KSHV Induction of Angiogenic and Lymphangiogenic Phenotypes
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2012 Kaposi’s Sarcoma is a highly vascularized tumor supporting large amounts of neo-angiogenesis. The major cell type in KS tumors is the spindle cell, a cell that expresses markers of lymphatic endothelium. KSHV, the etiologic agent of KS, is found in the

Neuroinflammation as a result of non‐neurotropic herpesvirus infection
Immunology &Cell Biology, EarlyView.Atypical memory B cells (ABCs) might stimulate autoreactive T cells to cause neuroinflammation and CNS myeloid cell activation during MS. Abstract The non‐neurotropic Epstein Barr virus (EBV) has been suggested to initiate the prodromal phase of multiple sclerosis (MS), often years before the first clinical symptoms. This review discusses mechanisms by
