In addition, LMP1 induces angiogenic factors such as the vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) through the induction of cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) [10], [11] and the JAK3/STAT signaling pathway [9], [12], thereby promoting invasion and metastasis of NPC cells. Here, PDLIM7 is linked to nasopharyngeal carcinoma.
