Human Herpesvirus 8 Reactivation and Human Immunodeficiency Virus Type 1 gp120
Abstract Context.—Human herpesvirus 8 (HHV-8) is the presumed etiologic agent of Kaposi sarcoma (KS), the most common neoplasm in patients with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome. Current evidence indicates HHV-8 is necessary, but not sufficient, for KS development without the involvement of other cofactors.

Seroprevalence of Human Herpesvirus-8 in HIV-1 Infected and Uninfected Individuals in Cameroon [PDF]
We evaluated the prevalence of HHV-8 antibodies in 516 plasma samples collected from HIV positive and negative patients from blood banks and urban areas of Cameroon. Among HIV-1 positive samples, HHV-8 seropositivity rate was 61% based on combined reactivity using both ELISA and IFA techniques.

Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus oncoprotein K13 protects against B cell receptor induced growth arrest and apoptosis through NF-κB activation [PDF]
Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) has been linked to the development of Kaposi's sarcoma, primary effusion lymphoma and multicentric Castleman's disease (MCD). We have characterized the role of KSHV-encoded viral FLICE inhibitory protein K13

In Vitro and In Vivo Transactivation of HIV-1 by Human Herpesvirus 6 [PDF]
1.1 Latency and reactivation of HIV-1 Since the discovery of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1), there has been a great deal of interest in identifying cofactors that might accelerate the stages of development associated with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS).

Contribution of carbohydrate-related metabolism in Herpesvirus infections
Human herpesviruses are enveloped viruses with double-stranded linear DNA genomes highly prevalent in the human population. These viruses are subdivided into three subfamilies, namely alphaherpesvirinae (herpes simplex virus type 1, HSV-1; herpes simplex

A tail-like assembly at the portal vertex in intact herpes simplex type-1 virions [PDF]
Herpes viruses are prevalent and well characterized human pathogens. Despite extensive study, much remains to be learned about the structure of the genome packaging and release machinery in the capsids of these large and complex double-stranded DNA ...
