The Tumor Microenvironment02:17

The Tumor Microenvironment

7.9K
Every normal cell or tissue is embedded in a complex local environment called stroma, consisting of different cell types, a basal membrane, and blood vessels. As normal cells mutate and develop into cancer cells, their local environment also changes to allow cancer progression. The tumor microenvironment (TME) consists of a complex cellular matrix of stromal cells and the developing tumor. The cross-talk between cancer cells and surrounding stromal cells is critical to disrupt normal tissue...

Introduction to Virus

1.8K
Viruses are unique biological entities that blur the boundary between living and non-living systems. Although they lack cellular structure and metabolic processes, they can exhibit characteristics of life when infecting a host. Their defining feature is a nucleic acid core, composed of either DNA or RNA, encapsulated within a protein coat called a capsid. This simple structure allows them to invade host cells and use their machinery for replication efficiently.Viral Structure and...

Viruses of Archaea

525
Archaeal viruses play a crucial role in the ecosystems of extremophilic archaea, particularly those belonging to the phyla Euryarchaeota and Crenarchaeota. By shaping host evolution and facilitating gene transfer, these viruses influence microbial communities and contribute to genetic diversity in extreme environments. The archaea they infect thrive in acidic hot springs and hydrothermal vents characterized by high temperatures and low pH. Archaeal viruses exhibit remarkable structural...

Viruses with RNA Genomes01:29

Viruses with RNA Genomes

952
RNA viruses are categorized into positive-strand, negative-strand, or double-stranded groups based on their genomic structure and replication mechanisms. This classification dictates how they exploit host cellular machinery for protein synthesis and replication. Some RNA viruses also utilize reverse transcription as part of their life cycle, further diversifying their replication strategies.Positive-Strand RNA VirusesPositive-strand RNA viruses have genomes that function directly as messenger...

Intracellular Movement of Viruses and Bacteria

3.6K
Intracellular bacteria and viruses often comprise a group of highly infectious pathogens that can cause several diseases. Bacterial pathogens include those belonging to the genus Rickettsia responsible for conditions such as rocky mountain spotted fever and the Mediterranean spotted fever; Chlamydia, a genus responsible for a sexually transmitted disease; Coxiella burnetii, an agent responsible for Q fever. Viral pathogens include vaccinia—a poxvirus, and herpes simplex virus—a...

Area of Science:

  • Oncology
  • Virology
  • Immunology

Background:

  • Epstein–Barr virus (EBV) is linked to various cancers.
  • EBV infection shapes a unique tumor microenvironment (TME).
  • Latent EBV-infected cells actively modify the TME.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review the TME's composition in EBV-associated malignancies.
  • To describe immune escape mechanisms employed by EBV-infected cells.
  • To discuss tumor-promoting properties of the TME.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review focusing on EBV-associated cancers.
  • Analysis of TME composition and immune cell infiltration.
  • Examination of viral and host genetic factors.

Main Results:

  • EBV-infected tumor cells actively shape the TME.
  • Specific immune escape strategies are utilized by EBV.
  • The TME contributes to tumor progression in EBV+ cancers.

Conclusions:

  • Understanding EBV-driven TME modulation is crucial for cancer therapy.
  • Genetic factors influence susceptibility to EBV-associated malignancies.
  • Targeting the TME offers potential therapeutic avenues.
