Mycosis fungoides and Kaposi’s sarcoma association in an HIV-negative patient [PDF]
Anais Brasileiros de Dermatologia, 2016 The association of mycosis fungoides and kaposi’s sarcoma in HIV-negative patients is a rare phenomenon. The presence of human herpesvirus 8 (HHV-8) – associated with all forms of Kaposi’s sarcoma – has also been recently identified in mycosis fungoides ...

Kaposi’s sarcoma associated with chronic myeloid leukemia and imatinib mesylate therapy
Clinical Case Reports, 2022 Kaposi's sarcoma is associated with immunosuppression and human herpesvirus 8 infection, while rarely described in myeloid malignancies. Here, we illustrate a rare case of chronic myeloid leukemia treated with imatinib, a tyrosine kinase inhibitor, who ...

Pulmonary Kaposi's sarcoma—an atypical clinical presentation
International Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2022 HIV-associated Kaposi's sarcoma is an angioproliferative neoplasia caused by infection with human herpesvirus 8. It typically presents with mucocutaneous involvement. Pulmonary Kaposi's sarcoma is rare, and an uncommon form of initial presentation of the

Angiogenesis, Kaposi’s sarcoma and Kaposi’s sarcoma-associated herpesvirus [PDF]
Virologica Sinica, 2008 Tumor angiogenesis is the uncontrolled growth of blood vessels in tumors, serving to supply nutrients and oxygen, and remove metabolic wastes. Kaposi's sarcoma (KS), a multifocal angioproliferative disorder characterized by spindle cell proliferation, neo-angiogenesis, inflammation, and edema, is associated with infection by Kaposi's sarcoma-associated

The Ubiquitin System and Kaposi’s Sarcoma-Associated Herpesvirus [PDF]
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2012 Ubiquitination is a post-translational modification in which one or more ubiquitin molecules are covalently linked to lysine residues of target proteins. The ubiquitin system plays a key role in the regulation of protein degradation, which contributes to cell signaling, vesicular trafficking, apoptosis, and immune regulation.

Vertical transmission of Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus [PDF]
International Journal of Cancer, 2001 Little is presently known about the specific routes of transmission of Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) or human herpesvirus-8 (HHV-8). To investigate whether this agent might be transmitted vertically from mother to infant, we conducted a study on 89 KSHV seropositive mothers and their newborn infants.

Elevated iNOS and 3′-nitrotyrosine in Kaposi's Sarcoma tumors and mouse model
Tumour Virus Research, 2023 Kaposi's Sarcoma (KS) is a heterogenous, multifocal vascular malignancy caused by the human herpesvirus 8 (HHV8), also known as Kaposi's Sarcoma-Associated Herpesvirus (KSHV). Here, we show that KS lesions express iNOS/NOS2 broadly throughout KS lesions,

Epidemiology and pathogenesis of Kaposi's sarcoma–associated herpesvirus [PDF]
Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society of London. Series B: Biological Sciences, 2001 Kaposi's sarcoma (KS) occurs in Europe and the Mediterranean countries (classic KS) and Africa (endemic KS), immunosuppressed patients (iatrogenic or post–transplant KS) and those with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS), especially among those who acquired human immunodeficiency virus sexually (AIDS–KS). KS–associated herpesvirus (KSHV or HHV–8)
