Expression of human herpesvirus 6B (HHV-6B) and HHV-7 antigens in serial sections of Kaposi sarcoma specimens. Panels A-C: In Kaposi sarcoma environment, cells can be doubly infected by HHV-6B and HHV-7: (A) Staining with monoclonal antibody 5E1 to HHV-7-specific antigen pp85; (B) Staining with monoclonal antibody to HHV-6B-specific antigen p101; (C) Overlaid serial sections show colocalization of HHV-6B and HHV-7 (71).
