SUMMARY
Chromosomally integrated human herpesvirus 6 (ciHHV- 6) is a condition in which the complete HHV-6 genome
is integrated into the host germ line genome and is vert ically transmitted in a Mendelian manner. The condition

transplant recipients and other patient populations in several small studies. HHV-6 levels in whole blood that
exceed 5.5 log10 copies/ml are strongly suggestive of ciHHV-6. Monitoring DNA load in plasma and serum is
unreliable, both for identifying and for monitoring subje cts with ciHHV-6 due to cell lysis and release of cellular
DNA. High HHV-6 DNA loads associated with ciHHV-6 can lead to erroneous diagnosis of active infection.
Transplant recipients with ciHHV-6 may be at increased r isk for bacterial infection and graft rejection. ciHHV-6
can be induced to a state of active viral replication in vitro . It is not known whether ciHHV-6 individuals are
p u ta tc l i n i c a lr i s kb yt h eu s eo fd r u g st h a th a v e been associated with HHV-6 reactivation in vivo orin vitro .
Nonetheless, we urge careful observation when use of such drugs is indicated in individuals known to have
ciHHV-6. Little is known about whether individuals with c iHHV-6 develop immune tolerance for viral proteins.
Further research is needed to determine the role of ciHH V-6 in disease. Copyright © 2011 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

INTRODUCTION
This is a review of chromosomally integrated
human herpesvirus 6 (ciHHV-6) and its potential
clinical implications (Table 1), in the form of a series
of questions and answers. The major points are
summarized in Table 2. In many areas, available
data are insuf ficient to support evidence-based
guidance, leaving us with our opinions. We provide
a list of research questions (Table 3) to motivate
studies that will allow more extensive evidence-
based guidance to be offered in several years. Table 4
lists drugs associated with HHV-6 reactivation; an
expanded version is provided in Supplemental
Table 1. Background information about human
herpesvirus 6 (HHV-6) and ciHHV-6 is available
elsewhere [1 –6].What is human herpesvirus 6?
Human herpesvirus 6 is the collective name for
HHV-6A and HHV-6B, which are two closely related
herpesviruses that have a combined seroprevalence
of>90% in adults. HHV-6B is typically transmitted
via saliva and primary infection usually occurs
between 6 months and 2 –3 years of age. Many
primary HHV-6B infections are not associated
with any speci fic clinical features, although the
virus causes roseola infantum (exanthema subitum
or sixth disease) in ~30% of children, presenting
with high-grade fever followed by a characteristic
rash that is sometimes accompanied by benign
febrile convulsions, and rarely by status epilepticus.
Little is known about primary HHV-6A infection
and its disease associations. For the 99% of the
Table 1. Clinical scenarios that may be associated with ciHHV-6
Misdiagnosis of active HHV-6 infection in ciHHV-6 individuals presenting with unconnected illnesses.
Incidental positivity of CSF PCR for HHV-6 in ciHHV-6 patients with CSF pleocytosis resulting in
erroneous diagnosis and unnecessary treatment.
Persistence of high levels of HHV-6 genomes (high HHV-6 DNA copy numbers).
Transmission of ciHHV-6 hematopoietic cells from donor to recipient following allogeneic HSCT.
Presence of high levels of HHV-6 DNA in the non-hematopoietic tissues but not in the hematopoietic
tissues of a ciHHV-6 individual who received a non-ciHHV-6 HCST.
Transplantation of a solid organ from an individual with ciHHV-6 to a recipient without ciHHV-6.
Potential for ciHHV-6 reactivation in immunocompromised hosts.
Potential for ciHHV-6 reactivation in individuals treated with certain drugs.
Increased risk of bacterial infection in SOT recipients with ciHHV-6.
Uncertainty as to whether to treat ciHHV-6 patients who have symptoms associated with HHV-6 activity,
such as CNS dysfunction.
