Regulation of TGFβ and BMP signalling in human B cells by latent Epstein-Barr virus
2014-01-01
Abstract excerpt
Most individuals are infected with EBV, which establishes latent infection in B cells. Although usually asymptomatic, EBV persistence is associated with several types of lymphoma. TGFβ signals via TGFβ receptors (TGFβR) 1 and 2 and is generally pro-apoptotic and anti-proliferative, but EBV infection renders cells resistant to these effects. The aim of this thesis was to investigate further the mechanism by which t...
