Cytokine-Targeted Therapeutics for KSHV-Associated Disease
Kaposi’s sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) also known as human herpesvirus 8 (HHV-8), is linked to several human malignancies including Kaposi sarcoma (KS), primary effusion lymphoma (PEL), multicentric Castleman’s disease (MCD) and recently KSHV ...

The Role of Viruses in the Pathogenesis of Periodontitis
This narrative review aimed to summarize current evidence on the presence and potential pathogenic role of viruses in periodontitis. Design: Narrative Review; Population: Patients with periodontitis; Exposure: Detection of viruses in oral samples (biopsies, saliva, gingival crevicular fluid, subgingival plaque, blood); Outcome: Viral prevalence, load ...

miRNAs and their roles in KSHV pathogenesis
Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) is the etiological agent of Kaposi's sarcoma (KS), primary effusion lymphoma (PEL), and multicentric Castleman Disease (MCD). Recent mechanistic advances have discerned the importance of microRNAs in the virus-host relationship. KSHV has two modes of replication: lytic and latent phase.

Viruses, Periodontitis, and Systemic Diseases
This narrative review aimed to summarize current evidence on the viral involvement in periodontitis and its relevance for systemic diseases. The oral cavity acts as an active viral reservoir and dissemination platform, where virus–microbiome interactions may promote dysbiosis, periodontitis progression, and systemic inflammatory effects, while the ...

Kaposin-B enhances the PROX1 mRNA stability during lymphatic reprogramming of vascular endothelial cells by Kaposi's sarcoma herpes virus. [PDF]
Kaposi's sarcoma (KS) is the most common cancer among HIV-positive patients. Histogenetic origin of KS has long been elusive due to a mixed expression of both blood and lymphatic endothelial markers in KS tumor cells.

Identification of Target Genes Regulated by KSHV miRNAs in KSHV-Infected Lymphoma Cells
This study aimed to identify target genes regulated by KSHV miRNAs in KSHV-infected lymphoma cells. Original Ago HITS-CLIP data of BC-3 and BCBL-1 cell lines were downloaded from SRA database in NCBI, including mRNA and miRNA samples. The raw mRNA reads were mapped into human reference genome hg19 via TopHat for read alignment.

Persistence of Kaposi Sarcoma–Associated Herpesvirus (KSHV)–Infected Cells in KSHV/HIV‐1–Coinfected Subjects without KSHV‐Associated Diseases [PDF]
Inguinal lymph nodes from 24 human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) type 1-infected subjects without Kaposi sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV)-associated diseases were examined for KSHV infection. KSHV-infected cells were detected at a very low frequency in the lymph nodes of 7 subjects (median frequency, 2 infected cells/10(7) lymph node cells). Latent,

Among 135 cases of post‐liver transplant HHV8 disease (4 from NSW), presentations varied, and mortality was high (44%). Donor screening was rare, and donor‐derived infection was suspected in 33%. Survival improved with mTORi, reduced immunosuppression, chemotherapy, and, for non‐KS disease, donor screening. ABSTRACT Background Human herpesvirus 8 (HHV8)

This study identifies p300 as the acetyltransferase that acetylates TBK1 and inhibits its phosphorylation. Activation of the p53‐SIAH1 axis by immune response downregulates p300 expression to sustain innate antiviral immunity. Conditional p300 knockout in alveolar epithelial cells in vivo promotes antiviral responses and suppresses virus replication ...
