Bleomycin induced EBV-specific gastric epithelial cell death is enhanced by LMP2A

A. P. Wai, A. F. Wadi, Y. Liu, T. Zolzaya, S. Okada, H. Iizasa, H. Yoshiyama

This study shows that bleomycin induces apoptosis in EBV-infected gastric epithelial cells via a DNA damage response, and LMP2A enhances this effect by promoting DDR.
