The Kaposi's Sarcoma–Associated Herpesvirus G Protein–Coupled Receptor as a Therapeutic Target for the Treatment of Kaposi's Sarcoma
1 Jan 2006
Abstract excerpt
The Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) encodes a G protein-coupled receptor (vGPCR) that has been implicated in the initiation of Kaposi's sarcoma, identifying vGPCR as an attractive target for preventing Kaposi's sarcoma. However, as only a fraction of cells in advanced Kaposi's sarcoma lesions express vGPCR, it is unclear whether this unique viral oncogene contributes to Kaposi's sarcoma...
