In vivo and in vitro study of co-expression of LMP1 and Cripto-1 in nasopharyngeal carcinoma.

Introduction: Nasopharyngeal carcinoma, an epithelial-derived malignant tumor which because of its anatomical location and atypical early symptoms, when diagnosed invasion and metastasis often have occurred. This requires a better understanding of the development mechanism, identifying diagnostic markers, and developing new treatment strategies.

Objective: To study the relationship of LMP1 and Cripto-1 in nasopharyngeal carcinoma.
