Acute lymphoblastic leukemia is the main type of leukemia in children. An infectious etiology has been suspected and the role of the Human herpesvirus-6 (HHV-6) has been suggested. Several studies have tried to establish a link between HHV-6 infections and hematological malignancies, with discordant results. The potential role of HHV-6 in the pathogenesis of pediatric acute lymphoblastic leukemia was investigated. HHV-6 genome copy number was measured by quantitative real-time PCR (RQ-PCR) in bone marrow or peripheral blood samples obtained from 36 children (median age = 4 years) with B acute lymphoblastic leukemia (n = 31) and T acute lymphoblastic leukemia (n = 5) at diagnosis and during complete remission. Positive samples were further characterized to define viral variant, A or B. A total of 24.7% of samples were positive for HHV-6 genome: 13.9% were leukemia samples and 34.1% were complete remission samples. Viral load was low with values lower at diagnosis (median viral copy number = 22.9) than at complete remission (median copy number = 60.1). Among the 17 patients with positive samples, 15 were typed as B-variant whereas 2 could not be typed. These results argue against a role of HHV6 infection in the development of pediatric acute lymphoblastic leukemia. They also suggest that HHV-6 may infect latently bone marrow progenitors but seems not able to infect leukemic cells, raising again the question of the mechanism of virus fusion and entry. This observation shows that a reactivation may be observed during complete remission supporting the possibility of virus reactivation in immunocompromised hosts. 相似文献

This study aimed to investigate the prevalence of human papilloma virus (HPV), herpes simplex virus‐1/‐2 (HSV‐1/‐2), varicella‐zoster virus (VZV), Epstein–Barr virus (EBV), cytomegalovirus (CMV), and human herpes virus‐6/‐7 (HHV‐6/‐7) in 23 human nasal polyps by applying PCR. Two types of control tissues were used: adjacent inferior/middle turbinates from the patients and inferior/middle turbinates from 13 patients undergoing nasal corrective surgery. EBV was the virus most frequently detected (35%), followed by HPV (13%), HSV‐1 (9%), and CMV (4%). The CMV‐positive polyp was simultaneously positive for HSV‐1. HPV was also detected in the adjacent turbinates (4%) and the adjacent middle turbinate (4%) of one of the HPV‐positive patients. EBV, HSV, and CMV were not detected in the adjacent turbinates of the EBV‐, HSV‐ or CMV‐positive patients. All mucosae were negative for the VZV, HHV‐6, and HHV‐7. This is the first study to deal with the involvement of a comparable group of viruses in human nasal polyposis. The findings support the theory that the presence of viral EBV markedly influences the pathogenesis of these benign nasal tumors. The low incidence of HPV detected confirms the hypothesis that HPV is correlated with infectious mucosal lesions to a lesser extent than it is with proliferative lesions, such as inverted papilloma. The low incidence of HSV‐1 and CMV confirms that these two herpes viruses may play a minor role in the development of nasal polyposis. Double infection with HSV‐1 and CMV may also play a minor, though causative, role in nasal polyp development. VZV and HHV‐6/‐7 do not appear to be involved in the pathogenesis of these mucosal lesions. J. Med. Virol. 81:1613–1619, 2009. © 2009 Wiley‐Liss, Inc. 相似文献

The aim of this study is to determine whether human herpesvirus 6 (HHV-6) and HHV-7 might play an important role in causing interstitial pneumonia in patients who have not undergone transplantation. HHV-6 and HHV-7 DNAs were quantitated by real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) in paraffin embedded lung tissues collected from 24 patients having the disease. Control tissues (without fibrosis) were also collected from 19 of the 24 patients. Statistical analysis was carried out by the Wilcoxon signed rank test or the Mann-Whitney U-test. HHV-6 DNA was detected in 3 (12.5%) of the 24 target tissues and 3 (15.8%) of the 19 control tissues, respectively. In contrast, HHV-7 DNA was detected in 19 (79.2%) of the 24 target tissues and 11 (57.9%) of the 19 control tissues. Neither HHV-6 DNA load (P = 0.6395) nor HHV-7 DNA load (P = 0.5966) in target tissues differed between males and females. Neither HHV-6 DNA load (P = 0.9589) nor HHV-7 DNA load (P = 0.7419) in target tissues differed between cases with and without underlying collagen disease. While HHV-6 DNA load did not differ between the target and control tissues (P > 0.9999), the HHV-7 DNA load was significantly higher in the target tissue than in the control tissue (P = 0.0298). This study suggests that HHV-7 may play an important role in causing interstitial pneumonia in patients who are not transplant recipients. 相似文献

