KSHV and Human Diseases: Beyond KS, PEL and MCD

Microorganisms
Kaposi’s Sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) has been etiologically linked to several human cancers, including Kaposi’s sarcoma (KS), primary effusion lymphoma (PEL), and multicentric Castleman’s disease (MCD). However, recent studies suggest that KSHV

Cells of the Innate and Adaptive Immune Systems in Kaposi’s Sarcoma

Journal of Immunology Research, 2020
Kaposi’s sarcoma (KS) is an angioproliferative malignancy whose associated etiologic agent is the Kaposi’s sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV). KS is the most prevalent malignancy among HIV-infected individuals globally and is considered an AIDS ...

Development of KSHV vaccine platforms and chimeric MHV68-K-K8.1 glycoprotein for evaluating the in vivo immunogenicity and efficacy of KSHV vaccine candidates

mBio
Kaposi’s sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV)/human herpesvirus 8 is an etiological agent of Kaposi’s Sarcoma, multicentric Castleman’s disease, and primary effusion lymphoma. Considering the high seroprevalence reaching up to 80% in sub-Saharan Africa,

CRISPR-Cas9 Screening of Kaposi’s Sarcoma-Associated Herpesvirus-Transformed Cells Identifies XPO1 as a Vulnerable Target of Cancer Cells

mBio, 2019
The abnormal proliferation of cancer cells is driven by deregulated oncogenes or tumor suppressors, among which the cancer-vulnerable genes are attractive therapeutic targets.

Next‐Generation Sequencing Methods for Sensitive Hepatitis B Viral Genome Analysis: A European Study

Journal of Medical Virology, Volume 98, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT This multicentre study investigated the utility of next‐generation sequencing (NGS) to detect and generate hepatitis B virus (HBV) genomes in samples of low viral load (from 0.2 to 6207 IU/mL). 23 HBV DNA‐positive plasma samples of genotypes A‐E and one HBV‐negative control sample were assayed blindly via 9 established NGS methods from 6 ...

Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) vIL-6 promotes cell proliferation and migration by upregulating DNMT1 via STAT3 activation.

PLoS ONE, 2014
Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) is etiologically associated with Kaposi's sarcoma (KS), the most common AIDS-related malignancy. KSHV vIL-6 promotes KS development, but the exact mechanisms remain unclear. Here, we reported that KSHV vIL-6

When to consider an inborn error of immunity: clues for physicians

Internal Medicine Journal, Volume 56, Issue 9, Page 1488-1499, September 2026.
Abstract The term inborn errors of immunity (IEIs) refers to the rapidly expanding group of genetic disorders causing dysregulation of the immune system. With improved genetic testing in recent years, the number of defined IEIs and their range of phenotypic presentations has grown vastly, with more than 550 IEIs now described.

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.
