Fig 1: Type 1 and Type 2 EBV both inhibit methylcellulose-induced NOKs differentiation.Uninfected, Akata EBV-infected, or AG876 EBV-infected NOKs (each in the context of the “NOKs-2” line) were differentiated in 1.6% methylcellulose containing KSFM medium without supplements for 24 hours. Following differentiation, the cells were harvested and immunoblot analysis was then performed to assess expression levels of LMP1, K-10, Involucrin, GHRL3, ZNF750, KLF4, TGM1, SPRR1A and tubulin (loading control) as indicated.
