Sixty two genes potentially trans-regulated by the lncRNAs such as CD44 (Hyaluronan/CD44 signaling plays an important role in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma progression) and interleukin 1 receptor associated kinase 1 (IRAK1) are involved in the EBV infection pathway [13]. The gene discussed is IRAK1; the disease is Epstein-Barr virus infection.
