Raf and VEGF: emerging therapeutic targets in Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus infection and angiogenesis in hematopoietic and nonhematopoietic tumors.

Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) is etiologically associated with several cancers including Kaposi's sarcoma (KS), primary effusion lymphoma, and multicentric Castleman's disease. KSHV-mediated pathogenesis is dependent mainly on KSHV infection as well as on the microenvironment provided by the growth factors (GFs)/inflammatory cytokines (ICs). Recently, we determined that oncoprotein Raf enhances KSHV infection of target cells. Interestingly, Raf regulates the expression of a variety of GFs/ICs including those involved in angiogenesis such as vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF). In this review, we discuss the effect of the Raf-GF/IC autocrine/paracrine loop on KSHV infection of both hematopoietic and nonhematopietic cells, and associated disease conditions.
