However, new research conducted by Sun Yat-sen University, located in south China's Guangdong Province, has uncovered that a protein called R9AP serves as a common receptor allowing EBV to infect both ...

Smoking, alcohol consumption and betel nut chewing are some of the lifestyle factors that have been linked to head and neck ...

A novel immuno-PET/CT imaging technique has identified and validated a potent biomarker for nasopharyngeal cancer (NPC). The biomarker, CD70, is highly and constantly expressed in NPCs, and ...

A 34-year-old man was admitted to the hospital because of left ear pain with hearing loss and facial droop on the left side. Computed tomography showed a nasopharyngeal mass. A diagnosis was made.

The AK105-304 trial (NCT04974398) included 291 adults with recurrent nasopharyngeal carcinoma or metastatic nasopharyngeal carcinoma who had not previously received systemic treatment. 1.

Epstein–Barr virus plays a pivotal role in the pathogenesis of nasopharyngeal carcinoma, particularly in endemic regions. Elevated circulating EBV DNA levels are believed to reflect higher tumor ...

1 Introduction. Gammaherpesviruses are known to establish lifelong latent infections in their hosts and can systemically enhance immune surveillance not only through antigen-specific responses but ...

AbstractThe three-dimensional (3D) chromatin structure of Epstein–Barr virus (EBV) within host cells and the underlying mechanisms of chromatin interaction and gene regulation, ... (Fig. EV3A,B), a ...

Background: Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) related nasopharyngeal cancer (NPC) is endemic in Southern China and Southeast Asia. Limited studies of tumor-immune microenvironment (TIME) modulated by dual ...

Background: Discordance between Epstein-Barr virus-encoded small RNA (EBER) and Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) DNA status has been observed in certain NPC patients. We aimed to elucidate the prognostic ...
