Further, a supervised analysis on another dataset where both EBV gene expression (Fig. 2k, left panel) and microarray human gene expression17 were available, revealed a positive correlation between viral LMP1 expression and tumor SSTR2 expression (Fig. 2k, middle panel), tumor NFκB1 expression and SSTR2 expression (Supplementary Fig. 5) and upregulation of viral biogenesis pathways in LMP1-expressing samples compared to non-LMP1-expressing samples (Fig. 2k, right panel). Here, SSTR2 is linked to neoplasm.