Human papillomaviruses (HPVs) are necessary, but not sufficient, for the development of cervical cancer (CC). Human beta-herpesviruses (beta-HHVs) have been suggested as possible cofactors in the oncogenesis of CC. In this cross-sectional study, the prevalence and possible association of cytomegalovirus (CMV), HHV-6 and -7 with HPV presence was investigated by quantitative real-time PCR assays in cervical samples obtained from 208 italian women. The two most common high-risk HPV types found were 31 and 16. Overall, the positive rates for CMV, HHV-6 and HHV-7 were 66%, 25%, and 6%, respectively. In particular, the prevalence of CMV was found to be extremely high irrespective of either the cytological category or HPV positivity. The prevalence of HHV-6 DNA was significantly higher in high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions (HSIL) respect to normal women (P < 0.017); by contrast, the prevalence HHV-7 DNA was generally low and not associated with SIL. Copresence of CMV and HHV-6 DNA was found to be significantly higher in patients with SIL respect to normal women (P < 0.05). No correlation was demonstrated between the viral load of all three beta-HHVs and the different cytological stages or with the HPV presence. A few patients with severe disease however showed very high viral loads which for HHV-6 may be indicative of viral integration. In conclusion, this study suggests that CMV and HHV-7 alone are probably not implicated in the oncogenesis of CC whilst HHV-6 alone or together with CMV may contribute to the development of CC. 相似文献

A fatal case is reported of encephalitis in an 85-year-old man caused by the human herpesvirus 6 variant A. The virological diagnosis was based on the findings of the virus variant genomic sequences both in the cerebrospinal fluid and serum of the patient. Moreover, virus replication in nervous tissue was suggested by a viral load higher in the cerebrospinal fluid than in the peripheral blood. The association of a central nervous system infection with the A variant of human herpesvirus 6 is interesting because of the difficulty in establishing a pathological role for this virus strain. Epstein-Barr virus DNA was detected in the patient's cerebrospinal fluid in association with human herpesvirus 6 DNA. The presence of the Epstein-Barr virus genomic sequences in the cerebro-spinal fluid was considered to be unimportant clinically. 相似文献

Human herpesvirus 6 (HHV-6) and human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) may interact during transplacental transmission of HIV-1. The placental syncytiotrophoblast layer serves as the first line of defense of the fetus against viruses. Patterns of replication of HHV-6 variant A (HHV-6A) and HIV-1 were analyzed in singly and dually infected human term syncytiotrophoblast cells cultured in vitro. For this purpose, the GS strain of HHV-6A and the Ba-L and IIIB strains of HIV-1 were used. HHV-6A replication was restricted at the level of early gene products in singly infected syncytiotrophoblasts, whereas no viral protein expression was found in cells infected with HIV-1 alone. Coinfection of syncytiotrophoblast cells with HHV-6A and HIV-1 resulted in production of infectious HIV-1. In contrast, no enhancement of HHV-6A expression was observed in cell cultures infected with both viruses. Uninfected syncytiotrophoblast cells were found to express CXCR4 and CCR3 but not CD4 or CCR5 receptors. Infection of syncytiotrophoblasts with HHV-6A did not induce CD4 expression and had no influence on chemokine receptor expression. Activation of HIV-1 from latency in coinfected cells was mediated by the immediate-early (IE)-A and IE-B gene products of HHV-6A. Open reading frames U86 and U89 of the IE-A region were able to activate HIV-1 replication in a synergistic manner. The data suggest that in vivo double infection of syncytiotrophoblast cells with HHV-6A and HIV-1 could contribute to the transplacental transmission of HIV-1 but not HHV-6A. 相似文献

Unexpected occasional persistence of high levels of HHV-6 DNA in sera: detection of variants A and B
Previously it was thought that in the immunocompetent human herpesvirus-6 [HHV-6] DNA was present transiently in serum during early primary infection but not thereafter. In this study, HHV-6 serum IgG avidity was detected by immunofluorescence and HHV-6 variants A/B [HHV-6A/B] serum DNA by semi-quantitative PCR [titre-log(10) copies/ml] in: (a) young children <3 years old from an encephalitis Survey, and a control Anonymised Serum Bank and (b) children/adults referred for diagnosis. The results showed that 11 out of 15 children [all <2 years] with primary infection proven by seroconversion had transient low levels of serum HHV-6B DNA [mean titre 2.6]. However, 3.3% (6/184) of Survey Children had significantly higher levels [mean titre 5.3; 2 HHV-6A; 4 HHV-6B; P < 0.001]. Similarly high level serum DNA [mean titre 4.0; 4 HHV-6A; 6 HHV-6B] was found in 1.5% (10/653) of the Serum Bank Children. Moreover, seven young children <3 years old [four Survey Children and three referred for diagnosis] had high titre serum HHV-6 DNA [mean 4.8] persisting i.e., in all available samples [median 186 days]. Three older children >3 years old and 4 adults [3 of whom were the mothers of 3 of the young children with persisting HHV-6] also had persisting high titre viral DNA [mean 4.2; median 108 days]. Thus in contrast to acute primary infection, where only HHV-6B DNA is found transiently, both HHV-6A and B DNA persist in serum at high titre in occasional individuals of all ages. The significance of this newly described phenomenon in relation to diagnosis, clinical consequences and congenital infection are discussed. 相似文献

