Characteristics of circulating KSHV-infected viroblasts during active KSHV+ multicentric Castleman disease

open access: yesBlood Advances, 2023
Abstract Kaposi sarcoma–associated herpesvirus (KSHV)/human herpesvirus 8–associated multicentric Castleman disease (MCD) is a polyclonal B-cell lymphoproliferative disorder that mainly occurs in immunocompromised hosts. The diagnosis relies on lymph node biopsy demonstrating KSHV-infected cells located in the mantle zone with a marked ...

Kaposi’s Sarcoma-Associated Herpesvirus and Host Interaction by the Complement System

open access: yesPathogens, 2020
Kaposi’s sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) modulates the immune response to allow the virus to establish persistent infection in the host and facilitate the development of KSHV-associated cancer.

Application of the CDK9 inhibitor FIT-039 for the treatment of KSHV-associated malignancy

open access: yesBMC Cancer, 2023
Chronic infection with Kaposi’s sarcoma-associated herpes virus (KSHV) in B lymphocytes causes primary effusion lymphoma (PEL), the most aggressive form of KSHV-related cancer, which is resistant to conventional chemotherapy.

KSHV Induction of Angiogenic and Lymphangiogenic Phenotypes [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2012
Kaposi's sarcoma (KS) 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 spindle cells of all KS tumors.

Prevalence and predictors of kaposi sarcoma herpes virus seropositivity: a cross-sectional analysis of HIV-infected adults initiating ART in Johannesburg, South Africa

open access: yesInfectious Agents and Cancer, 2011
Background Kaposi sarcoma (KS) is the most common AIDS-defining tumour in HIV-infected individuals in Africa. Kaposi sarcoma herpes virus (KSHV) infection precedes development of KS.

RNA Sequencing Reveals that Kaposi Sarcoma-Associated Herpesvirus Infection Mimics Hypoxia Gene Expression Signature.

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2017
Kaposi sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) causes several tumors and hyperproliferative disorders. Hypoxia and hypoxia-inducible factors (HIFs) activate latent and lytic KSHV genes, and several KSHV proteins increase the cellular levels of HIF.

Metabolic reprogramming of Kaposi's sarcoma associated herpes virus infected B-cells in hypoxia. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2018
Kaposi's sarcoma associated herpesvirus (KSHV) infection stabilizes hypoxia inducible factors (HIFs). The interaction between KSHV encoded factors and HIFs plays a critical role in KSHV latency, reactivation and associated disease phenotypes.

RIG-I like receptor sensing of host RNAs facilitates the cell-intrinsic immune response to KSHV infection

open access: yesNature Communications, 2018
The RIG-I like receptors (RLRs) RIG-I and MDA5 are cytosolic RNA helicases best characterized as restriction factors for RNA viruses. However, evidence suggests RLRs participate in innate immune recognition of other pathogens, including DNA viruses ...

Towards Better Understanding of KSHV Life Cycle: from Transcription and Posttranscriptional Regulations to Pathogenesis

open access: yesVirologica Sinica, 2019
Kaposi’s sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV), also known as human herpesvirus-8 (HHV-8), is etiologically linked to the development of Kaposi’s sarcoma, primary effusion lymphoma, and multicentric Castleman’s disease.

Clinical Manifestations of Kaposi Sarcoma Herpesvirus Lytic Activation: Multicentric Castleman Disease (KSHV–MCD) and the KSHV Inflammatory Cytokine Syndrome

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2012
Soon after the discovery of Kaposi sarcoma (KS)-associated herpesvirus (KSHV), it was appreciated that this virus was associated with most cases of multicentric Castleman disease (MCD) arising in patients infected with human immunodeficiency virus.
