Changes in Cerebrospinal Fluid Biomarkers in Human Herpesvirus-6-Associated Acute Encephalopathy/Febrile Seizures
Figure 1
Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) levels of oxidative stress markers in HHV-6 encephalopathy, HHV-6 complex febrile seizures (FS), and controls. (a) 8-hydroxy-2′-deoxyguanosine: 8-OHdG, (b) hexanoyl-lysine adduct: HEL. , . The horizontal bar indicates the mean value of each group. CSF-8OHdG levels (mean ± SD) in HHV-6 encephalopathy, HHV-6 complex FS, and controls are ng/mL, ng/mL, and ng/mL, respectively. CSF-HEL levels (mean ± SD) in HHV-6 encephalopathy, HHV-6 complex FS, and control subjects are nmol/L, nmol/L, and nmol/L, respectively.
