| the specificity of heterophil antibodies in patients and healthy donors with no or minimal signs of infectious mononucleosis. | over several years sera were collected from 14 heterophil-positive students or patients who did not fulfill minimal hematologic criteria for infectious mononucleosis (i.m.) the specificity of these heterophil reactions for i.m. was investigated by determining antibodies to epstein-barr virus-determined antigens, i.e., to viral capsid antigens (vca), early antigens (ea), and ebv-associated nuclear antigens (ebna). on the basis of detectable anti-ea and/or the early absence and late emergence of a ... | 1976 | 1126 |
| comparison between two antibody populations in the ebv system: anti-ma versus neutralizing antibody activity. | ebv-neutralizing antibody titers were determined in 11 sera derived from african burkitt lymphoma or nasopharyngeal carcinoma patients and in the corresponding serum fractions retained above xm 100 diaflo membranes after low ph treatment, and after recombination of the retained and passed fractions by neutralization of the acidified samples. they were compared with the corresponding antimembrane antigen (ma) titers in seven of the same sera. while all sera tested showed substantial increase of t ... | 1976 | 2559 |

| tumorigenicity of human hematopoietic cell lines in athymic nude mice. | human hematopoietic cell lines, which had been classified on the basis of studies on clonality, and morphological, chromosomal and functional parameters as lymphoblastoid cell lines (lcl) of presumed non-neoplastic origin, and lymphoma, myeloma and leukemia lines of proven malignant origin, were tested for tumorigenic potential on subcutaneous transplantation to nude mice and for capacity to grow in semi-solid medium in vitro. recently established lcl failed to grow both in nude mice and in agar ... | 1977 | 14896 |
| studies on epstein-barr virus-related antigens. ii. biochemical properties of soluble antigen in raji burkitt lymphoma cells. | biochemical properties of epstein-barr virus (ebv)-related soluble antigen in non-producer raji burkitt lymphoblastoid cells, assayed by the indirect single radial immunodiffusion (isrd) test, were investigated. the soluble isrd antigen retained activity even after exposure to a temperature of 80 degrees c. the antigen was precipitated in 40% saturated ammonium sulfate and isrd activity was recovered from the precipitate when reconstituted into a solution. isoelectric focusing and crossed immuno ... | 1977 | 14897 |
| appearance and some unusual features of epstein-barr virus antibody production in infectious mononucleosis and other health disorders. | the indirect immunofluorescence (if) test and the complement-fixation reaction (cfr) were used in examination of over 1500 sera obtained from patients with infectious mononucleosis (im) and other health disorders. the evidence obtained supports a direct aetiological relationship between epstein-barr virus (ebv) and im and points on a relationship of ebv to some other lymphadenopathies and health disorders. the incidence of the igg type antibody against virus capsid antigen (eb-vca) and soluble a ... | 1977 | 15437 |
| late persistence of serum gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase activity after mononucleosis. report of 3 cases. | gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase (ggtp) is a sensitive but nonspecific index hepatobiliary disease. in infectious mononucleosis (im) or the mononucleosis-like disease attributable to cytomegalovirus (cytomegalovirus-induced im), ggtp reverted to normal later than aspartate aminotransferase and alkaline phosphatase. in three cases elevated serum ggtp activity persisted for up to 24 months -- raising the question of persistent 'post-im' hepatitis. such prolonged ggtp activity was unusual in other lat ... | 1977 | 15921 |
| differential expression of d and r components of epstein-barr virus early antigen after superinfection and after induction with 5-iododeoxyuridine. | three non-productive human lymphoblastoid cell lines, nc-37, raji and l-1, either superinfected with epstein-barr (eb) virus from p3hr-1 cells or treated with 5-iododexyuridine (iudr), were studied for the development of early antigen (ea) of eb virus. in all three superinfected cell lines, both the restricted (r) and diffuse (d) componets of ea were synthesized, with r-component formation preceding d-component synthesis. after iudr treatment both components of ea were only formed in raji cells, ... | 1977 | 18915 |

| epstein-barr virus infection following bone-marrow transplantation. | a 12-year-old patient with acute lymphoblastic leukemia received a bone-marrow transplant (bmt) from a matched sibling donor. nine weeks prior to transplant the donor experienced epstein-barr virus (ebv)-induced infectious mononucleosis. the bone-marrow recipient was ebv-negative at the time of transplant; however, 4 weeks post transplant the recipient developed clinical symptoms of graft-verus-host disease (gvhd) coincident with serological evidence of acute ebv infection. in addition, a lympho ... | 1978 | 29839 |

