- Study investigates herpesvirus genome integration in dementia and control cohorts.
- Over 7500 whole-genome sequences analyzed using PathSeq tool.
- Higher prevalence of partial HHV-6 integration in synucleinopathies (LBD and MSA).
- Suggests potential role of HHV-6 integration in subsets of dementia patients.
- No significant integration noted for other herpesviruses in these cohorts.
