Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) is one of the most pervasive viruses worldwide, and EBV infection is inextricably linked to a multitude of lymphoid and epithelial neoplasms. EBV is responsible for the advancement of malignant disease by modifying the tumor microenvironment (TME), which is a sophisticated and evolving system that facilitates tumor growth, invasion, and metastasis. EBV infection has a profound impact on the cellular and noncellular components that constitute the TME. Our review presents a summary of the composition of the EBV-remodeled TME, with a particular focus on EBV-induced functional phenotypes in non-tumor cells. Furthermore, we discuss the potential for reversing EBV-driven TME remodeling as a therapeutic strategy for treating the malignancies associated with EBV infection.
爱泼斯坦-巴尔病毒(EBV)是全球最普遍的病毒之一,EBV感染与多种淋巴样和上皮性肿瘤密切相关。EBV通过改变肿瘤微环境(TME)推动恶性疾病的进展,肿瘤微环境是一个复杂且不断演变的系统,促进肿瘤生长、侵袭和转移。EBV感染对构成TME的细胞和非细胞成分有深远影响。我们的综述总结了EBV重塑的TME的组成,特别关注EBV在非肿瘤细胞中诱导的功能表型。此外,我们讨论了逆转EBV驱动的TME重塑作为治疗与EBV感染相关恶性肿瘤的治疗策略的潜力。
