Abstract excerpt
The Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) is prevalent in nasal and peripheral T-cell lymphoma (NPTL) in Taiwan, where nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) is endemic. In order to understand the pathogenesis of these two malignancies in this endemic area, genomic analysis of EBV in NPTL with comparison to NPC is important. We investigated the EBV subtype (types A and B), BamH-I "f" variant, and the Xho-I site mutant of the latent...