The etiology of cytomegalovirus (CMV), human herpesvirus-6 (HHV-6), and Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) reactivation and the potential for complications following cytotoxic chemotherapy in the absence of allogeneic transplantation are not clearly understood. Patients with adult T cell leukemia (ATL) are susceptible to opportunistic infections. In this study, the incidence, kinetics and clinical significance of reactivation of CMV, HHV-6, and EBV in ATL patients were investigated. Viral DNA in a total of 468 plasma samples from 34 patients was quantified using real-time PCR. The probability of CMV, HHV-6, and EBV reactivation by 100 days after the start of chemotherapy was 50.6%, 52.3%, and 21.6%, respectively. Although most CMV reactivations were self-limited, plasma CMV DNA tended to persist or increase if the CMV DNA levels in plasma reached ≥ 10(4) copies/ml. CMV reactivation was negatively associated with survival, but the P-value for this association was near the borderline of statistical significance (P=0.052). One patient developed fatal interstitial pneumonia concomitant with peak CMV DNA accumulation (1.6 × 10(6) copies/ml plasma). Most HHV-6 and EBV reactivations were self-limited, and no disease resulting from HHV-6 or EBV was confirmed. HHV-6 and EBV reactivation were not associated with reduced survival (P=0.35 and 0.11, respectively). These findings demonstrated that subclinical reactivation of CMV, HHV-6, and EBV were common in ATL patients receiving chemotherapy. There were differences in the viral reactivation patterns among the three viruses. A CMV load ≥ 10(4) copies/ml plasma was indicative of subsequent exacerbation of CMV reactivation and developing serious clinical course. 相似文献

Quantitation of herpes simplex virus (HSV) DNA in bronchoalveolar lavage specimens could indicate an infectious role in the lower respiratory tract. The aim of this study was to compare quantitative HSV DNA results from adult bronchoalveolar lavage specimens to clinical outcome. Quantitative real-time PCR assays targeting HSV and other herpes viruses were performed on adult bronchoalveolar lavage specimens obtained from a largely immunocompromised population during a 1-year period. The results were compared to patient characteristics and outcome. HSV DNA was detected in 11 (19%) of 57 bronchoalveolar lavage specimens with a mean viral level of 5.6 log genome equivalents/ml (range, 2.9-8.1 log). A threshold of HSV DNA levels equal or higher than 5.0 log (n = 7) was associated with mortality within 28 days following hospital admission (odds ratio [OR], 6.8; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.2-39.2). A threshold level of 5.5 log was associated with mortality within 28 days of sampling (OR 8.5; 95% CI 1.2-62.1), only after excluding patients receiving specific antiviral medication. Patients with HSV DNA levels equal or higher than 7.5 log had severe respiratory failure. Viral pneumonia was histologically proven in one patient with 8.0 log at autopsy. No patient with HSV DNA levels below 5.5 log (n = 5) or DNA levels higher than 5.0 log of cytomegalovirus (CMV) (n = 3), Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) (n = 9), varicella-zoster virus (VZV) (n = 1), or human herpesvirus 6 (HHV-6) (n = 0) died within 28 days of hospital admission. We conclude that quantitative detection of HSV DNA in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid is a potential diagnostic tool for detection of relevant viral infection of the lower respiratory tract. 相似文献

This paper is part of the cost-effectiveness study of cervical cancer screening conducted by the French Society of Clinical Cytology (SFCC). It describes the evaluation of costs of conventional smear tests, thin-layer smear tests (ThinPrep 2000 system), and viral typing by the HCS test. For 100,000 examinations per year, the average cost of a conventional smear test is 11.53 dollars in a private anatomo-pathology clinic. The cost of the thin-layer test for the same number of examinations and in the same type of clinic is 13.93 dollars. For 20,000 annual tests, the average cost of human papillomavirus (HPV) is 23.43 dollars in the public sector and 23.48 dollars in the private one. The higher price of the thin-layer method is only justifiable if this screening technique outperforms the conventional method. Furthermore, the high cost of the HPV test means that its integration into a population-based screening program must be carefully defined. 相似文献

