Bioportfolio: Lifelong persistence of variant and prototypic erythrovirus DNA genomes in human tissue
Abstract
Human erythrovirus is a minute, single-stranded DNA virus causing many diseases, including erythema infectiosum, arthropathy, and fetal death. After primary infection, the viral genomes persist in solid tissues. Besides the prototype, virus type 1, two major variants (virus types 2 and 3) have been identified recently, the clinical significance and epidemiology of which are mostly unknown. We examined 523 samples of skin, synovium, tonsil, or liver (birth year range, 1913–2000), and 1,640 sera, by qualitative and quantitative molecular assays for the DNA of human erythroviruses. Virus types 1 and 2 were found in 132 (25%) and 58 (11%) tissues, respectively. DNA of virus type 1 was found in all age groups, whereas that of type 2 was strictly confined to those subjects born before 1973 ( P < 0.001). Correspondingly, the sera from the past two decades contained DNA of type 1 but not type 2 or 3. Our data suggest strongly that the newly identified human erythrovirus type 2 as well as the prototype 1 circulated in Northern and Central Europe in equal frequency, more than half a century ago, whereafter type 2 disappeared from circulation. Type 3 never attained wide occurrence in this area during the past ≥70 years. The erythrovirus DNA persistence in human tissues is lifelong and represents a source of information about our past, the Bioportfolio , which, at the individual level, provides a registry of one’s infectious encounters, and at the population level, a database for epidemiological and phylogenetic analyses.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
