Large-scale hypomethylated blocks associated with Epstein-Barr virus-induced B-cell immortalization.
Altered DNA methylation occurs ubiquitously in human cancer from the earliest measurable stages. A cogent approach to understanding the mechanism and timing of altered DNA methylation is to analyze it in the context of carcinogenesis by a defined agent. Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) is a human oncogenic herpesvirus associated with lymphoma and nasopharyngeal carcinoma, but also used commonly in the ...
متن کاملTHE IN VITRO GROWTH PROPERTIES OF CELL LINES FROM EPSTEIN-BARR VIRUS-INDUCED TAMARIN TUMORS AND TAMARIN B CELLS TR ANSFORMED BY EPSTEIN BARR VIRUS
EBV-carrying human cell lines, depending on whether the cells are derived from Burkitt's lymphoma (BL) tumor biopsies or transformed by EBV in vitro, have different growth properties in vitro. In contrast, there are no clear differences between tamarin tumor lines and tamarin LCLs in vitro. Both types of tamarin cell lines could grow in agarose and formed colonies unlike human LCLs, althoug...
متن کاملEpstein-Barr virus immortalization and latency.
Epstein-Barr virus infects human B lymphocytes. The interaction between the virus and these cells has been the subject of investigation for over three decades. Recent in vitro and in vivo studies, reviewed here, are revealing the mechanisms by which EBV induces and controls proliferation through the expression of six viral nuclear proteins and two plasma membrane proteins. This genetic program ...
متن کاملmicroRNA profiling in Epstein–Barr virus-associated B-cell lymphoma
The Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) is an oncogenic human Herpes virus found in ∼15% of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). EBV encodes miRNAs and induces changes in the cellular miRNA profile of infected cells. MiRNAs are small, non-coding RNAs of ∼19-26 nt which suppress protein synthesis by inducing translational arrest or mRNA degradation. Here, we report a comprehensive miRNA-profiling study a...
متن کاملContributions of the EBNA1 Protein of Epstein-Barr Virus Toward B-Cell Immortalization and Lymphomagenesis
Epstein-Barr Virus (EBV) is a human herpesvirus, infecting 95% of humans, that is causally associated with the benign B-cell proliferative disorder, infectious mononucleosis. EBV has also been etiologically associated with several cancers, such as Burkitt's lymphoma, AIDSrelated immunoblastic lymphomas, post-transplant lymphomas, nasopharyngeal carcinoma, and gastric carcinoma. Very few viral g...
