摘要：
Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus has been detected in every Kaposi's sarcoma biopsy, yet nobody knows how the virus contributes to the tumour-cell formation that is associated with the disease. The key, it now seems, may lie with the so-called G-protein-coupled receptor. This protein is encoded by the virus, and it induces the production of a powerful factor that stimulates the formation of blood vessels to nourish the tumour cells.
