Replication of Human Herpesvirus 6 (HHV-6): Morphological Aspects

  • Chapter
Immunobiology and Prophylaxis of Human Herpesvirus Infections

Part of the book series: Advances in Experimental Medicine and Biology ((AEMB,volume 278))

Abstract

Human herpesvirus 6 (HHV-6) was first isolated by Salahuddin et al. (1) from the peripheral-blood leukocytes of six patients with associated lymphoproliferative disorders, and subsequently by Lopez et al. (2) and other research groups (3, 4) from individuals seronegative as well as individuals seropositive for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). Yamanishi et al. (5) probably isolated a different strain of the same virus from the peripheral-blood lymphocytes of patients with exanthem subitum.
