The response of Kaposi's sarcoma (KS)-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) to inflammatory cytokine treatment of experimentally infected endothelial cells was investigated. The cytokines inhibited spontaneous KSHV lytic gene expression but not the level of infection. The data suggest that if inflammatory cytokines present in KS lesions contribute to KSHV pathogenesis, they do so in part by promoting latent KSHV infection of the endothelial cells.
