“…Cultured T cells transformed by HVS show modified expression of cytokines and other ARE-containing genes, including IL-2, IL-3, gamma interferon, TNF-␣, TNF-, and a homolog of 39,74). Thus, it has been proposed that the ARE-containing HSURs compete with less abundant host mRNAs for host cell ARE-binding proteins in latently infected, transformed T cells (26,58).…”
