Atopic dermatitis: A tale of two distinct pathomechanisms that make you itch.

abstract：:The importance of human herpesvirus 6 (HHV-6) species as human pathogens is increasingly appreciated. However, we do not understand how infection is controlled in healthy virus carriers, and why control fails in patients with disease. Other persistent viruses are under continuous surveillance by antigen-specific T cel...
