Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: To study the evolution of Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) or human herpesvirus type 8 in Europe and Africa. DESIGN AND METHODS: PCR and sequence analysis of the variable viral membrane glycoprotein gene K1 in 58 tumour and peripheral blood samples from patients with AIDS-related Kaposi's sarcoma (KS), 'classic' (HIV-negative) KS, transplant KS, Multicentric Castleman's Disease, other...
