Kaposi Sarcoma (KS)–Associated Herpesvirus MicroRNA Sequence Analysis and KS Risk in a European AIDS‐KS Case Control Study
17 Aug 2010
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: We recently identified polymorphisms in Kaposi sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV)-encoded microRNA (miRNA) sequences from clinical subjects. Here, we examine whether any of these may contribute to KS risk in a European AIDS-KS case-control study. METHODS: KSHV load in peripheral blood was determined by real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction. Samples that had detectable viral loads were...
