Immunocompetent sisters with chromosomally integrated human herpesvirus 6A (HHV-6A) transiently excreted HHV-6B genome in their saliva. They did not have past histories of exanthema subitum but had antibodies against HHV-6A and HHV-6B. This suggests that endogenous HHV-6A may modify the clinical features of HHV-6B coinfection.
免疫功能正常的姐妹俩的唾液中一过性排出了人疱疹病毒 6 型(HHV-6A)和 HHV-6B 基因组。她们虽没有出过幼儿急疹,但已产生了针对 HHV-6A 和 HHV-6B 的抗体。这表明内源性 HHV-6A 可能会改变 HHV-6B 合并感染的临床特征。
