HHV‐8 and AIDS‐related CNS lymphoma
Neurology, 1997Human herpesvirus 8 (HHV-8), the Kaposi's sarcoma (KS)-associated herpesvirus, is closely related to the transforming Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) and may be detected in AIDS-related, EBV-containing, body-cavity-based lymphomas. Accordingly, we analyzed 27 EBV-positive, AIDS-related CNS lymphomas for HHV-8 sequences. Only one tumor yielded HHV-8 sequences;

BACKGROUND: Human herpesvirus 8 (HHV‐8) is endemic in Uganda where seroprevalence is approximately 40%. In a previous study, Ugandan patients receiving blood transfusions had multiple serum specimens collected for 6 months after transfusion to monitor for HHV‐8 infection.

KAPOSI'S DISEASE: HHV-8 sequences have been found in all the epidemiological forms of Kaposi's disease. There is a direct relationship between HHV-8 infection and PBMC and later development of Kaposi's disease. The HHV-8 sequences can be found in spindle cells or endothelial cells in Kaposi lesions. OTHER DISEASES: HHV-8 is also associated with certain

The role of HHV-8 in Kaposi's sarcoma
Seminars in Cancer Biology, 1999The epidemiology of Kaposi's sarcoma (KS) amongst North American and Northern European patients with AIDS suggests that an infectious agent other than HIV is involved in its pathogenesis. Several lines of evidence indicate that human herpesvirus 8 (HHV-8), also termed Kaposi's sarcoma associated herpesvirus, is the sought after agent.

[Lymphoid hemopathies and HHV-8].
Annales de pathologie, 2010HHV-8 is a gamma herpes virus described for the first time in humans in 1994 within Kaposi's disease cells. Since, it has been found to be involved in lymphoïd proliferative disorders. First, it has been described in multicentric Castleman's disease (100 % of HIV infected patients and 50 % of HIV negative patients), in multicentric Castleman's disease ...

[Human herpesvirus 8 (HHV-8)].
La Revue du praticien, 2000Human herpesvirus 8 (HHV-8) is associated with all epidemiological forms of Kaposi's sarcoma (KS), multicentric Castleman's disease and primary effusion lymphomas. HHV-8 is a gamma herpesvirus and his genome consists of an estimated 140 kb long unique coding region.

Recently, a new member of the gamma-herpesvirus family, human herpesvirus 8 (HHV-8), was identified in a case of Kaposi's sarcoma. This virus has also been found in the nonmalignant dendritic cells of the bone marrow from myeloma patients. In addition, HHV-8 is also detectable in the peripheral blood of most patients although its absence suggests ...

HHV-8 infection in African children.
Herpes : the journal of the IHMF, 2004Human herpesvirus 8 (HHV-8) is prevalent in Africa and parts of southern Europe, but less common elsewhere. It is analogous to its distant relative, the Epstein-Barr virus, in that it rarely causes disease in the immunocompetent host but is highly oncogenic when associated with immunosuppression or HIV-1 infection.
