Fig 2: The CCR2 and Epstein?Barr virus (EBV) genes, EBNA2 and LMP1, mRNA expression in the isogenic BL cell lines, Mutu and Jijoye, with the EBV latency I and III programs. The CCR2, EBNA2, and LMP1 mRNA expression levels were normalized to the house-keeping gene TBP mRNA expression level for each sample and the ratio values are shown. LCL-1y is a LCL cell line included as a positive control. Mutu 30 (-) is the EBV-negative Mutu 30 cell line. Error bars show SD.

Fig 3: The CCR2B ORF (A) and CCR5 (B) transcripts in the BL cell lines with latency III were detected by RT-duplex-PCR. BL cell lines with latency III: Mutu III, Mutu cl.99, and Jijoye P79; BL cell lines with latency I: Mutu cl.148 and Jijoye M13; Mutu 30, the EBV-negative BL cell line.
