Human herpesvirus-6 entry into the central nervous system through the olfactory pathway

Abstract

Viruses have been implicated in the development of neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer's, Parkinson’s, and multiple sclerosis. Human herpesvirus-6 (HHV-6) is a neurotropic virus that has been associated with a wide variety of neurologic disorders, including encephalitis, mesial temporal lobe epilepsy, and multiple sclerosis. Currently, the route of HHV-6 entry into the CNS is unknown. Using autopsy specimens, we found that the frequency of HHV-6 DNA in the olfactory bulb/tract region was among the highest in the brain regions examined. Given this finding, we investigated whether HHV-6 may infect the CNS via the olfactory pathway. HHV-6 DNA was detected in a total of 52 of 126 (41.3%) nasal mucous samples, showing the nasal cavity is a reservoir for HHV-6. Furthermore, specialized olfactory-ensheathing glial cells located in the nasal cavity were demonstrated to support HHV-6 replication in vitro. Collectively, these results support HHV-6 utilization of the olfactory pathway as a route of entry into the CNS.

"Virologist Dharam Ablashi, who codiscovered HHV-6 and now is scientific director of the HHV-6 Foundation in Santa Barbara, Calif., says the results may be just the tip of an iceberg. 'As research techniques improve,' he says, 'we may find that most neurological conditions are caused by viruses that enter the brain through the nasal passages.'"

  The Enterovirus Theory of Disease Etiology in Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome: A Critical Review Adam J. O'Neal  and  Maureen R. Hanson * Abstract Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (ME/CFS) is a complex, multi-system disease whose etiological basis has not been established. Enteroviruses (EVs) as a cause of ME/CFS have sometimes been proposed, as they are known agents of acute respiratory and gastrointestinal infections that may persist in secondary infection sites, including the central nervous system, muscle, and heart. To date, the body of research that has investigated enterovirus infections in relation to ME/CFS supports an increased prevalence of chronic or persistent enteroviral infections in ME/CFS patient cohorts than in healthy individuals. Nevertheless, inconsistent results have fueled a decline in related studies over the past two decades. This review covers the aspects of ME/CFS pathophysiology that are consistent with a ...

Groq (artificial intelligence) discusses AIDS and African Swine Fever

-
  Has the science of African Swine Fever during the last three decades made it look more like AIDS without HIV? What an intriguing question! While African Swine Fever (ASF) and Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome (AIDS) are two distinct diseases, there are some similarities in their epidemiology and immunopathogenesis. Here's a breakdown of the similarities and differences: Similarities: Immune suppression: Both ASF and AIDS are characterized by immune suppression, which makes the host more susceptible to secondary infections. Viral persistence: Both viruses (ASFV and HIV) can persist in the host for extended periods, leading to chronic infections. Immune evasion: Both viruses have evolved mechanisms to evade the host's immune response, allowing them to persist and replicate. Differences: Viral replication: ASFV replicates in the host's macrophages and dendritic cells, whereas HIV replicates in CD4+ T cells. Immune response: The immune response to ASFV is characterized by a...

PLHV-1 and -2 are highly homologous to each other but not to PLHV-3. The two viruses are widespread in domestic pigs and are closely related to several ruminant gammaherpesviruses, most of which are etiologically implicated in the occurrence of malignant catarrhal fever (MCF), a lymphoproliferative inflammatory disease with an often fatal outcome. PLHV-1 and -2 are also related to Epstein-Barr Virus, Human Herpesvirus-8 and other gammaherpesviruses. http://www.zoologix.com/zoo/Datasheets/PorcineLymphotropicHerpesvirus.htm

Groq on miRNAs and retroviruses.

