We constructed an EBV-positive NPC cell model using C666-1 cells and performed transcriptomics studies after treatment with curcumol, which revealed a significant enrichment of ubiquitin-mediated proteolysis, the PI3K-AKT and mTOR signaling pathways, cell cycle and apoptosis involved in tumor invasion and migration. The gene discussed is MTOR; the disease is nasopharyngeal carcinoma.
