Abstract:Latent membrane protein 1 (LMP1) is known as an oncoprotein in nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) cells, which is considered to have a strong association with growth, invasion and metastasis of NPC cells through lipid rafts. Methyl-[Formula: see text]-cyclodextrin (M[Formula: see text]CD) can disrupt lipid rafts through cholesterol depletion. In this study, we revealed that M[Formula: see text]CD induced apoptosis in two kinds of NPC cells including CNE1 cells, a LMP1-negative nasopharyngeal squamous carcinoma cel… Show more
