpesvirus 6A and 6B (HHV-6A and HHV-6B) have been noted since their discovery for their T-lymphotropism. Although it has proven difficult to determine the extent to which HHV-6A and...

Greninger A, Roychoudhury P, Makhsous N, Hanson D, Chase J, Krueger G, et al.
J Virol . 2018 Mar; 92(10). PMID: 29491155
Quantitative PCR is a diagnostic pillar for clinical virology testing, and reference materials are necessary for accurate, comparable quantitation between clinical laboratories. Accurate quantitation of human herpesvirus 6A/B (HHV-6A/B) is...

Ablashi D, Agut H, Alvarez-Lafuente R, Clark D, Dewhurst S, DiLuca D, et al.
Arch Virol . 2013 Nov; 159(5):863-70. PMID: 24193951
Shortly after the discovery of human herpesvirus 6 (HHV-6), two distinct variants, HHV-6A and HHV-6B, were identified. In 2012, the International Committee on Taxonomy of Viruses (ICTV) classified HHV-6A and...

Gravel A, Ablashi D, Flamand L
Genome Announc . 2013 Jun; 1(3). PMID: 23766398
The genome sequence of the original human herpesvirus 6A (HHV-6A) (GS isolate) has never been determined. DNA from a very low passage (<5 times) HHV-6A GS stock was isolated and...

Arbuckle J, Pantry S, Medveczky M, Prichett J, Loomis K, Ablashi D, et al.
Virology . 2013 May; 442(1):3-11. PMID: 23648233
Human herpesvirus 6B (HHV-6B) is the causative agent of roseola infantum. HHV-6A and 6B can reactivate in immunosuppressed individuals and are linked with severe inflammatory response, organ rejection and central...

Cameron B, Flamand L, Juwana H, Middeldorp J, Naing Z, Rawlinson W, et al.
J Med Virol . 2010 Sep; 82(10):1684-8. PMID: 20827765
Multiple previous studies have sought evidence for ongoing, active infection with, or reactivation of, Herpesviruses in patients with chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS), with conflicting results. This study aimed to clarify...

APMIS . 2010 May; 118(5):394-400. PMID: 20477816
Human herpesvirus-6 (HHV-6) infections are usually asymptomatic reactivations in immunocompetent persons, but may be severe in immunocompromised individuals. Although primary HHV-6 infection is mainly associated with roseola infantum, it has...

Arbuckle J, Medveczky M, Luka J, Hadley S, Luegmayr A, Ablashi D, et al.
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A . 2010 Mar; 107(12):5563-8. PMID: 20212114
Previous research has suggested that human herpesvirus-6 (HHV-6) may integrate into host cell chromosomes and be vertically transmitted in the germ line, but the evidence--primarily fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH)--is...