| uv-inactivation of epstein-barr virus: differences in early antigen expression in two different non-productive cell lines and influence of caffeine. | two non-productive epstein-barr (eb) virus genome-carrying lymphoblastoid cell lines, namely raji and nc37, were used for studying the effect of uv irradiation on the ability of p3hr-1 eb virus to induce early antigen (ea) formation. in nc37 cells infected with uv-irradiated virus the formation of ea was delayed; thus the slope of inactivation curve based on the early (24 hr) reading was steeper than that based on the late (72 hr) reading. this was not observed in raji cells. caffeine did not in ... | 1978 | 30263 |
| intracranial heterotransplantation of human hematopoietic cells in nude mice. | a panel of established cell lines and many primary cell specimens from lymphomas and leukemias as well as from normal lymphatic tissues were tested for tumorigenicity by intracranial heterotransplantation in nude mice. not only lymphoma and leukemia cell lines, but also lymphoblastoid cell lines, lacking markers of malignancy, were tumorigenic in the brains of nude mice. these findings indicate that tumorigenicity following intracranial heterotransplantation in nude mice cannot be used as proof ... | 1979 | 38211 |
| epstein-barr virus infections in childhood. | igm and igg antibodies against epstein-barr virus (ebv) capsid antigen and antibodies against ebv nuclear antigen and heterophil antibodies were investigated in 115 paired sera of children with acute infections and in 100 sera of healthy controls of the same age and sex. ebv-specific igm antibodies could be recognized in 13.7% of the patients and in 7% of the controls. antibodies against ebv nuclear antigen were not detected in the igm-positive sera. | 1979 | 39436 |
| enhancement of epstein-barr virus antibody production in systemic lupus erythematosus patients. | two groups of 22 patients suffering from either systemic lupus erythematosus (sle) or infectious mononucleosis (im) were checked for epstein-barr virus capsid antigen antibody (eb-vca) production. the average significant antibody levels as well as the frequency of their occurrence were clearly higher in sle than in im patients. | 1979 | 39442 |
| abortive growth of human lymphocytes carrying a dormant epstein-barr viral genome. | when p3hr-1 lymphoblastoid cells expressing epstein-barr virus (ebv)-related antigens at very low frequency were cocultivated with human umbilical cord blood lymphocytes and the cell-free mixed culture fluid was applied to fresh cord lymphocytes, cells morphologically distinct from normal lymphocytes became evident after one to two weeks' exposure. the abnormal cells became abundant after one month and were easily identified by b-cell markers and a variety of morphologic abnormalities. such abno ... | 1978 | 45600 |
| blastogenic response and ebna induction in human lymphocytes by epstein-barr virus only requires b cells but not macrophages. | the postulated role of macrophages in the primary infection of human lymphocytes by epstein-barr virus (ebv) was examined. macrophage removal had no effect on the blastogenic response but slightly reduced the percentage of ebna-positive cells induced by the b 95-8 virus strain. both the rate of dna synthesis and the appearance of ebna-positive cells could rather be related to the number of b cells in the infected populations. macrophages are thus not required for the initiation of ebv-induced ly ... | 1977 | 45722 |

| epstein-barr virus-induced transformation of human leukocytes after cell fractionation. | the efficiency of transformation of human lymphocytes after infection with epstein-barr virus (ebv) was determined in fractionated and non-fractionated preparations derived from 16 human cord blood samples and two blood samples from adult donors. the transformation efficiency of macrophage-depleted leukocytes was consistently lower as compared to non-fractionated leukocytes. additional depletion of b-cells resulted in a further decrease. reduction of t-cells, however, did not influence significa ... | 1975 | 47842 |
| infectious mononucleosis: model for self-limiting lymphoproliferation. | evidence for the extensive lymphoproliferation which characterises infectious mononucleosis (i.m.) is summarised, and some of the mechanisms which are though to control lymphoproliferative activity in this disease are discussed. the main host responses which appear to limit lymphoproliferation in i.m. include the development of humoral antibodies against the epstein-barr (e.b.) virus-associated membrane antigen (present on the e.b. viral envelope and on e.b.-virus-infected cells) and cellular im ... | 1975 | 48066 |
| x-linked recessive progressive combined variable immunodeficiency (duncan's disease). | of 18 boys in duncan kindred, 6 died of a lymphoproliferative disease. they exhibited a subtle, progressive combined variable immunodeficiency disease characterised by benign or malignant proliferation of lymphocytes, histiocytosis, and alterations in concentrations of serum-immunoglobulins. infectious mononucleosis occurred during or preceding terminal events in at least 3 of the cousins. fever, pharyngitis, lymphadenomegaly, hepatosplenomegaly, atypical lymphocytosis, and a spectrum ranging fr ... | 1975 | 48119 |
| lymphoblastoid transformation and kinetics of appearance of viral nuclear antigen (ebna) in cord-blood lymphocytes infected by epstein-barr virus (ebv). | human cord-blood lymphocytes were infected with b95.8 epstein-barr virus (ebv) before and after separation into b- and t-cell populations. lymphoblastoid cells exhibiting b-cell characteristics appeared after 2 to 3 days of culture in the total population and in the separated b-cell subpopulation but not in the t-cell subpopulation. ebv nuclear antigen (ebna) was detected concurrently with the appearance of lymphoblastoid cells. the proportion of ebna-positive cells corresponded to that of lymph ... | 1975 | 49325 |

