“…HHV-6B is the dominant virus present in the peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) of healthy adults, at least in industrialized countries, and is also the virus that reactivates in a significant majority of both solid organ and stem cell transplant cases in these countries [21, 28, 45, 53, 57, 65, 74, 100, 108, 128], while both HHV-6A and HHV-6B are detected with similar frequency in the plasma of bone marrow transplant patients [97, 114]. HHV-6B is also frequently detected in the GI tract of solid organ transplant patients [76], has been identified in endodontic abscesses [54], and is the virus found in adenoids and tonsils, particularly in children affected by upper airway infections [35].…”