Valganciclovir has been reported to improve physical and cognitive symptoms in patients with chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) with elevated human herpesvirus 6 (HHV‐6) and Epstein–Barr virus (EBV) IgG antibody titers. This study investigated whether antibody titers against HHV‐6 and EBV were associated with clinical response to valganciclovir in a subset of CFS patients. An uncontrolled, unblinded retrospective chart review was performed on 61 CFS patients treated with 900 mg valganciclovir daily (55 of whom took an induction dose of 1,800 mg daily for the first 3 weeks). Antibody titers were considered high if HHV‐6 IgG ≥1:320, EBV viral capsid antigen (VCA) IgG ≥1:640, and EBV early antigen (EA) IgG ≥1:160. Patients self‐rated physical and cognitive functioning as a percentage of their functioning prior to illness. Patients were categorized as responders if they experienced at least 30% improvement in physical and/or cognitive functioning. Thirty‐two patients (52%) were categorized as responders. Among these, 19 patients (59%) responded physically and 26 patients (81%) responded cognitively. Baseline antibody titers showed no significant association with response. After treatment, the average change in physical and cognitive functioning levels for all patients was +19% and +23%, respectively (P < 0.0001). Longer treatment was associated with improved response (P = 0.0002). No significant difference was found between responders and non‐responders among other variables analyzed. Valganciclovir treatment, independent of the baseline antibody titers, was associated with self‐rated improvement in physical and cognitive functioning for CFS patients who had positive HHV‐6 and/or EBV serologies. Longer valganciclovir treatment correlated with an improved response. J. Med. Virol. 84:1967–1974, 2012. © 2012 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. 相似文献

Recent epidemiological studies suggest that the risk for urological malignancies may be related to the exposure to infectious agents. Human Papillomaviruses type 16 and 18 (HPV 16, HPV 18), Epstein-Barr virus (EBV), cytomegalovirus (CMV) and herpes simplex virus type 2 (HSV-2) have been suggested previously as cofactors in the pathogenesis of some malignancies in humans. The present paper, the presence of HPV 16, HPV 18, EBV, CMV and HSV-2 genomes was investigated in a panel of 35 biopsies from urinary bladder carcinomas using the polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Sequences of EBV, HPV, CMV and HSV-2 genomes were detected in 34%, 31%, 11% and 9% of tissue samples respectively, while in 20% of patients we found more than one viral infection. Absence of viral genomes was found in normal bladder. To our knowledge, this is the first report concerning the association of EBV, CMV and HSV-2 with bladder cancer. This finding may raise the question whether such viral infection may contribute to development and progression of some types of urological malignancies in humans. J. Med.

Fifty-three (96%) of 55 patients with coronary artery stenosis were positive for serum anti-HHV-6 IgG, and 50 (91%) of these patients had anti-HHV-7 IgG. The number of cases sero-positive for HHV-6 and -7 in the 54 age matched control volunteers was 52 (96%) and 53 (98%), respectively. No statistical difference in the sero-prevalence of the viruses existed between the patients and the control group. The mean geometric titer (log10) of anti-HHV-6 IgG in both the patients and controls were the same (1.4) (P = 0.845), whereas anti-HHV-7 titers were 1.4 and 1.5, respectively (P = 0.161). Ten (18%) of the 55 patients had anti-HHV-6 IgM; eight (15%) of the 54 control volunteers were also positive (P = 0.636). Three (5%) of the 55 patients had anti-HHV-7 IgM, whereas 3 (6%) of the 54 control volunteers had detectable serum antibody (P = 0.691). Forty-seven of the 55 patients were examined by follow-up angiographic evaluation to clarify the association between viral infection and restenosis following balloon angioplasty. Fifteen of these patients developed restenosis, as determined by angiography. The mean geometric titer (log10) of anti-HHV-6 IgG were 1.3 and 1.4 in patients with restenosis and those without restenosis, respectively (P = 0.724). The mean geometric titer (log10) of anti-HHV-7 IgG in patients with restenosis was not significantly higher (1.5) than in patients without restenosis (1.3) (P = 0.099). Three (20%) of the 15 patients affected by restenosis had anti-HHV-6 IgM; five (16%) of the 32 control patients also had the antibody (P = 0.965). One (7%) of the 15 patients with restenosis and 2 (6%) of the 32 patients without restenosis had anti-HHV-7 IgM (P = 0.558). The present study demonstrates that HHV-6 and -7 reactivation is not associated with the establishment of coronary artery stenosis and restenosis following balloon angioplasty. 相似文献

