✦ Synopsis

acute phase and serological examination. Roseola is a common disease of infancy characterized by high fever for a few days and the appearance of a rash when the fever decreases. Symptoms are usually mild, but encephalitis and other complications of the central nervous system (CNS) have been reported. HHV-6 DNA can be detectable in cerebrospinal fluid of patients with neurological symptoms during roseola by polymerase chain reaction. Recently it is recognized that two distinct classes (variant A and B) of HI-IV-6 exist, and I-IHV-6B can be isolated from roseola patients. It is now believed that HHV-6 persists in the host after primary infection and that it can be reactivated later during immuuosuppression including AIDS and organ transplantation. Recently we found HI-IV-6 is reactivated during other virus infection including dengue virus and HHV-7.
