Improving efficiency of reconstitution may aid in study of HHV-6 biology.
Telomeric repeats (TMRs) important for Marek’s Disease virus live vaccine efficacy
Chromosomal integration and maintenance, as well as vaccine efficacy, severely impaired in the absence of TMRs.
Single-cell RNA sequencing was used to determine the tropism of MRV in the thymus and how central tolerance is disrupted
A new cell culture model for MRV could offer insights on the development of autoimmunity after neonatal infection.
New mechanism identified by which HHV-6B evades NK cell recognition
HHV-6B U20 protein inhibits NK cell attacks on virally-infected cells.
MicroRNA expression patterns suggest that HHV-6 may play a role in triggering systemic sclerosis
Expression pattern of several miRNAs in SS tissue parallels the pattern generated when dermal fibroblasts and endothelial cells are infected by HHV-6A and CMV.
Could a specific polymorphism in HHV-6B partially explain the heritability of major depression?
Individuals carrying this polymorphism had a five-fold increased risk of depression and were more likely to have a family member with major depression.
HHV-6B IE1 inhibits DNA damage signaling pathway leading to genomic instability
Results suggest a possible link between genomic instability and iciHHV-6 associated disease.
Synergistic role of HHV-6A U37 and heat shock proteins in viral replication
Findings provide important insights that may reveal potential targets for antiviral therapy.
Translation of HHV-6B U20 gene product characterized
Findings suggest role in evading host immune defenses.
COVID-19 patients with HHV-6 DNA and CNS symptoms showed increased expression of miR-155
Both HHV-6 and specific microRNAs may correlate with neurological symptoms in COVID-19.
Single cell transcriptomics of iciHHV-6 cell lines immortalized by EBV infection
Transcription of HHV-6 genes was rare, but occurred most often in cells with the highest levels of EBV transcription.
Using CRISPR to excise integrated HHV-6A from latently infected cells and iciHHV6 patient cell lines, in vitro
Advance may aid the study of integration and excision and might ultimately have clinical application.
Differentially expressed HHV-6A/B and HHV-7 genes may have prognostic value in gliomas
Unclear if viral gene expression signature confers prognostic information that is independent of host cell gene expression signatures.
Two HHV-6 genes may contribute to pathogenesis of autoimmune thyroiditis
Genes U12 and U51 encode homologues of human G-protein-coupled receptors, and are potential triggers of autoimmunity.
Does inherited chromosomal integration of HHV-6 at 9q increase the risk of malignancy?
A large study of iciHHV-6 integration sites found integration at 9q more common in hematologic malignancies—but the study lacked power to draw firm conclusions.
