Paul Lambert has received international recognition for his many contributions to understanding the role of HPV in cancer, ...

Future Microbiology Instigation of Notch Signaling in the Pathogenesis of Kaposi's Sarcoma-associated Herpesvirus and Other Human Tumor Viruses ...

Immunohistochemical staining for the antigen of Kaposi sarcoma (KS)–associated herpesvirus, latency-associated nuclear antigen (LANA), is helpful in diagnosing KS. A challenge lies in distinguishing ...

The new research will focus on the role of LANA during infection by the gamma herpesvirus, known as Kaposi sarcoma-associated herpesvirus. (KSHV).

Kaposi sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) alternates between latent and lytic phases, leading to varying levels of viral shedding in saliva. While some individuals show little to no shedding, ...

Drs. Andrew McGuire (left), Jim Boonyaratanakornkit (middle) and Warren Phipps (right) will combine their expertise to learn more about how our immune systems respond to the cancer-causing virus ...

So which viruses can cause cancer, and how do they do it? There are at least seven viruses that are known to contribute to ...

The Kaposi sarcoma-associated herpes virus (KSHV) was discovered in 1994 and is associated with Kaposi’s sarcoma as well as B-cell cancers. KSHV-associated diseases affect internal organs and ...

In high-risk groups, Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) can trigger aggressive cancers. Research has shown how KSHV drives cell metabolism and proliferation. Inhibiting this process can ...

The main cause of Kaposi sarcomas is the human herpesvirus 8 (HHV8), also known as Kaposi’s sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV).
