Nasopharyngeal carcinomas (NPC) is highly induced by Epstein-Barr virus (EBV). EBV infection encoded latent membrane protein 1 (LMP1) is expressed in latent stage II and III of EBV infection nasopharyngeal cells. LMP1 was reported to be associated with increased tumorigenesis, through the activation of nuclear factor-£eB (NF-£eB). In this study, LMP1 overexpressing NPC cell line (TW04) was used for assays of cell proliferation, apoptosis and migration under drug (Sodium Salicylate, Cisplatin and 5-Fluorouracil) treatment. Sodium Salicylate is one of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory (NSAID) drug, which inhibits the downstream of NF-£eB pathway, e.g., COX-1. Cisplatin and 5-Fluorouracil are traditional chemotherapy durgs used in many cancers. Our result shows that overexpression of LMP1 affects cell proliferation, apoptosis , invasion and migration ability. It indicates that LMP1-overexpression is an important marker for NPC therapy.
