Abstrakt: A recent study conducted by researchers at the University of Helsinki in Finland explores the implications of inherited chromosomally integrated human herpesvirus 6 (iciHHV-6) in solid organ transplantation. The study found that viral reactivation of iciHHV-6 in a transplant recipient can lead to complications and infection of the graft. The researchers used hybrid capture sequencing and other techniques to analyze viral sequences and host immune responses. The findings highlight the importance of monitoring viral reactivation in transplant recipients and emphasize the role of the host's virome in transplantation outcomes. [Extracted from the article]
