Expression profile of microRNAs in Epstein-Barr virus-infected AGS gastric carcinoma cells.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Latent infection with Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) is responsible for multiple types of malignancies, including 10% of all gastric carcinomas. The microRNA (miRNA) expression in several EBV-infected AGS gastric carcinoma cell lines was determined. Infected cells expressed the viral BamHI A rightward transcript (BART) miRNAs at high levels and had consistently decreased expression of a small fraction of cellular miRNAs with specific downregulation of tumor suppressor miRNAs. These changes likely reflect expression of the viral noncoding RNAs and not latent protein expression.

Association between Epstein-Barr virus infection and chemoresistance to docetaxel in gastric carcinoma.
Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) is associated with human cancers such as nasopharyngeal carcinoma, Burkitt's lymphoma, Hodgkin's disease, and gastric carcinoma (GC). EBV is associated with about 10% of all GC cases globally. EBV-associated GC has distinct features from EBV-negative GC. However, it is still unclear if EBV infection has any effect on GC chemoresistance. Cell proliferation assay, cell cy...

Recombinant Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) with a selectable marker successfully infected the human gastric carcinoma cell lines AGS, MKN28, and MKN74. Following incubation in selective media, drug-resistant cell clones were isolated and proved to be infected with EBV. All gastric carcinoma cell clones were positive for EBNA 1 but negative for EBNA 2. LMP 1 expression was negative in most clones, but...

UNLABELLED Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) is one of the major oncogenic viruses and is found in nearly 10% of gastric carcinomas. EBV is known to encode its own microRNAs (miRNAs); however, their roles have not been fully investigated. The present report is the largest series to comprehensively profile the expression of 44 known EBV miRNAs in tissue samples from patients with EBV-associated gastric c...

The Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) is transmitted from host-to-host via saliva and is associated with epithelial malignancies including nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) and some forms of gastric carcinoma (GC). Nevertheless, EBV does not transform epithelial cells in vitro where it is rapidly lost from infected primary epithelial cells or epithelial tumor cells. Long-term infection by EBV, however, can...
