Summary of the 9th International Conference on Human herpesviruses 6 and 7 (HHV-6A, HHV-6B and HHV-7).


Abstract

The 9th International Conference on Human herpesviruses 6 and 7 (HHV-6A, HHV-6B, and HHV-7) was held at Harvard Medical School in Boston, Massachusetts from November 9-11, 2015. Important new information was presented regarding: the biology of these viruses, particularly HHV-6A and HHV-6B; the biology and epidemiology of inherited chromosomally-integrated HHV-6A/B; improved diagnostic tests; animal models for studying HHV-6 and HHV-7, and animal viruses with similarities to HHV-6 and HHV-7; established and possible disease associations; and new approaches to treatment. Here, we summarize work of particular interest. This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved.

" A new study finds that prior herpesvirus infections are linked to a faster age-related increase in blood biomarkers associated with dementia, even in cognitively healthy women. Researchers measured five key biomarkers in 167 women and found that seropositivity for HHVs doubled the rate of biomarker accumulation compared to those without prior infection. The strongest viral associations were seen for Epstein-Barr virus and HHV6, with amyloid-beta and phosphorylated tau levels most affected. These findings support the hypothesis that chronic viral infections may accelerate neurodegeneration and raise dementia risk independently of genetic factors."
