J Virol . 2012 Apr; 86(13):7158-66. PMID: 22532676
Endothelial cells (EC) can present antigen to either CD8(+) T lymphocytes through constitutively expressed major histocompatibility complex class I (MHC-I) or CD4(+) T lymphocytes through gamma interferon (IFN-γ)-induced MHC-II. Kaposi's...

J Gen Virol . 2011 Jun; 92(Pt 10):2394-2398. PMID: 21697347
Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) encodes four viral interferon regulatory factors (vIRF-1-4). We investigated the mechanism and consequences of vIRF-2-mediated inhibition of interferon-response element signalling following type I interferon (IFN) induction....

J Med Primatol . 2003 Jan; 31(6):323-9. PMID: 12519210
Immunization using genetic expression libraries may be an improvement over conventional DNA immunization using a single gene because more epitopes are simultaneously presented to the immune system. In this study,...

AIDS . 2000 Jul; 14(9):1123-33. PMID: 10894276
Design: A selection of primary and transformed cell types were evaluated for their susceptibility to infection with human herpesvirus 8 (HHV-8)/Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus. Methods: Sources of HHV-8 included Kaposi's sarcoma...
