The Epstein-Barr virus encoded LMP1 oncoprotein modulates cell adhesion via regulation of activin A/TGFβ and β1 integrin signalling by Mhairi Morris, Christopher W. Dawson, Louise Laverick, Alexandra M. Davis, Joe P. Dudman, Sathuwarman Raveenthiraraj, Zeeshan Ahmad, Lee-Fah Yap, Lawrence S. Young

“…Latent membrane protein 1 (LMP1), the major oncoprotein encoded by EBV, behaves as a constitutively active tumour necrosis factor (TNF) receptor activating a variety of signalling pathways, including the three classic MAPKs (ERK-MAPK, p38 MAPK and JNK/SAPK). …”

Influence of CMV/EBV serostatus on respiratory infection incidence during 4 months of winter training in a student cohort of endurance athletes by Cheng-Shiun He, Michal K. Handzlik, Ayu S. Muhamad, Michael Gleeson

“…Moreover, we found that athletes with prior infection of both CMV and EBV (n = 50, 21 %) had 50 % fewer URTI episodes (p = 0.04) and symptom days (median 2 vs 8 days, p = 0.01) than athletes who were seronegative for both CMV and EBV (n = 31, 13 %). …”

Cancer-associated fibroblasts in undifferentiated nasopharyngeal carcinoma: a putative role for the EBV-encoded oncoprotein, LMP1 by Mhairi Morris

“…Undifferentiated nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) is 100% associated with Epstein–Barr virus (EBV) infection, and biopsies display variable levels of expression of the viral oncoprotein, latent membrane protein 1 (LMP1). …”

The EBV-encoded Oncoprotein, LMP1, recruits and transforms fibroblasts via an ERK-MAPK-dependent mechanism by Alexandra M Davis, Abigail Rapley, Christopher W Dawson, Lawrence S Young, Mhairi Morris

“…However, there is currently no evidence linking LMP1 expression and the presence of CAFs in NPC. In this study, we demonstrate the ability of LMP1 to recruit fibroblasts in vitro in an ERK-MAPK-dependent mechanism, along with enhanced viability, invasiveness and transformation to a myofibroblast-like phenotype. …”

The EBV-encoded oncoprotein, LMP1, induces an epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) via its CTAR1 domain through integrin-mediated ERK-MAPK signalling by Mhairi Morris, Louise Laverick, Wenbin Wei, Alexandra M. Davis, Samantha O'Neill, Liam Wood, Jack Wright, Christopher W. Dawson, Lawrence S. Young

“…The induction of the EMT phenotype required a functional CTAR1 domain of LMP1 and studies using pharmacological inhibitors revealed contributions from signalling pathways commonly induced by integrin-ligand interactions: extracellular signal-regulated kinases/mitogen-activated protein kinases (ERK-MAPK), PI3-Kinase and tyrosine kinases, but not transforming growth factor beta (TGF β). …”
