Kaposi's Sarcoma Herpesvirus microRNAs Target Caspase 3 and Regulate Apoptosis
Kaposi's sarcoma herpesvirus (KSHV) encodes a cluster of twelve micro (mi)RNAs, which are abundantly expressed during both latent and lytic infection. Previous studies reported that KSHV is able to inhibit apoptosis during latent infection; we thus tested the involvement of viral miRNAs in this process. We found that both HEK293 epithelial cells and DG75 cells stably expressing KSHV miRNAs were...
متن کاملHepatic manifestations of Epstein-Barr viral infection.
UNLABELLED Little information exists in the international scientific or medical literature about the hepatic manifestations and complications of Epstein-Barr virus (EBV). The aim of this study was to describe a series of patients with hepatic manifestations of EBV infection. Our sample population was a series of patients whose hepatic dysfunction was correlated with a documented EBV infection. ...
متن کاملReplication of Epstein-Barr viral DNA.
Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) is a paradigm for human tumor viruses: it is the first virus recognized to cause cancer in people; it causes both lymphomas and carcinomas; yet these tumors arise infrequently given that most people in the world are infected with the virus. EBV is maintained extrachromosomally in infected normal and tumor cells. Eighty-four percent of these viral plasmids replicate each...
متن کاملThe oncogenic role of Epstein–Barr virus‐encoded microRNAs in Epstein–Barr virus‐associated gastric carcinoma
Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infection is detected in various epithelial malignancies, such as nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) and gastric cancer (GC). EBV comprises some unique molecular features and encodes viral genes and microRNAs (miRNAs) by its own DNA sequence. EBV genes are required to maintain latency and contribute to oncogenic property. miRNAs encoded by EBV have been shown to contribute ...
متن کاملThe Epstein-Barr virus miR-BHRF1 microRNAs regulate viral gene expression in cis.
The Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) miR-BHRF1 microRNA (miRNA) cluster has been shown to facilitate B-cell transformation and promote the rapid growth of the resultant lymphoblastoid cell lines (LCLs). However, we find that expression of physiological levels of the miR-BHRF1 miRNAs in LCLs transformed with a miR-BHRF1 null mutant (∆123) fails to increase their growth rate. We demonstrate that the pri-...
