BACKGROUND: Endemic Kaposi's sarcoma (KS) is a clinically and epidemiologically distinct human immunodeficiency virus negative form of KS occurring in Africa. Kaposi's sarcoma is now the most frequently reported cancer in some areas of Africa. OBJECTIVE:

Molecular Biology of Kaposi's Sarcoma-associated Herpesvirus and Related Oncogenesis
Kaposi's sarcoma herpesvirus (KSHV), also known as human herpesvirus 8 (HHV-8), is the most recently identified human tumor virus, and is associated with the pathogenesis of Kaposi's sarcoma and two lymphoproliferative disorders known to occur frequently

Modulation of the immune system by Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus.
The most recently identified human herpesvirus is Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV). It causes Kaposi's sarcoma, a tumour occurring most commonly in untreated AIDS patients and the leading cancer of men in certain parts of Africa. KSHV might

Mechanisms of Kaposi's Sarcoma-Associated Herpesvirus Latency and Reactivation [PDF]
The life cycle of Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) consists of latent and lytic replication phases. During latent infection, only a limited number of KSHV genes are expressed.