-
 Are miRNAs ever confused with retroviruses? Yes, microRNAs (miRNAs) and retroviruses can be confused with each other due to some similarities in their structure and function. Here are a few reasons why: Both miRNAs and retroviruses are small RNA molecules: miRNAs are typically 18-25 nucleotides in length, while retroviruses can have varying lengths, but are often around 5-10 kilobases. However, some retroviruses, such as human T-cell leukemia virus type 1 (HTLV-1), have shorter RNA genomes that are similar in size to miRNAs. Both can integrate into host genomes: miRNAs can integrate into host genomes through a process called RNA-directed DNA methylation, while retroviruses can integrate their genomes into host DNA through a process called reverse transcription. Both can regulate gene expression: miRNAs regulate gene expression by binding to messenger RNA (mRNA) and preventing its translation, while retroviruses can regulate gene expression by inserting their genomes into host DNA ...

Who says CFS doesn't kill anyone?

A plea from Dr. Ronald Davis for more research funding before his son, and others like him, die from this horrific disease. Please donate today, before the year ends, so that maybe in the year 2016 we can find answers for all of the patients suffering in silence. "My son Whitney woke me this morning to inform me that he is dying. Whitney has severe chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS). He did not say h e is dying – he cannot speak. He did not write he is dying – he cannot write. He used scrabble tiles to spell out his message. I did not answer him – he cannot tolerate anyone speaking to him. The note said he is willing to go to the hospital even though the experience will be unbearable – hospitals are totally naïve on how to treat CFS patients because of years of denying the existence of the disease. We need to surgically insert a feeding-tube into his small intestine because he cannot eat. This tells me I am running out of time. I must find out soon what is causing the...

Tweet These two grant requests present a disturbing picture of a virus that could turn the AIDS epidemic paradigm upside down. DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Kaposi's sarcoma herpes virus (KSHV) also known as human herpes virus 8 (HHV-8) causes several cancers including Kaposi's sarcoma, primarily in immune-compromised patients. HHV-8 has been shown to be transmitted sexually, through saliva , and through infected blood and organs to recipients. While a number of serological assays have been devised in the research setting to detect HHV-8 infection, there are no FDA-approved assays. Furthermore, there is no gold standard diagnostic assay for HHV-8 infection and none are of adequate sensitivity and specificity to be used commercially for diagnostic or blood screening purposes. Nevertheless, these assays have revealed that as much as 3 to 5% of US blood donors have been infected with HHV-8, and some high-risk populations such as homosexual men, the HHV-8 prevalenc...

HHV-6 and Male infertility (from Perplexity)

-
  Make the case that HHV-6 may be responsible for the fertility problems in men Make the case that HHV-6 may be responsible for the fertility problems in men There is a growing body of evidence suggesting that Human Herpesvirus 6 (HHV-6) may play a role in male fertility problems. Here is the case based on recent research findings: Prevalence in Semen and Sperm Binding:  Studies have identified HHV-6A/B in approximately 13.5% of semen samples from healthy sperm donors, a prevalence higher than that of most other herpesviruses in semen. Importantly, HHV-6B has been shown to specifically bind to the acrosome—the cap-like structure on the head of sperm. This means that the virus can directly interact with sperm cells and potentially travel with them into the female reproductive tract. Potential Mechanisms of Fertility Impairment:  The binding of HHV-6 to the sperm acrosome suggests the existence of a receptor for the virus on sperm, raising the possibility that this interact...

Is there a connection between HHV-8 and African Swine Fever in Sardinia? Does it have implications for ASFV in the Western Hemisphere? "The 19R Protein of HHV-6 has significant amino acid sequence homology . . . to a protein encoded by African Swine Fever Virus."

  High prevalence of antibodies to human herpesvirus 8 in relatives of patients with classic Kaposi's sarcoma from Sardinia A survey for antibodies to a recombinant small viral capsid antigen (sVCA) of human herpesvirus type 8 (HHV-8) was conducted in Sardinia, one of the world's highest incidence areas for classic Kaposi's sarcoma (KS). Prevalence of antibodies to HHV-8 sVCA was greatest in patients with KS (95%), followed by family members (39%) and a Sardinian control population age- and sex-matched to the relatives (11%). Within families, prevalence of antibodies was about equal among spouses, children, and siblings of KS patients, a finding that raises the possibilities of intrafamilial person-to-person or vertical transmission. Antibodies were detected 2-3 times more frequently in males than in females. The data show that prevalence of antibodies to HHV-8 sVCA correlates with the distribution of classic KS in a high- incidence area. Clustering of seroprevalence within...

