Epstein-Barr Virus_Encoded LMP1 Upregulates MicroRNA-21 to Promote the Resistance of Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma Cells to Cisplatin-Induced Apoptosis by Suppressing PDCD4 and Fas-L

Abstract excerpt

Approximately 30% of patients with Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)-positive advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) display chemoresistance to cisplatin-based regimens, but the underlying mechanisms are unclear. The Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)-encoded latent membrane protein 1 (LMP1), a functional homologue of the tumor necrosis factor receptor family, contributes substantially to the oncogenic potential of EBV through the...
