Some viruses can establish life-long persistence in their hosts after primary infection. The main aims of this thesis were to investigate the persistence, molecular epidemiology, and evolution of human parvovirus B19 (B19V). B19V is a small single-stranded DNA virus that has been shown to persist in various human soft tissues. The disease associations or mechanisms of this persistence, both at the cellular and molecular level, have remained unknown. At the beginning of this thesis work, we developed a quantitative PCR (qPCR) method for the detection, quantification, and differentiation of all three B19V genotypes. The method was shown to be suitable for B19V diagnosis and research both in human body fluids and solid tissue samples. Measure...
