摘要:
In an investigation of the role of saliva in the transmission of human herpesvirus 6 (HHV6) sections of salivary gland tissue were screened for HHV6-specific DNA by in-situ hybridisation and for HHV6-specific protein by immunohistochemical staining with monoclonal antibodies against the virus. All of nine submandibular glands and one of four parotid glands showed the presence of H HV6 genome and expressed protein by these techniques. The findings are consistent with transmission of HHV6 by saliva and suggest that salivary gland tissue is a site of replication of the virus and a potential site for HHV6 persistence. © 1990.
