<?php
$string = "The Publisher: Abhijeet here > hello how are you.";
$pices = explode("Publisher:", $string);
echo $pices[0]; // prints : The Publisher
echo $pices[1]; // prints : Abhijeet here > hello how are you.
$pices1 = explode(">", $pices[1]); 
echo $pices1[0]; // prints : Abhijeet here
$newstring = "Publisher:John here>";
$combine = "$pices[0].$newstring.$pices1[1]";
echo $combine; // The Publisher: John here > hello how are you.

Then you can replace text
