Correlation analysis of HHV-6A viral load and anti-TPO antibody levels in patients with Hashimoto's thyroiditis

 

Plain language summary

Hashimoto's thyroiditis (HT) is an autoimmune disease. This means that the immune system mistakenly attacks healthy cells and tissues. HT mainly affects the thyroid gland. This study aimed to find out if there is a relationship between a type of herpesvirus, human herpesvirus 6 (HHV-6), and the number of immune cells against a protein in the thyroid gland, thyroid peroxidase (anti-TPO), with the development of HT. The study included 60 patients with HT, 60 patients with non-autoimmune thyroid disease and 60 subjects with normal thyroid function. The results showed that there was a relationship between the presence of HHV-6 and anti-TPO in HT patients. This suggests that HHV-6 plays a role in the development of HT.

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.
