“…Epstein-Barr virus infection, tumor suppressors, oncogenes and environmental factors are associated with the tumorigenesis of NPC, but the molecular mechanism of its pathogenesis remains to be completely clarified [3]. Though enhanced susceptibility to radiotherapy and excellent local control can be achieved with advances in radiotherapy and chemotherapy, the effectiveness of these treatments requires further improvements, especially with distant metastasis rates and high local recurrence rates [4]. In fact, 30% ~ 40% of NPC patients will develop distant metastasis within 4 years, and the prognoses become poor upon metastasis [5].…”

“…Epstein-Barr virus infection, tumor suppressors, oncogenes, and environmental factors are related to the occurrence of NPC, but the molecular mechanism of its pathogenesis remains to be fully clarified [2]. Although the sensitivity to radiotherapy and good local control can be enhanced with the constant development of chemoradiotherapy, the effectiveness of these treatments needs to be further improved; in particular, the distant metastasis and local recurrence rates stay at high levels [3]. It is reported that 30-40% of NPC patients will have distant metastasis within 4 years, followed by worse prognosis [4].…”

“…Although the radiotherapy can control early stage of NPC, tumor recurrence and distant metastasis are the key difficulties of NPC therapy 4, 5, 6, 7. At present, NPC tumorigenesis and progression are thought to be multistep processes involving multiple genetic and epigenetic changes 8, 9, 10, 11.…”
