Figure 2 Schematic representation about infectious condition and pathogenicity of Epstein-Barr virus.
Direct cell-to-cell contact between B lymphocyte and gastric epithelial cell may perhaps be the most likely model to infect with Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) into epithelial cells in vivo (left). EBV infection induces extensive promoter methylation, which should contribute to tumorigenesis. H. pylori: Helicobacter pylori.
