Disease relevance of Herpesvirus 7, Human

  • The antibodies are specific for HHV-7 and HHV-6B, respectively, and they retained reactivity for antigens contained in formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissue samples [1].
  • HHV- 6 contains two genes (U12 and U51) that encode putative homologs of cellular G-protein-coupled receptors (GCR), while three other betaherpesviruses, human cytomegalovirus, murine cytomegalovirus, and human herpesvirus 7, have three, one, and two GCR-homologous genes, respectively [2].
  • On the basis of the analyses of sera from children and adults it can be concluded that HHV-7 is a prevalent human herpesvirus which, like other human herpesviruses, infects during childhood [3].
  • It was recently suggested that the CXC chemokine receptor 4 (CXCR4), which was found to be a crucial coreceptor for T-tropic HIV-1 strains, may also play a role in the HHV-7 infection process [4].
  • The study of distinct HHV-7-positive human samples showed preferential associations of some gB alleles with some alleles of two other genes, distantly located on the HHV-7 genome, coding for the phosphoprotein p100 (p100) and the major capsid protein (MCP) [5].

  • On the other hand, HHV-7 did not affect IL-4 and IL-6 synthesis [21].
  • The HHV-7 infection also significantly (P < 0.05) decreased the production of IL-2 from activated, IL-2-producing PBMC [21].
  • U94/REP inhibited the replication of other betaherpesviruses, HHV-7 and human cytomegalovirus, but had no effect on herpes simplex virus [22].
  • There were quantitative differences in the activation of p53, Bax, p21WAF and Bcl-2 in HHV 6-infected CBC as compared to HHV-7 infection supporting the apoptosis cycle [23].
  • Moreover, HHV-6, but not the closely related betaherpesvirus HHV-7, dramatically suppressed the secretion of interleukin-12 (IL-12) p70 by DC, while the production of other cytokines that influence DC maturation, i.e., IL-10 and tumor necrosis factor alpha, was not significantly modified [24].
