Multi-Omics Exploration of the Mechanism of Curcumol to Reduce Invasion and Metastasis of Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma by Inhibiting NCL/EBNA1-Mediated UBE2C Upregulation.

ABSTRACT: Nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) is closely linked to Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infection. Curcumae Rhizoma, a traditional Chinese herb, has shown antitumor effects, primarily through its component curcumol (Cur), which has been shown to reduce NPC cell invasion and migration by targeting nucleolin (NCL) and Epstein-Barr Virus Nuclear Antigen 1 (EBNA1). We constructed an EBV-positive NPC cell model using C666-1 cells and performed transcriptomics studies after treatment with curcumol, which revealed a significant enrichment of ubiquitin-mediated proteolysis, the PI3K-AKT and mTOR signaling pathways, cell cycle and apoptosis involved in tumor invasion and migration. To investigate the importance of NCL and EBNA1 in curcumol-resistant EBV-positive NPC, we performed a multi-omics study us