An HHV-6 variant A infection is described in a 75 year-old man in association with meningoencephalitis identified at autopsy. The patient presented with fever and anorexia, then he developed altered consciousness, motor weakness, progressive lethargy, and coma, and died 21 days after hospital admission. Histopathological examination showed perivascular lymphocytic infiltrates in the central nervous system (CNS). Serum and cerebral spinal fluid (CSF) samples drawn from the patient were tested for viruses by a nested polymerase chain reaction (nPCR). HHV-6 primers A and C [Aubin et al., 1991: J Clin Microb 29: 367-372] and HS6AE and HS6AF from [Dewhurst et al. (1993): J Clin Microb 31: 416-418] disclosed a 750 bp genomic product of HHV-6 in both types of biological samples. Restricted site analysis showed that the HHV-6 DNA amplified belonged to the variant A of the virus. Short sequences of HHV-6 DNA could also be detected in the DNA extracted from formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded sections of CNS tissues by use of one (GM5 and GM6) of three pairs of HHV-6 primers that were selected. Immunohistochemical examination of brain sections, employing a specific monoclonal antibody directed against the HHV-6 gp 102 protein, detected the viral antigen in neurons and glial cells. 相似文献

Herpesvirus immediate early (IE) proteins are known to play key roles in establishing productive infections, regulating reactivation from latency, and creating a cellular environment favourable to viral replication. Human herpesvirus-6 (HHV-6) IE genes have not been studied as intensively as their homologues in the prototype betaherpesvirus human cytomegalovirus (HCMV). Whilst the HCMV IE1 gene is relatively conserved, early studies indicated that HHV-6 IE1 exhibited a high level of sequence variation between HHV-6A and HHV-6B isolates, although the observation was based primarily on virus stocks that had been isolated and propagated in vitro. In this study, we investigated the level of HHV-6 IE1 sequence variation in vivo by direct sequencing of circulating virus in clinical samples without prior in vitro culture. Sequences exactly matching those reported for reference HHV-6 isolates were identified in clinical samples, thus the HHV-6 laboratory strains used in the majority of in vitro studies appear to be representative of virus circulating in vivo with respect to the IE1 gene. The HHV-6 IE1 sequence is also conserved in reference strains that had been passaged extensively in vitro. The high degree of divergence between variant A and B type IE1 sequences was confirmed, but interestingly HHV-6B IE1 sequences were observed to further segregate into two distinct subgroups, with the laboratory strains Z29 and HST representative of these two subgroups. Within each HHV-6B subgroup, a remarkably high level of homology was observed. Thus the HHV-6 IE1 sequence appears highly stable, underlining its potential importance to the viral life cycle. 相似文献

In 20-40% of cervical intra-epithelial neoplasia (CIN) and in 4-8% of cervical carcinoma tissue specimens, multiple HPV genotypes have been detected. Whole tissue section (WTS) PCR does not determine how the individual types relate causally to complex and multiple CIN. Our objective was to determine whether laser capture micro-dissection (LCM) with HPV PCR genotyping (LCM-PCR) could accurately recover type-specific HPV DNA from epithelial cells in individual areas of CIN and normal epithelium, and whether one or more viruses are present in one lesion. For that, histologically selected samples of CIN and normal epithelium were isolated by LCM and analysed by the SPF(10) PCR/LiPA(25) (version 1) HPV genotyping system for 25 HPV genotypes. HPV genotypes detected in 756 areas of CIN (grade 1, 2 or 3) by LCM-PCR were compared with results obtained by WTS-PCR in 60 cases (74 biopsies). We showed that when a single HPV type is detected by WTS-PCR, that type was almost always (94%; 29/31) recovered by LCM-PCR from CIN. When multiple HPV types were present by WTS-PCR, their distribution within histological sections could be mapped by LCM-PCR. Association of a single HPV type with a discrete area of CIN was found for 93% (372/399) of LCM fragments analysed by PCR. We found colliding CIN lesions associated with separate HPV types and only 62% (61/99) of HPV types detected by WTS-PCR were found in CIN by LCM-PCR. Therefore, the LCM-PCR technique was found very accurate for high-resolution HPV genotyping and for assigning an individual HPV type to an area of CIN. At LCM level, in cervical biopsy sections with multiple HPV infections, the relation between HPV types and CIN lesions is often complex. Almost every HPV type found in CIN by LCM-PCR is associated with a biological separate independent CIN lesion-one virus, one lesion. 相似文献
