| triplex gene dosage effect of tpi and g3pd in a human lymphoblastoid cell line with partial trisomy 12p13 and 18p. | the ebv-induced lymphoblastoid line established from a patient carrying a duplication of the distal part of chromosome 12 short arm (12p13) retained the original partial trisomy and displayed the same triplex gene dosage effect for tpi and g3pd as found in the patient's rbc and wbc. | 1979 | 223966 |
| simultaneous presence of ebna-positive and colony-forming cells in peripheral blood of patients with infectious mononucleosis. | ebna-positive lymphoblast cells were detected in 0.1 to 0.9% of the t-cell-depleted lymphocytes obtained from peripheral blood samples of five patients with infectious mononucleosis (im). the same blood specimens from four of the five patients contained cells that formed ebna-positive colonies in soft agar containing ebv antibodies. the ratio of the colony formers to ebna-positive cells was higher in blood samples taken early in the disease than in those obtained in later stages of the disease. ... | 1979 | 223990 |
| relationship between the epstein-barr virus genome and nasopharyngeal carcinoma in caucasian patients. | in order to explore whether undifferentiated nasopharyngeal carcinoma (npc) shows a regular association with epstein-barr virus (ebv), regardless of the geographical and ethnic origin of the patient, a correlated histopathological and nucleic acid hybridization study was performed on biopsies from caucasian patients with nasopharyngeal carcinomas and from various controls. among 12 undifferentiated npcs, 11 were positive for ebv-dna, with multiple copies of the viral genome per cell. serological ... | 1979 | 223991 |
| light and electron microscopic investigations of nasopharyngeal carcinomas with regard to the viral etiology of these tumors. | five carcinomata of the nasopharynx (four lymphoepithelial carcinomata of the regaud type and one squamous cell carcinoma) were examined light and electron microscopically. in addition to the familiar histological and cytological features of these tumors, and because of an increased antibody titer against epstein-barr virus in all five patients, all those cytoplasmic and nuclear inclusions were examined which could be interpreted as indicative of a virus contact. the following structures were fo ... | 1979 | 224065 |

| ebv-specific humoral antibodies in nasopharyngeal carcinoma patients in cuba. | sera of 24 patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma (npc) and of 60 healthy donors were studied for presence of igg and iga antibodies against different antigens induced by epstein--barr virus (ebv). the results obtained demonstrate that npc in cuba, as in other countries, is accompanied by elevated antibody titers against ebv-specific igg antibodies, whose levels strongly differ from those of healthy persons. patients with npc in cuba had higher titers of antibody against vca of ebv in comparison ... | 1979 | 224330 |
