Prevalence and Cellular Reservoir of Latent Human Herpesvirus 6 in Tonsillar Lymphoid Tissue

1 Nov 2001

Abstract excerpt

There are few studies that examine prevalence, quantity, and cellular proclivity of latent human herpesvirus 6 (HHV-6) in healthy populations. We examined 69 tonsils with paired blood specimens from children without evidence of acute infection. By polymerase chain reaction (PCR), HHV-6 was detected at low levels in 100% of tonsils and 39% of blood samples (n = 27), suggesting that prevalence of latent HHV-6...
