Inhibitory KIR2DL2 Receptor and HHV-8 in Classic or Endemic Kaposi Sarcoma

2022-01-06

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p>KIR2DL2, an inhibitory Killer cell Immunoglobulin-like Receptor (KIR), has been shown to predispose to the development of several herpesvirus-associated diseases by inhibiting the efficiency of Natural Killer (NK) cells against virus-infected cells. The aim of this observational study was to assess the prevalence of KIR2DL2 and Human Herpes Virus 8 (HHV8) in patients affected with class...
