Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)-associated carcinomas, such as nasopharyngeal carcinoma
(NPC), exhibit an undifferentiated and metastatic phenotype. To determine viral
contributions involved in the invasive phenotype of EBV-associated carcinomas,
EBV-infected human telomerase-immortalized normal oral keratinocytes (NOK) were
investigated. EBV-infected NOK were previously shown to undergo epigenetic
reprogramming involving CpG island hypermethylation and delayed responsiveness to
differentiation. Here, we show that EBV-infected NOK acquired an invasive
phenotype that was epigenetically retained after viral loss. The transcription
factor lymphoid enhancer factor 1 (LEF1) and the secreted ligand WNT5A, expressed
in NPC, were increased in EBV-infected NOK with sustained expression for more
than 20 passages after viral loss. Increased LEF1 levels involved four LEF1
variants, and EBV-infected NOK showed a lack of responsiveness to ?-catenin
activation. Although forced expression of WNT5A and LEF1 enhanced the
invasiveness of parental NOK, LEF1 knockdown reversed the invasive phenotype of
EBV-infected NOK in the presence of WNT5A. Viral reprogramming of LEF1 and WNT5A
was observed several passages after EBV infection, suggesting that LEF1 and WNT5A
may provide a selective advantage to virally-infected cells. Our findings suggest
that EBV epigenetically reprogrammed epithelial cells with features of basal,
wound healing keratinocytes, with LEF1 contributing to the metastatic phenotype
of EBV-associated carcinomas.
