Microsatellite instability in Epstein-Barr virus associated with nasopharyngeal carcinoma.
The result reported here represents the first human genomic screen for MSI in Epstein-Barr-Virus associated NPC. The analysis revealed the incidence of MSI only 1 of 23 cases (4%) which indicates that MSI is less common in NPC development.
