Epstein-Barr virus regulates STAT1 through latent membrane protein 1.
This study shows a mechanism for the increase of signal transducer and activator of transcription 1 (STAT1) in Epstein-Barr virus-immortalized cells. Latent membrane protein 1 (LMP-1) expression was sufficient to induce STAT1 expression, DNA binding, and transcriptional activity. LMP-1-expressing cells can induce an increase in STAT1 expression in LMP-negative cells in the same culture, suggest...
متن کاملInduction of apoptosis in epithelial cells by Epstein-Barr virus latent membrane protein 1.
Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) induces human B cell transformation and is closely associated with nasopharyngeal carcinoma. The expression of an EBV latent membrane protein, LMP-1, protects B cells from apoptosis by up-regulating the expression of a cellular oncogene, bcl-2. LMP-1 also transforms rodent fibroblasts and affects the differentiation, morphology and growth of human and rodent epithelial ...
متن کاملRole of Epstein-Barr virus encoded latent membrane protein 1 in the carcinogenesis of nasopharyngeal carcinoma.
Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)-encoded latent membrane protein 1 (LMP1) has been known to have oncogenic properties during latent infection in nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC). Our studies focused on the role of LMP1 in NPC, and showed that LMP1 triggers the NF-kappaB, AP-1 and STAT signaling pathways. Strikingly, LMP1 was found to mediate the formation of a new heterodimer between c-Jun and JunB. Also...
متن کاملEpstein-Barr virus latent membrane protein 2A activates beta-catenin signaling in epithelial cells.
The Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) latent membrane protein 2A (LMP2A) functions to maintain latency in EBV-infected B lymphocytes. Although LMP2A is nonessential for the immortalization of B lymphocytes by EBV, its expression in B lymphocytes prevents viral reactivation by blocking B-cell receptor activation and signaling. LMP2A also provides an antiapoptotic signal in transgenic mice that express LM...
متن کاملThe Epstein-Barr virus latent membrane protein 1 induces expression of the epidermal growth factor receptor.
The Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)-encoded LMP1 protein is an important component of the process of transformation by EBV. LMP1 is essential for transformation of B lymphocytes, most likely because of its profound effects on cellular gene expression. Although LMP1 is expressed in the majority of nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) tumors, the effect of LMP1 on cellular gene expression and its contribution...
