Evidence linking HHV-6 with multiple sclerosis: an update

Publication date: December 2014 Source:Current Opinion in Virology, Volume 9 Author(s): Emily C Leibovitch , Steven Jacobson Following reports of elevated antiviral antibodies in MS patient sera and viral DNA detection in MS plaques nearly two decades ago, the neurovirology community has actively explored how herpesviruses such as HHV-6 might be involved in MS disease pathogenesis. Though findings across the field are non-uniform, an emerging consensus of viral correlates with disease course and evidence of HHV-6-specific immune responses in the CNS provide compelling evidence for a role, direct or indirect, of this virus in MS. Ultimately, the only way to demonstrate the involvement, or lack thereof, of HHV-6 or other herpesviruses in this disease is through a controlled clinical trial ...

Since antibodies for the African Swine Fever virus have been detected in humans, the possibility of human infection with the African Swine Fever virus exists and may thus far have escaped any systematic screening. Thus, any preventive and therapeutic approach to African Swine Fever can have far-reaching implications to control immune deficiency conditions in humans.
