Compared to uninfected cancers, the infected cancers had significant upregulation of nine cellular factors (FCER2, MS4A1 (CD20), PLUNC, TNFSF9, TRAF1, CXCL11, IFITM1, PPARG, and FCRL3), implying that EBV is not an innocent bystander with respect to biochemical impact. This evidence concerns the gene MS4A1 and cancer.
