Description

Qing Xiao and co-authors study how Epstein-Barr virus infection shapes Burkitt lymphoma at the genetic, transcriptomic, and immune levels. Their 2025 paper deals with a highly aggressive B-cell lymphoma whose course is closely tied to virus status.

Targeted sequencing of a large gene panel covered 27 cases, and RNA analyses covered 25. Virus-negative tumors had more chromosomal amplifications at several sites, and novel variants in one gene in adults. Virus-positive tumors were enriched for mutations in a different gene. More than sixteen hundred genes differed in expression between the groups, mostly in key growth pathways. The landscape differs sharply by virus status.
