✦ Synopsis

Abstract

Human herpesvirus 7 (HHV‐7) was isolated frequently from saliva specimens. The isolation rates were 81% (13/16) in adults, 70% (7/10) in children over 1 year old, and none (0/7) in children less than 1 year old, respectively, indicating that infection of HHV‐7 occurs during early infancy and the virus shedding rate after infection is very high. Human herpesvirus 6 (HHV‐6) was not isolated from saliva specimens although some studies on isolation of HHV‐6 from saliva was reported previously. © 1993 Wiley‐Liss, Inc.

Because these isolations were made in PHA‐stimulated lymphocytes from healthy adults, which may occasionally contain endogenous HHV‐6, it was desirable to repeat this work using cord blood lymphocytes.

Human herpesviruses-6 and -7 (HHV-6 and HHV-7) are thought to be transmitted during early infancy through saliva. However, the kinetics of the virus shedding in saliva of healthy adults, from whom children are assumed to acquire the viruses, is mostly unknown. This study was conducted to determine h

The isolation and characterization of human herpesvirus-6 (HHV-6) has been hindered by the lack of cell lines useful for its rapid propagation. Recently, we have reported that the MRC-5 cell line (human diploid lung fibroblasts) was susceptible for HHV-6 infection. In this study, we report on the is
