Co-infection with HIV-1 and Kaposi’s sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) is the cause of ag-gressive AIDS-related Kaposi’s sarcoma (AIDS-KS) characterized by abnormal angiogenesis. The impact of HIV-1 and KSHV interaction on the pathogenesis and extensive angiogenesis of AIDS-KS remains un-clear. Here, we explored the synergistic effect of HIV-1 Tat and KSHV oncogene Orf-K1 on angiogenesis. Our results showed that soluble Tat or ectopic expression of Tat enhanced K1-induced cell proliferation, micro-tubule formation and angiogenesis in chorioallantoic membrane and nude mice models. Mechanistic stud-ies revealed that Tat promoted K1-induced angiogen-esis by enhancing NF-B signaling. Mechanistically
