| Abstract | Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) is the infectious cause of Kaposi's sarcoma, primary effusion lymphoma, and plasmablastic multicentric Castleman's disease. STAT3 has been shown to be important for the maintenance of primary effusion lymphoma cells in culture and is chronically activated in many tumor cell lines. However, little is known about the role of KSHV in the activation of STAT3 or the role of STAT3 in KS tumors. We demonstrate that STAT3 is activated by KSHV infection of endothelial cells, the KS tumor cell type, in a biphasic fashion. Viral binding and entry activate STAT3 in the first 2 h after infection, but this activation dissipates by 4 h postinfection. By 12 h after KSHV infection, concomitant with the expression of latent genes, STAT3 is once again activated, and this activation persists for as long as latent infection is maintained. Activated STAT3 translocates to the nucleus, where it can bind to STAT3-specific DNA elements and can activate STAT3-dependent promoter activity. Conditioned medium from KSHV-infected endothelial cells is able to transiently activate STAT3, indicating the involvement of a secreted factor and that a latency-associated factor in KSHV-infected cells is necessary for sustained activation. KSHV upregulates gp130 receptor expression, and both gp130 and JAK2 are required for the activation of STAT3. However, neither human nor viral interleukin-6 is required for STAT3 activation. Persistent activation of the oncogenic signal transducer, STAT3, by KSHV may play a critical role in the viral pathogenesis of Kaposi's sarcoma, as well as in primary effusion lymphomas. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
