Fulminant anaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALCL) concomitant with primary cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection, and human herpes virus 8 (HHV-8) infection together with Epstein-Barr-virus (EBV) reactivation in a patient with asymptomatic HIV-infection

Abstract: BackgroundMost malignant lymphomas in HIV-patients are caused by reactivation of EBV-infection. Some lymphomas have a very rapid fulminant course. HHV-8 has also been reported to be a cause of lymphoma. The role of CMV in the development of lymphoma is not clear, though both CMV and HHV-8 have been reported in tissues adjacent to the tumour in Burkitt lymphoma patients. Here we present a patient with asymptomatic HIV infection, that contracted a primary cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection and human herpes virus 8 … Show more

“…Many viruses such as HBV, HIV, CMV and HHV have been observed to generate Lnc RNAs to affect transcription, antiviral responses, RNA stability, metabolism and viral pathogenesis in host cells. 82 In addition, it has been shown viral proteins deregulate host cell Lnc RNAs in response to viral replication or antiviral response. 83 Hepatitis B and C can cause acute or chronic infection in the liver which could be followed by cirrhosis, liver failure and eventually hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in some cases with chronic infection.…”
