In the present study, we assessed the mRNA expression levels of all known inflammatory chemokine receptors, CCR1, CCR2, CCR3, and CCR5, in 13 BL cell lines with different expression patterns of the EBV latent genes EBNA2, LMP1, LMP2A, and LMP2B in comparison with LCLs. This evidence concerns the gene CCR5 and Burkitt lymphoma.
