Plasma cytokines and chemokines detection
KSHV PCR-detection in tissues compartments of KS patients
Common KS lesions at ORCI – Tanzania (IRB approval and patient consent was obtained)
• Kaposi’s sarcoma (KS) is a multifocal angio-proliferative tumor with mucocutaneous and visceral involvement. Kaposi’s sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) is the etiologic agent.
• HIV-1/AIDS associated/epidemic (EpKS) and the African endemic (EnKS) are common in sub-Saharan Africa.
• KSHV infection is ~60% in US HIV-1+ individuals and other high-risk groups • There is no vaccine or curative treatment for KS.
• The high KS incidence in HIV-1 positive individuals and transplant recipients on immunosuppressive drugs, points to immune dysfunction as underlying KS development.
• The role of HIV-1 in KS tumorigenesis is unclear, and mechanisms driving EnKSare poorly understood.
Study subjects (N=131)
To compare humoral immune responses and tumor gene expression profiles between EpKS and EnKS patients in order to reveal unique pathways of viral neoplasia and better define the role of HIV-1 co-infection.
Background Antibody/Cytokines responses
Conclusions
Goal
Acknowledgments
• KSHV PCR using tumor biopsy is the most reliable method for detection of KSHV DNA. Variable detection in other compartments.
• Similar anti-KSHV antibody responses between EnKS and EpKS despite HIV-1 co-infection in EpKS patients.
• Cytokines dyregulation is similar in EnKS and EpKS despite HIV-1 co-infection.• EnKS is similar to EpKS at the transcriptomic level.• Treatment of HIV-1 infection with ART does not alter the KS transcriptome profile.• KSHV expression (load) had substantial impact on the cellular transcriptome
profile. • KS is primarily a KSHV disease and HIV-1 exacerbates KSHV pathogenesis.
Future directions• Cell-mediated responses to specific viral peptides are being assessed.• Longitudinal immune responses are being quantified in correlation with KS-
specific and HIV-1 treatment outcomes.
• All study participants and clinical team members.• Contributing members of Wood/West lab.• This project is supported by NIH/NCI (RO1 CA75903 and U54 CA190155), FIC (D43
TW010354) and NIGMS (P30 GM103509).

• Latency and immunomodulatory KSHV genes are highly expressed in KS tumors.
• KS tumors overexpress IFN-associated chemokines.
• Altered glucose and lipid metabolism in KS.
