Regulation of alphaherpesvirus infections by the ICP0 family of proteins [PDF]
Immediate-early protein ICP0 of herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) is important for the regulation of lytic and latent viral infection. Like the related proteins expressed by other alphaherpesviruses, ICP0 has a zinc-stabilized RING finger domain that ...

ABSTRACT Kaposi sarcoma (KS) is a vascular neoplasm associated with human herpesvirus 8 (HHV‐8), typically affecting immunocompromised individuals. However, emerging reports describe cases in HIV‐negative men who have sex with men (MSM), constituting a proposed non‐epidemic variant.

HIV-negative disseminated Kaposi’s sarcoma in a Taiwanese patient
Kaposi’s sarcoma is a common malignancy associated with HIV/AIDS. Herein, we describe the case of a 26-year-old man who presented with bilateral neck and inguinal lymphadenopathy, a massive tumor on the gum, and a nodule over the left eye.

Human herpesvirus 8 seropositivity among sexually active adults in Uganda.
IntroductionSexual transmission of human herpesvirus 8 (HHV8) has been implicated among homosexual men, but the evidence for sexual transmission among heterosexual individuals is controversial. We investigated the role of sexual transmission of HHV8 in a

Atomic structures and deletion mutant reveal different capsid-binding patterns and functional significance of tegument protein pp150 in murine and human cytomegaloviruses with implications for therapeutic development. [PDF]
Cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection causes birth defects and life-threatening complications in immunosuppressed patients. Lack of vaccine and need for more effective drugs have driven widespread ongoing therapeutic development efforts against human CMV (HCMV)

Kaposiform hemangioendothelioma: Diagnosis and treatment
Vascular endothelial growth factor‐C (VEGF‐C)/vascular endothelial growth factor receptor‐3 (VEGFR‐3) and angiopoietin‐2 (Ang‐2)/tyrosine kinase with immunoglobulin‐like and EGF‐like domain 2 (TIE2) signaling pathways play an important role in lymphangiogenesis.

The strong enhancer element in the immediate early region of the human cytomegalovirus genome [PDF]
The human cytomegalovirus (HCMV), a member of the herpesvirus group, was found to possess a strong transcription enhancer in the immediate early gene region. Co-transfection of enhancerless SV40 DNA with randomly fragmented HCMV DNA yielded two SV40-
