MMP1 and TGFBR2 were identified as EMT-related biomarkers that mediated immune evasion and metastasis in NPC. Dexamethasone may target these genes, offering a novel therapeutic strategy for NPC.
Notably, EBV-human fusion events were prevalent in EBV-associated NPCs, including intriguing fusion transcripts such as LRRC8C-RPMS1 and LINC00486-RPMS1, which provide further evidence of the oncogenic potential of EBV integration. Taken together, this study uncovers EBV integration patterns in Nasopharyngeal carcinogenesis using long-read sequencing technology.
Clinically, high PPP2R2C expression correlated with poor patient survival. These findings establish that PPP2R2C promotes NPC radioresistance by stabilizing RPS27L to inhibit ferroptosis, positioning the PPP2R2C-RPS27L axis as a novel prognostic biomarker and therapeutic target for overcoming radioresistance.
