Epigenetic Regulation of Kaposi’s Sarcoma-Associated Herpesvirus Latency
Kaposi’s sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) is an oncogenic γ-herpesvirus that infects humans and exhibits a biphasic life cycle consisting of latent and lytic phases.

Among 135 cases of post‐liver transplant HHV8 disease (4 from NSW), presentations varied, and mortality was high (44%). Donor screening was rare, and donor‐derived infection was suspected in 33%. Survival improved with mTORi, reduced immunosuppression, chemotherapy, and, for non‐KS disease, donor screening. ABSTRACT Background Human herpesvirus 8 (HHV8)

Kaposi‘s Sarcoma-Associated Herpesvirus and Innate Immunity [PDF]
Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) is the most recently discovered human herpesvirus, first isolated and identified from a Kaposi's sarcoma lesion in 1994. It is the etiological agent of Kaposi's sarcoma, a vascular lesion that is the predominant cancer among AIDS patients. KSHV is also the primary etiological agent of two B-cell lymphomas,

Latent equine herpesvirus infections in horses [PDF]
A significant characteristic of the herpesviruses is that they form latent infections in infected hosts, and can be reactivated to again induce lytic infections by stressors.

Infection with Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) in relation to the risk and clinical presentation of Kaposi's sarcoma in Uganda. [PDF]
A case-control study from Uganda found that the risk of Kaposi's sarcoma increased with increasing titre of antibodies against Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) latent nuclear antigens, independently of HIV infection.

This study identifies p300 as the acetyltransferase that acetylates TBK1 and inhibits its phosphorylation. Activation of the p53‐SIAH1 axis by immune response downregulates p300 expression to sustain innate antiviral immunity. Conditional p300 knockout in alveolar epithelial cells in vivo promotes antiviral responses and suppresses virus replication ...

Functions of Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus microRNAs [PDF]
MicroRNAs can modulate gene expression post-transcriptionally by altering mRNA stability and protein translation. Multiple DNA viruses express viral microRNAs and have been shown to modulate expression of host and viral genes. Through various methods of microRNA target identification, we are beginning to understand the various roles of viral miRNAs ...

HUMAN IMMUNODEFICIENCY VIRUS AND CANCER IN CHILDREN IN SOUTH AFRICA [PDF]
Background. Infection with human immunodeficiency virus-1 (HIV) increases the incidence of certain cancers in adults. Much less is known about the impact of infection on the risk of cancer in children. Aim.

The Significance of cGAS‐STING Signaling in Response to Oncogenic Viruses
ABSTRACT The cyclic GMP‐AMP synthase (cGAS)‐stimulator of interferon genes (STING) signaling pathway, as a key DNA sensor, plays a significant role in the regulation of innate immune responses. This pathway can be activated by sensing abnormal DNA, and is of great significance for resisting the invasion of pathogenic microorganisms and maintaining ...

Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus encodes a functional cyclin [PDF]
Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) (also called human herpesvirus 8) is consistently found in Kaposi's sarcoma lesions and in body-cavity-based lymphomas. A 17-kb KSHV lambda clone was obtained directly from a Kaposi's sarcoma lesion. DNA sequence analysis of this clone identified an open reading frame which has 32% amino acid identity and ...
