| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Nasal natural killer/T cell lymphoma (NNKTL) is Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)-associated malignancy and characterized by a poor prognosis. In the present study, microarray analysis showed that ebv-miR-BART22 was highly expressed in NNKL cell lines. We found that ebv-miR-BART22 could regulate PCDC4 expression. Moreover, we showed that knockdown of ebv-miR-BAR22 induced apoptosis in NNKTL cells. These data suggest that ebv-miR-BART22 implicates in cell proliferation regulating PDCD4 expression in NNKTL.
