Human herpesvirus-8 (HHV-8) antibodies in women from São Paulo, Brazil: association with behavioral factors and Kaposi's sarcoma

Brazilian Journal of Infectious Diseases
BACKGROUND: With the spread of AIDS, many HIV-infected women have been diagnosed with Kaposi's sarcoma (KS), especially in Africa. Since the discovery of a novel herpesvirus as the causative agent of KS (human herpesvirus 8 - HHV-8) several ...

Efficacy of High‐Dose Intravenous Anakinra in Pediatric TAFRO Syndrome: Report of Two Cases and Literature Review

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT TAFRO (thrombocytopenia, anasarca, fever, reticulin fibrosis, renal insufficiency, and organomegaly) syndrome is a rare, life‐threatening inflammatory condition linked to infections, neoplasms, and idiopathic multicentric Castleman disease. Interleukin (IL)‐6 inhibitors are the primary treatment, but refractory cases require alternatives. This

Tethered Catalytic Hairpin Assembly with Plasmon‐Enhanced Fluorescence Readout for Single Molecule Detection

Small Methods, EarlyView.
This work presents a single‐molecule detection platform that does not rely on the partitioning of analyzed liquid samples and on enzymatic amplification of fluorescence signals. A flexible polymer linker serves to spatially confine catalytic‐harpin assembly‐based DNA amplification.

Professional antigen presenting cells in human herpesvirus 8 infection

Frontiers in Immunology, 2013
Professional antigen presenting cells (APC), i.e., dendritic cells, monocytes/macrophages, and B lymphocytes, are critically important in the recognition of an invading pathogen and presentation of antigens to the T cell-mediated arm of immunity.

Robust resilience enhancement strategy for gas‐electricity integrated energy system considering multiple reinforcement levels

IET Renewable Power Generation, EarlyView.
In order to improve the resilience of the gas‐electricity integrated energy system under natural disasters, this paper proposes a three‐layer defence‐attack‐defence robust resilience improvement model with the objective of minimizing the load loss in the gas‐electricity integrated energy system.

Proliferation in HHV-8-Positive Primary Effusion Lymphomas Is Associated with Expression of HHV-8 Cyclin but Independent of p27kip1 [PDF]

The American Journal of Pathology, 2000
Primary effusion lymphoma (PEL) develops in immunodeficient patients, selectively localizes to the serous body cavities, and harbors infection by human herpesvirus type-8 (HHV-8), also known as Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus. HHV-8 encodes a viral (v)-cyclin homologous to cellular D-type cyclins, a class of positive cell-cycle regulators that ...

A 37‐Year Retrospective Analysis Reveals a High Rate of Cutaneous Angiosarcoma of the Scalp in Okinawa, Japan

Cancer Science, Volume 116, Issue 4, Page 1059-1067, April 2025.
A 37‐year retrospective analysis has revealed an exceptionally high rate of angiosarcoma of the scalp in Okinawa, Japan. This study represents the first identification of Okinawa as a hotspot for this rare cancer, the epidemiology of which has been insufficiently studied.

The role of immune suppression and HHV-8 in the increasing incidence of HIV-associated multicentric Castleman's disease.

Annals of Oncology, 2009
BACKGROUND In HIV cohorts with access to highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART), the incidence of Kaposi's sarcoma (KS) is falling; however, the incidence of multicentric Castleman's disease (MCD) in HIV has not previously been described ...
