Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus in Kikuchi's disease

Human Pathology, 1998
Kikuchi's disease is a fairly common self-limited disorder among Orientals that usually involves the cervical lymph nodes of young individuals and occurs predominantly in females. Frequently, the disease is associated with fever or flu-like symptoms, an elevated erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), neutropenia, and lymphocytosis with atypical ...

Kaposi Sarcoma-associated Herpesvirus: mechanisms of oncogenesis

Current Opinion in Virology, 2015
Kaposi Sarcoma-associated Herpesvirus (KSHV, HHV8) causes three human malignancies, Kaposi Sarcoma (KS), an endothelial tumor, as well as Primary Effusion Lymphoma (PEL) and the plasma cell variant of Multicentric Castleman's Disease (MCD), two B-cell lymphoproliferative diseases.

Vaccine prospect of Kaposi sarcoma-associated herpesvirus

Current Opinion in Virology, 2012
Infection of Kaposi sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) or human herpesvirus-8 (HHV-8) is estimated to account for 34,000 new cancer cases globally. Unlike other herpesviruses, KSHV is not ubiquitous but is highly prevalent in some areas, such as sub-Saharan Africa where Kaposi sarcoma is the leading cancer among adults.

Molecular piracy of Kaposi's sarcoma associated herpesvirus

Cytokine & Growth Factor Reviews, 2001
Kaposi's Sarcoma associated Herpesvirus (KSHV) is the most recently discovered human tumor virus and is associated with the pathogenesis of Kaposi's sarcoma, primary effusion lymphoma, and Multicentric Casttleman's disease. KSHV contains numerous open reading frames with striking homology to cellular genes.

The molecular pathology of Kaposi’s sarcoma-associated herpesvirus

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Reviews on Cancer, 2002
Kaposi's sarcoma (KS)-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) is the eighth and most recently identified human herpesvirus (HHV-8). KSHV was discovered in 1994 by Chang et al. who used representational difference analysis to search for DNA sequences present in AIDS-associated KS but not in adjacent normal skin [1].

Seroepidemiology of Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV)

Seminars in Cancer Biology, 1999
Since the Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV also referred to as HHV-8, human herpesvirus-8) was discovered it has been shown that the virus is associated with all cases of Kaposi's sarcoma (KS) classical, endemic, or AIDS associated. In the numerous countries where the seroprevalence of this virus has been studied, data demonstrate that the

The role of Kaposi sarcoma‐associated herpesvirus in the pathogenesis of Kaposi sarcoma

The Journal of Pathology, 2014
AbstractKaposi sarcoma (KS) is an unusual vascular tumour caused by an oncogenic‐herpesvirus, Kaposi sarcoma‐associated herpesvirus (KSHV), also known as human herpesvirus 8 (HHV 8). KS lesions are characterized by an abundant inflammatory infiltrate, the presence of KSHV‐infected endothelial cells that show signs of aberrant differentiation, as well ...

Kaposi Sarcoma‐Associated Herpesvirus and Kidney Disease

Journal of Medical Virology
ABSTRACT Kaposi sarcoma‐associated herpesvirus (KSHV), also known as human herpesvirus 8, is a carcinogenic gamma herpesvirus strongly associated with various human malignancies, including Kaposi sarcoma. Compromised immune function is a critical risk factor for the development of Kaposi sarcoma, particularly in individuals with human
