A cDNA library from phorbol ester-induced human herpesvirus-8 (HHV-8) carrying BCBL-1
cells was screened with an HIV+ KS+ serum, and several cDNA clones encoding HHV-8 …

Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) DNA persists in latently infected cells as
an episome via tethering to the host chromosomes. The latency-associated nuclear antigen …

Kaposi's sarcoma (KS) represents today one of the most common skin cancers in
transplanted Mediterranean subjects and, since the epidemic of human immunodeficiency …

ABSTRACT Human herpesvirus 8 (HHV-8) is likely to be involved in the pathogenesis of
Kaposi's sarcoma (KS) and body cavity-based lymphomas (BCBLs). The HHV-8 genome is …

Abstract The CDC, National Institutes of Health, and the HIV Medicine Association of the
Infectious Diseases Society of America have developed guidelines for treatment of …

OBJECTIVE:: To review the current South American literature on classic Kaposi's sarcoma
(KS) and human herpesvirus 8 (HHV-8), and point the way for studies that still need to be …

Transmission routes of Kaposi's sarcoma‐associated herpesvirus (KSHV) in the general
population are poorly understood. Whereas sexual transmission appears to be common in …

BACKGROUND: The incidence of Kaposi's sarcoma (KS) is increased severalfold in
individuals infected with human immunodeficiency virus-1 (HIV). Human herpesvirus 8 …

Evidence indicates that, at least in the early stage, Kaposi's sarcoma (KS) is a cytokine-
mediated disease and that it is consistently associated with a novel herpesvirus termed …

Objective Human herpesvirus 8 (HHV8) is believed to be transmitted mainly by sexual
contact; epidemiological data from Africa show, however, that non-sexual transmission …
