1 May 2001
Abstract excerpt
The presence of human herpesvirus-8 DNA sequences, as well as an overexpression of human interleukin-6 and human cyclin D1 in myofibroblastic cells of inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor (inflammatory pseudotumor), has recently been reported. We describe the pattern of human herpesvirus-8 gene expression in five cases of pulmonary inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor. Reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction...
