Contributions of the Epstein-Barr Virus EBNA1 Protein to Gastric Carcinoma

Abstract: Approximately 10% of gastric carcinomas (GC) are comprised of cells latently infected with Epstein-Barr virus (EBV); however, the mechanism by which EBV contributes to the development of this malignancy is unclear. We have investigated the cellular effects of the only EBV nuclear protein expressed in GC, EBNA1, focusing on promyelocytic leukemia (PML) nuclear bodies (NBs), which play important roles in apoptosis, p53 activation, and tumor suppression. AGS GC cells infected with EBV were found to contain fewer … Show more

“…The top four molecular and cellular functions enriched in this set of genes were cellular movement, cell-to-cell signaling and interaction, cell growth and proliferation, and cell death; each was highly significant with extremely low P values (Table 2). Interestingly, infection of AGS cells with EBV has been shown previously to increase cellular mobility (25), and expression of EBNA1 in AGS cells inhibits expression of promyelocytic leukemia nuclear bodies and reduces apoptosis in response to DNA damage (26). The IPA-identified categories reflect these known properties and are likely relevant to the growth in the soft agar phenotype presented here.…”

“…ND10 and its organizer PML have been a hot spot for viral oncogenic studies (57)(58)(59)(60)(61). As a tumor suppressor gene, PML deficiency and subsequent ND10 loss have been observed in many cancer types, including viral-infection-related cancers.…”

“…We have previously identified a mechanism by which the EpsteinBarr virus (EBV) protein EBNA1 induces loss of PML NBs and degradation of PML proteins in nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) and gastric carcinoma, two EBV-associated cancers (Sivachandran et al, 2012a(Sivachandran et al, , 2008(Sivachandran et al, , 2010. However, little is known about the cellular ubiquitin pathway proteins that regulate PML in these cells.…”
