Abstract
Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)-encoded latent genes are reported to regulate PD-L1 expression to promote immune escape. Here, the authors show that EBV-encoded miRNAs EBV-miR-BART11 and EBV-miR-BART17-3p upregulate PD-L1 expression in nasopharyngeal carcinoma and gastric cancer by targeting FOXP1 and PBRM1.
