Stelios Tzellos Co-Authors Research on EBV Transcriptional Activation and CXCR7 Expression
LONDON, UK, 15th January 2026, ZEX PR WIRE, Stelios Tzellos, Ph.D., is the co-author of multiple peer-reviewed research studies focused on gene regulation by the Epstein-Barr virus (EBV), particularly the molecular differences between EBV type 1 and type 2 strains. His contributions to the field of viral oncology and transcriptional regulation were developed during his doctoral training at Imperial College London, where he earned a Ph.D. in Molecular Biology following undergraduate and master’s degrees in Biochemistry.
His work has been published in journals such as the Journal of General Virology, where he is listed as first author on the 2014 study titled “EBV EBNA-2 type 1 and type 2 proteins induce expression of the cellular CXCR7 and EBI2 genes through a mechanism involving a common m...
