Human herpesvirus 6 and 7 are biomarkers for fatigue
Research highlights: Salivary HHV-6 and HHV-7 can be used for assessment of physiological fatigue. Activation and differentiation of macrophages are needed for viral reactivation. Salivary HHV-6 and HHV-7 do not increase with pathological fatigue. Salivary HHV-6/7 can distinguish between physiological … Continue reading
Human herpesvirus-6 infection can be inherited
HHV-6 has been found in people with ME. Abstract Human herpesvirus-6 (HHV-6)A and 6B are ubiquitous betaherpesviruses viruses with lymphotropic and neurotropic potential.
