Kaposi sarcoma-associated herpesvirus/human herpesvirus 8 is associated with multicentric Castleman disease (MCD) and primary effusion lymphoma (PEL). In MCD, infected B cells, although polyclonal, express a monotypic immunoglobulin Mλ phenotype, probably through editing toward λ light chain in mature B cells. They are considered to originate from pre-germinal center (GC) naive B cells. Both viral and human interleukin-6 contribute to the plasmacytic differentiation of these cells, and viral replication can be observed in some infected cells. PEL cells are clonal B cells considered as GC/post-GC B cells. One can also hypothesize that they originate from the same infected naive B cells and that additional factors could be responsible for their peculiar phenotype.

D012514	Sarcoma, Kaposi	A multicentric, malignant neoplastic vascular proliferation characterized by the development of bluish-red cutaneous nodules, usually on the lower extremities, most often on the toes or feet, and slowly increasing in size and number and spreading to more proximal areas. The tumors have endothelium-lined channels and vascular spaces admixed with variably sized aggregates of spindle-shaped cells, and often remain confined to the skin and subcutaneous tissue, but widespread visceral involvement may occur. Kaposi's sarcoma occurs spontaneously in Jewish and Italian males in Europe and the United States. An aggressive variant in young children is endemic in some areas of Africa. A third form occurs in about 0.04% of kidney transplant patients. There is also a high incidence in AIDS patients. (From Dorland, 27th ed & Holland et al., Cancer Medicine, 3d ed, pp2105-7) HHV-8 is the suspected cause.
