Identification of the Kaposi\u27s Sarcoma-associated Herpesvirus (KSHV) Surface Glycoprotein Targets of Human KSHV-specific Neutralizing Antibody Responses [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Kaposi’s sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV), also known as human herpesvirus 8 (HHV-8), is the etiological agent of Kaposi’s sarcoma (KS), and is also associated with two B cell malignancies, primary effusion lymphoma and multicentric Castleman\u27s ...

Factors affecting Kaposi’s sarcoma-associated herpesvirus transmission in rural Ugandan households, a longitudinal study

open access: yesInfectious Agents and Cancer
Background We report the impact of HIV infection within a household on oral Kaposi’s sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) shedding. Methods We enrolled 469 individuals from 90 households.

Ago HITS-CLIP expands understanding of Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus miRNA function in primary effusion lymphomas.

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2012
KSHV is the etiological agent of Kaposi's sarcoma (KS), primary effusion lymphoma (PEL), and a subset of multicentricCastleman's disease (MCD). The fact that KSHV-encoded miRNAs are readily detectable in all KSHV-associated tumors suggests a potential ...

KSHV vGPCR: A VIRAL ONCOPROTEIN THAT TRIGGERS AUTOPHAGY AND CELLULAR SENESCENCE

open access: yes, 2011
Autophagy (literally to ‘self-eat’) is an intracellular, catabolic mechanism to degrade and recycle cytoplasmic contents in response to metabolic, oxidative, and genotoxic stresses.

EBV/KSHV co-infection: an effective partnership

open access: yes, 2018
International audienceKaposi's sarcoma human herpesvirus (KSHV) is the etiologic agent of primary effusion lymphoma (PEL) in which Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) is also very often present. By using a humanized mouse model, Pr.

KSHV: forgotten but not gone

open access: yes, 2011
Thirty years ago, Kaposi sarcoma (KS) arose as a prominent manifestation of the AIDS epidemic. Seventeen years ago we discovered the virus that causes KS, 1 Kaposi sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV), and within a year KSHV had been also shown to be ...

Oncogenic herpesvirus KSHV triggers hallmarks of alternative lengthening of telomeres

open access: yes, 2021
To achieve replicative immortality, cancer cells must activate telomere maintenance mechanisms to prevent telomere shortening. ~85% of cancers circumvent telomeric attrition by re-expressing telomerase, while the remaining ~15% of cancers induce ...

KSHV-Mediated Angiogenesis in Tumor Progression

open access: yes, 2016
Human herpesvirus 8 (HHV-8), also known as Kaposi’s sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV), is a malignant human oncovirus belonging to the gamma herpesvirus family. HHV-8 is closely linked to the pathogenesis of Kaposi’s sarcoma (KS) and two other B-cell

Sequencing of Kaposi's Sarcoma Herpesvirus (KSHV) genomes from persons of diverse ethnicities and provenances with KSHV-associated diseases demonstrate multiple infections, novel polymorphisms, and low intra-host variance.

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens
Recently published near full-length KSHV genomes from a Cameroon Kaposi sarcoma case-control study showed strong evidence of viral recombination and mixed infections, but no sequence variations associated with disease.

Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) gB dictates a low-pH endocytotic entry pathway as revealed by a dual-fluorescent virus system and a rhesus monkey rhadinovirus expressing KSHV gB.

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens
Interaction with host cell receptors initiates internalization of Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) particles. Fusion of viral and host cell membranes, which is followed by release of the viral capsid into the cytoplasm, is executed by the ...
