| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
EBV-associated oncoprotein, LMP1, was not detected in nasopaheryngeal carcinoma (NPC) cell line, C666.1,-derived exosomes. In contrast, EBV-associated RNAs, such as EBERs and BART-miRNAs, was easily detected in the exosomes.
One of BART-miRNAs, miR-BART17-5p, was secreted in extra-ordinally pathway, but in exsosome-independent pathway. The miRNA would be expected as novel therapeutic target of NPC.
