Abstract
Kaposi's sarcoma is a mesenchymal tumor that is frequently observed in AIDS patients. Although the tumor is clearly associated with HIV-1 infection, little is known about the molecular events underlying its pathogenesis. Here we consider the potential roles of specific cytokines and the virally encoded tat product in inducing the tumor.
