Pregnancy and Human Herpesvirus 8 Reactivation in Human Immunodeficiency Virus Type 1-Infected Women [PDF]

Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 2006
ABSTRACT To investigate the impact of pregnancy on human herpesvirus 8 (HHV-8) reactivation in human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1)-infected women, the HHV-8 DNA presence and load were analyzed in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) and cervicovaginal secretions (CVSs) from 15 pregnant women coinfected with HIV-1 and HHV-8.

Complete genome sequence and taxonomic position of anguillid herpesvirus 1 [PDF]

, 2010
Eel herpesvirus or anguillid herpesvirus 1 (AngHV1) frequently causes disease in freshwater eels. The complete genome sequence of AngHV1 and its taxonomic position within the family Alloherpesviridae were determined. Shotgun sequencing revealed a 249 kbp

Mouse Models for Human Herpesviruses

Pathogens, 2023
More than one hundred herpesviruses have been isolated from different species so far, with nine infecting humans. Infections with herpesviruses are characterized by life-long latency and represent a significant challenge for human health.

Using CSF Proteomics to Investigate Herpesvirus Infections of the Central Nervous System

Viruses, 2022
Herpesviruses have complex mechanisms enabling infection of the human CNS and evasion of the immune system, allowing for indefinite latency in the host. Herpesvirus infections can cause severe complications of the central nervous system (CNS).

An alphaherpesvirus exploits antimicrobial beta-defensins to initiate respiratory tract infection [PDF]

, 2020
beta-Defensins protect the respiratory tract against the myriad of microbial pathogens entering the airways with each breath. However, this potentially hostile environment is known to serve as a portal of entry for herpesviruses.

Tumorigenesis by Human Herpesvirus 8 vGPCR Is Accelerated by Human Immuodeficiency Virus Type 1 Tat [PDF]

Journal of Virology, 2004
ABSTRACTHuman herpesvirus 8 (HHV-8), also called Kaposi's sarcoma (KS) herpesvirus, can cause KS but is inefficient. Untreated human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) coinfection is a powerful risk factor. The HHV-8 chemokine receptor, vGPCR (ORF74), activates NF-κB and NF-AT, and their levels of activation are synergistically increased by HIV-1 ...

Genome signatures, self-organizing maps and higher order phylogenies: a parametric analysis [PDF]

, 2007
Genome signatures are data vectors derived from the compositional statistics of DNA. The self-organizing map (SOM) is a neural network method for the conceptualisation of relationships within complex data, such as genome signatures.

Herpes Group Viruses: a Seroprevalence Study in Hemodialysis Patients

Acta Clinica Croatica, 2017
Herpes group viruses (herpes simplex virus, HSV; varicella-zoster virus, VZV; cytomegalovirus, CMV; and Epstein-Barr virus, EBV) remain an important cause of morbidity in immunocompromised persons.

Multiple human herpesvirus-8 infection [PDF]

, 2003
In Malawian patients with Kaposi sarcoma (KS) and their relatives, we investigated nucleotide-sequence variation in human herpesvirus-8 (HHV-8) subgenomic DNA, amplified from oral and blood samples by use of polymerase chain reaction.

Induction of Human Immunodeficiency Virus 1 Replication by Human Herpesvirus 8

Archives of Pathology & Laboratory Medicine, 2001
Abstract Background.—Human immunodeficiency virus 1 (HIV-1)–infected individuals are commonly infected with herpesviruses, including cytomegalovirus, herpes simplex virus, varicella-zoster virus, and human herpesvirus 8 (HHV-8, also known as Kaposi sarcoma–associated herpesvirus [KSHV]).
