TL;DR: To facilitate the analysis of hundreds of spoligotypes each made up of a binary succession of 43 bits of information, a number of major and minor visual rules were also defined to define 36 major clades (or families) of M. tuberculosis.

TL;DR: This global distribution was defined by data-mining of an international spoligotyping database, SpolDB3, which contains 11,708 patterns from as many clinical isolates originating from more than 90 countries.
Journal ArticleDOI
Monoclonality or oligoclonality of human herpesvirus 8 terminal repeat sequences in Kaposi's sarcoma and other diseases.
Jean-Gabriel Judde,Vincent Lacoste,Josette Brière,Eric Kassa-Kelembho,E. Clyti,Pierre Couppié,Carmen Buchrieser,Micheline Tulliez,Jacques Morvan,Antoine Gessain +9 more
TL;DR: The finding that nodular KS lesions display all possible patterns of clonality supports the model according to which KS begins as a polyclonal disease with subsequent evolution to a monoclonal process, suggesting that HHV8 infection precedes tumor growth and thus supporting an etiologic role of latentHHV8 in these proliferations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Evidence for a Multiclonal Origin of Multicentric Advanced Lesions of Kaposi Sarcoma
Renan Duprez,Vincent Lacoste,Josette Brière,Pierre Couppié,Camille Francès,Dominique Sainte-Marie,Eric Kassa-Kelembho,Marie-Jeanne Lando,Jean-Louis Essame Oyono,Blaise Nkegoum,Oumkaltoum Hbid,Antoine Mahé,Céleste Lebbé,Patricia Tortevoye,Michel Huerre,Antoine Gessain +15 more
TL;DR: The results suggest that KS lesions, especially in patients with advanced skin tumors, are reactive proliferations rather than true malignancies with metastatic dissemination.
Journal ArticleDOI
Molecular epidemiology of human herpesvirus 8 in africa: both B and A5 K1 genotypes, as well as the M and P genotypes of K14.1/K15 loci, are frequent and widespread.
Vincent Lacoste,Jean-Gabriel Judde,Josette Brière,Micheline Tulliez,Benoit Garin,Eric Kassa-Kelembho,Jacques Morvan,Pierre Couppié,E. Clyti,Jeronimo Forteza Vila,Bernard Rio,Alain Delmer,Philippe Mauclère,Antoine Gessain +13 more
TL;DR: Analysis of 52 new HHV8 strains by sequencing the complete hypervariable K1 gene and genotyping the K14.1/K15 loci revealed an overall predominance of P subtype, except in the A5 and B K1 groups, in which the P and M alleles were equally represented.
