## Background: Dna sequences of human herpesvirus-8 (hhv8) are found in lesions of kaposi's sarcoma (ks). ## Objectives: To verify the hypothesis of the sexual transmission of hhv8 infection. ## Methods: We used the immunoperoxidase assay to study the prevalence of serum antibodies to hhv8-rela
## Skin biopsy sections of Kaposi's sarcoma (KS) from 25 patients (5 AIDS-related, 20 classical cases) were histologically staged and hybridized in situ with oligonucleotide probes for constitutively transcribed human herpesvirus 8 (HHV-8) mRNA T0.7 and T1.1 using a colourimetric technique. T1.1 i
