miR155HG is significantly up-regulated in EBV-transformed lymphocytes

How to understand miR155HG is significantly up-regulated in EBV-transformed lymphocytes?

Thanks.

Solved: EBV modulates host miR-155 expression, which is essential for the growth of EBV-infected B cells. EBV-infected cells have increased expression of miR-155 thereby disturbing the equilibrium of expression for genes regulating transcription in those cells
