Epstein-barr virus (EBV) is a well-known human oncogenic virus. However, its molecular mechanisms in the initiation and development of EBV-associated gastric cancer (EBVaGC) remain poorly understood. Latent membrane protein 2A (LMP2A) is an EBV latency-associated protein expressed in part of EBVaGC cases.
Relevance: Epstein-barr virus (EBV) is a well-known human oncogenic virus. However, its molecular mechanisms in the initiation and development of EBV-associated gastric cancer (EBVaGC) remain poorly understood. Latent membrane protein 2A (LMP2A) is an EBV latency-associated protein expressed in part of EBVaGC cases. This study analyzed the effect of LMP2A on the gene expression of gastric cancer cells by transcriptome sequencing on the gastric cancer cell line SGC7901 that expresses LMP2A.
