13. First survey for detecting the presence of human herpesvirus 8 infection (HHV-8) in Maputo, Mozambique
Human herpesvirus 8 (HHV-8), the etiological agent of Kaposi's sarcoma (KS), is endemic in parts of the sub-Saharan, and KS has increased concomitantly with the HIV/AIDS epidemic. In Mozambique (MZ), no data concerning HHV-8 infection was available, thus the main of this work was to investigate, for the first time, the presence of HHV-8 infection in Maputo,

Human herpes virus type 8 (HHV-8) is hyperendemic in Amerindian populations, but its modes of transmission are unknown. Objectives: 1. Study the Human Herpesvirus-8 Infection and Oral Shedding in Amerindian and Non-Amerindian Populations in the Brazilian Amazon Region. 2. Methods: Antibodies against either HHV-8 latency-associated nuclear antigen (LANA) or H

15. Estudo epidemiológico da infecção por herpesvírus 8 humano (HHV-8) em população indígena da Amazônia brasileira / Epidemiological study of Human herpesvirus 8 infection (HHV-8) in the Amerindian population from Brazilian Amazon
The human herpesvirus 8 (HHV-8) is endemic in Africa and Amerindian populations from Amazon region. The infection in those populations occurs during childhood and, in Africa, involves a close contact in intrafamilial environment. Several studies confirm the geographical distribution of different subtypes of HHV-8, and the subtype E is typical of the Amerindi

16. (High Human Herpesvirus 8 (HHV-8) Prevalence, Clinical Correlates and High Incidence among Recently HIV-1-Infected Subjects in Sao Paulo, Brazil / Prevalência e correlações clínicas da infecção pelo herpesvírus humano tipo 8 em indivíduos recém-infectados pelo HIV.
A infecção pelo herpesvírus humano tipo 8 (HHV-8) e suas correlações clínicas não foram até o presente bem caracterizadas em indivíduos recém-infectados pelo HIV. Esse estudo avalia a prevalência e correlações clínicas da infecção pelo HHV-8 em uma coorte de 228 indivíduos recém-infectados pelo HIV (vírus da imunodeficiência humana), alé

17. Molecular diagnostic of active human cytomegalovirus infection in patient urdergoing transplanation by nested polymerase chain reaction : comparison between peripheral blood leucocytes and serum / Diagnostico molecular da infecção ativa por citomegalovirus humano (HCMV) em pacientes submetidos a transplante pela reação em cadeia da polimerase (tipo "Nested PCR") : comparação entre leucocitos do sangue periferico e soro
The Human Cytomegalovirus (HCMV) is the main cause of post-transplant complications. Specific methods that allow to identify early patients with risk of developing disease for which treatment is indicated, have been required so that few patients are treated unnecessarily and for the effective therapeutic institution. The "Nested-PCR" has been commonly used i

18. Burkitt lymphoma: clinicopathologic, immunohistochemical and association with Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) in adult and pediatric population in different geographical regions of Brazil / Linfoma de Burkitt: características clinicopatológicas, imunoistoquímicas e associação com o vírus de Epstein-Barr (EBV) em populações adulta e pediátrica em diferentes regiões geográficas no Brasil
Burkitt lymphoma (BL) is a high grade B cell lymphoma with a consistent translocation involving the proto-oncogene C-MYC. The association with the Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) varies depending on the clinicopathological form. This study aims to analyze the clinicopathologic, immunohistochemical features, including the expression of transcription factor MUM1/IRF4

19. Prevalência de anticorpos anti-herpesvírus humano tipo 8 (HHV-8) em soros de pacientes com insuficiência renal crônica / Prevalence of human herpesvirus-8 (HHV-8) antibodies in serum samples from patients with chronic kidney disease
Human herpesvirus 8 (HHV-8) infection is frequently associated with Kaposis sarcoma (KS) in immunodeficient and renal transplanted patients. The HHV-8 seroprevalence in healthy populations varies from 1% to 8%. The present study aimed to determine the HHV-8 seroprevalence and antibodies titers in chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients with or without substitu

20. Detection of human herpesvirus 5 and 6 in liver transplant patients / Detecção do DNA viral dos herpesvirus 5 e 6 em biopsias hepaticas de transplantados de figado
Cytomegalovirus (CMV), Human Herpesvirus-6 (HHV-6), belong to the ß-herpesvirus subfamily. These viruses can be reactivated from latency during immunosuppression. period especially after liver transplantation, CMV has been the most important opportunistc infection that negatively influences the outcome of patients. HHV-6 is a lymphotropic virus, but it may

21. Avaliação da resposta tecidual "in situ" do fenótipo, da expressão de HHV-8/LANA e de citocinas em lesões cutâneas de sarcoma de Kaposi clássico e sarcoma de Kaposi associado à AIDS na era pré e pós-terapia anti-retroviral combinada / Evaluation of tissue response "in situ" of the phenotype, expression of HHV-8/LANA and cytokines in cutaneous lesions of classic Kaposi sarcoma and AIDS associated Kaposi sarcoma in the pre-and post- highly active antiretroviral therapy era
Kaposis sarcoma (KS) is a vascular-originated tumor associated to human herpesvirus 8 (HHV-8). The incidence of AIDS-KS has decreased after the advent of highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART), without studies regarding cutaneous inflammatory response and HHV-8 expression in pre- and post-HAART era. We used immunohistochemistry to characterize and to q

22. Detecção e quantificação do virus Epstein-Barr pela reação em cadeia da polimerase em tempo real (real time PCR) em pacientes transplantados de celulas hematopoeticas e coinfecção com o citomegalovirus / Detection and quantification of Epstein-Barr virus by real time polymerase chain reaction in hematopoietic stem cell transplantation patients and coinfection with cytomegalovirus
O Vírus Epstein-Barr (EBV) e o Citomegalovírus (HCMV) são membros da família Herpesvírus. São encontrados em aproximadamente 90% dos indivíduos em idade adulta. A infecção ocorre, geralmente, na infância e é assintomática na maioria dos casos, persistindo de forma latente durante toda a vida do indivíduo. A transmissão destes vírus ocorre prin

23. Latent human herpesvirus - 8 (HHV-8) infection in female commercial sex workers from Imbituba, Santa Catarina, Brazil
Human herpesvirus 8 (HHV-8) infection was identified in 6 out of 90 (6.7%) female commercial sex workers from Imbituba, Santa Catarina, and was associated to age. Frequencies of 5.6% of anti-latent and 3.3% of anti-lytic antibodies were detected. Considering non-endemic areas from Brazil, the anti-latent antibodies frequency seems elevated and requires furth

The prototype member of the Betaherpesvirus subfamily, human cytomegalovirus (HCMV), is the most important infectious pathogen in transplant recipients, including those receiving bone marrow (BM) or stem cell (SC) grafts. Rapid diagnostic tests to identify active CMV infection, and pre-emptive therapy are significant improvements in the management of CMV. Tw
