Abstract:
AIM: To explore the effect of EBV infection on growth and apoptosis of nasopharyngeal carcinoma(NPC) cell line.METHODS: NPC cell line CNE1 was directly infected by Epstein Barr virus (EBV). The expression of EBV-latent membrane protein 1 (EBV-LMP1) and bcl-2 were detected by immunohistochemistry method (LSAB). The growth of NPC cells was identified by MTT method. Apoptotic carcinoma cells were detected by flow cytometry analysis and the terminal deoxynucletidyl transferase-medicated dUTP-biotin nick end labeling (TUNEL) methods. RESULTS: EBV-LMP1 was positive in CNE1 infected by EBV(E-CNE1). Compared with CEN1, the growth of E-CNE1 apparently increased ( P