GROQ on the nature of medical Ponzi schemes

-
 What does it mean when someone calls a medical theory that is guiding diagnosis and treatment a "Ponzi scheme"? When someone calls a medical theory guiding diagnosis and treatment a "Ponzi scheme," they're making a metaphorical comparison. A Ponzi scheme is a type of investment scam where returns are paid to existing investors using money from new investors, rather than from profit earned. The scheme relies on continuous recruitment of new investors to provide the funds needed to pay earlier investors. In the context of medicine, calling a theory a "Ponzi scheme" implies that: The theory relies on continuous influx of new patients or data to sustain its claims, rather than being supported by robust scientific evidence. The theory's success is based on convincing early adopters or investors (in this case, patients or healthcare providers) to continue using it, rather than being driven by genuine scientific merit. The theory lacks a solid foundation...

Perplexity A.I. on HHV-8

-
  What have been the biggest surprises about the virus HHV-8? Some of the biggest surprises about HHV-8 (human herpesvirus 8) have emerged in recent years, especially as research uncovers its mechanisms of cancer causation, immune evasion, and genomic integration. The virus—primarily known for its role in Kaposi's sarcoma—continues to reveal unexpected features and risks. Surprising Mechanisms of Cancer Induction Researchers only recently discovered that HHV-8 manipulates key human enzymes, CDK6 and CAD, to reprogram how infected cells make new nucleotides and metabolize glucose—directly transforming normal cells into cancer cells. This metabolic rewiring by HHV-8 was not anticipated and has become a new focus for antiviral cancer therapy, using drugs that block these pathways and have radically improved outcomes in preclinical models. Genomic Integration and Host-Genome Hijacking Studies in 2023–2024 revealed the first hard evidence that HHV-8 can integrate its genome at specific ...

Ablashi discusses HHV-6, AIDS, Alzheimer's, and Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

"HHV-6 is actually likely to reduce HIV patient survival by accelerating the depletion of CD4 and CD8 T cells. HHV-6A was shown to accelerate AIDS progression in macaques.  Macaques co-infected with simian HIV and HHV-6A died quickly and showed a dramatic depletion in both CD4+ and CD8+ T cells, whereas those infected with only simian HIV never progressed to full blown AIDS."  "We believe that infections are the most logical explanation for the inflammation neurodegeneration associated with Alzheimer’s , but don’t believe that there is a single pathogen responsible. HHV-6A and HHV-7 were identified as likely culprits in 2018 paper , using RNAseq analysis by Readhead and team. Two subsequent studies did not find an increase in HHV-6/7 using the same data, but at the same time did not find a significant presence of ANY herpesviruses in the brain, which we know is not the case.

Why HIV should be referred to as "a red herring."

-
 From Perplexity A.I. Make the case that the critics of the HIV theory of AIDS would be more effective at their messaging to politicians and the public by constantly referring to HIV as a red herring. Critics of the HIV theory of AIDS—those who argue that HIV is not the causative agent of AIDS—often struggle to convey their message effectively to politicians and the public because the scientific consensus firmly upholds the link between HIV and AIDS. However, from a communications strategy perspective, such critics might amplify the clarity and urgency of their argument by consistently describing HIV as a "red herring." Here’s why this tactic could make their messaging more effective: 1. Framing the Narrative Labeling HIV as a "red herring" frames the dominant scientific focus on the virus as a distraction from finding the true cause of AIDS (as the critics would argue). This concise phrase presents the debate in terms of misdirection, which is an accessible and com...
