Abstract:
In this issue of Cell Host & Microbe, Chang and Ganem (2013) report that Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus infection of lymphatic endothelial cells (LECs), but not blood endothelial cells (BECs), activates mTORC1 signaling and sensitizes LECs to rapamycin-induced killing. The differential rapamycin sensitivity is explained by a unique LEC-specific virus latency program.
