Cyprinid herpesvirus 3 (CyHV-3) is the causative agent of an extremely contagious and aggressive disease afflicting common corp Cyprinus carpio L. termed koi herpesvirus disease (KHVD). Since it was first reported in 1997, the virus has spread worldwide rapidly, leading to enormous financial losses in industries based on common carp and koi carp. This review summarizes recent advances in CyHV-3 research on the etiology, epidemiology, pathogenesis, diagnosis, prevention, and control of KHVD.

The precise etiology of hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS) is unknown. However, it has been associated with bacterial (Shigella, Salmonella, E. coli, S. pneumoniae), Bartonella, and viral (coxsackie, ECHO, influenza, varicella. Epstein-Barr) infections and with endotoxemia. Recently, we experienced a case of HUS in a 16-year-old boy who was in the acute phase of an Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infection. He had typical manifestations of HUS and EBV infection. He also transiently presented disseminated intravascular coagulation. His renal dysfunction recovered by supportive care, including hemodialysis, plasmapheresis, antihypertensive medication and aspirin. We present this case with a review of the literature as the second report of HUS associated with EBV infection.

5.Kaposi Sarcoma Herpes Virus-associated Hemophagocytic Syndrome Complicated by Multicentric Castleman Disease and Kaposi Sarcoma in a HIV-negative Immunocompetent Patient: An Autopsy Case.

Kaposi sarcoma herpes virus (KSHV), also known as human herpesvirus-8, plays an important role in the pathogenesis of Kaposi sarcoma (KS), multicentric Castleman disease (MCD) of the plasma cell type, and primary effusion lymphoma. KSHV is rarely associated with the hemophagocytic syndrome (HPS), but when it does occur, it most occurs in immunocompromised patients. We report herein an unusual case of KSHV-associated HPS in an immunocompetent patient. A previously healthy 62-yr-old male was referred for evaluation of leukocytopenia and multiple lymphadenopathies. After a lymph node biopsy, he was diagnosed with MCD of the plasma cell type. KSHV DNA was detected in the lymph node tissue by polymerase chain reaction. Following a short-term response of the leukocytopenia to prednisolone, mental change, left side weakness, fever, thrombocytopenia, hemolytic anemia, and renal failure developed. Despite intravenous immunoglobulin therapy and plasmapheresis, he expired. The lymph nodes were infiltrated by hemophagocytic histiocytes in the sinuses. Pulmonary nodules and gastric erosions were shown to be KS. KSHV DNA was detected in the stomach, lung, and liver. This is the first case of multiple KSHV associated diseases including MCD and KS with KSHV-associated hemophagocytic syndrome in an HIV-negative, non-transplant, immunocompetent patient.

6.Optimization of in situ hybridization assay using non-radioactive DNA probes for the detection of canine herpesvirus (CHV) in paraffin-embedded sections.
Journal of Veterinary Science 2004;5(1):71-73
Two non-radioactive probes using digoxigenin or biotin were developed for detecting canine herpesvirus (CHV) and compared for their sensitivities by in situ hybridization (ISH) in formalin fixed, paraffin embedded sections, which has been used routinely in veterinary fields. Sections of the CHV-infected cell preparation were subjected to several different ISH protocols using digoxigenin- or biotin-labeled probe respectively. Results were compared for the hybridization and background signal intensities. The best result was obtained by the optimized ISH protocol using digoxigenin-labeled probe for detection of CHV DNA. The optimized ISH assay, which developed in this study, may be a valid tool for the study of pathogenesis and diagnosis of CHV infection.