| mononucleosis-associated subacute sclerosing panencephalitis. | three cases of coincidental infectious mononucleosis (i.m.) and subacute sclerosing panencephalitis (s.s.p.e.) in children are reported. in two of the cases, i.m. preceded the appearance of s.s.p.e. symptoms. the other case of s.s.p.e. was associated with apparent mononucleosis encephalitis. all three patients died within 3 months of s.s.p.e. being diagnosed and had pathological changes characteristic of that disease and raised levels of measles antibody. two of the patients had apparent t-cell- ... | 1975 | 51346 |
| clinical and serological analysis of transfusion-associated hepatitis. | of 108 prospectively followed, multiply transfused, open-heart-surgery patients, 12 (11%) developed hepatitis. patients received only volunteer donor blood tested for hepatitis-b surface antigen (hbsag) prior to transfusion by counterelectrophoresis (c.e.p.). 4 of the 12 patients developed hepatitis-b-virus infection. subsequent testing of donor serums by solid-phase radioimmunoassay (r.i.a.) revealed that an r.i.a.-positive, c.e.p.-negative blood unit was transfused to 3 of the 4 type-b hepatit ... | 1975 | 53329 |

| ebv-determined nuclear antigen (ebna)-positive cells in the peripheral blood of infectious mononucleosis patients. | after removal of srbc rosette-forming t-cells from the peripheral blood, the residual, largely b-lymphocyte fraction of five infectious mononucleosis patients was found to contain 0.5-2% blast cells, positive for the ebv-determined nuclear antigen (ebna). there was a rough parallelism between the presence of large lymphoblasts in the hematological smear, ebns-positive large blasts in the b-cell fraction and the ability of the t-cell fraction to exert an ebv-specific lymphocytotoxicity on establi ... | 1976 | 55396 |
| persistence of epstein-barr viral nuclear antigen (ebna) in cells entering the eb viral cycle. | it was shown by double immunofluorescence studies that epstein-barr viral nuclear antigen (ebna) was preserved in ebv-infected cells after they had entered the productive viral cycle, as signalled by the appearance of the early antigen (ea)complex. a nuclear component of the ea comples could be clearly distinguished from ebna with regard to antigenic specificity. | 1976 | 55398 |
| lymphocyte transformation induced by autologous cells. iii. lymphoblast-induced lymphocyte to stimulation does not correlate with eb viral antigen expression or immunity. | human mitogen-induced and cell line b lymphoblasts stimulate the proliferation of allogeneic and autologous lymphocytes in culture. the role in thes reaction of eb viral determinants on the stimulating cells and immunity of the lymphocyte donor to the eb virus has been studied. the stimulatory capacity of cultured cell line lymphoblasts is not inhibited by incubating lymphoblasts with antisera to eb viral determinants. cultured cell line b lymphoblasts stimulate as much thymidine incorporation b ... | 1976 | 55437 |

| the absence of b-cell antigen b2 from leukaemia cells and lymphoblastoid cell lines. | 60 leukaemia patients with acute mylogenous leukaemia, chronic myelocytic leukaemia, acute lymphatic leukaemia, and chronic lymphocytic leukaemia were tested for five specificities of the new b-lymphocyte alloantigenic system. two specificities of the first b-cell locus were significantly lower in frequency than in b lymphocytes from 105 controls. b-cell group 1 was found in 18% of leukaemia patients vs. 48% of controls (p less than 0.025) and b-cell group 2 was found in 0% of leukaemia patients ... | 1976 | 59011 |
| somatic cell hybrids between human lymphoma lines. ii. spontaneous and induced patterns of the epstein-barr virus (ebv) cycle. | the regulation of spontaneous, iudr-induced and p3hr-1 virus-induced ea and vca production patterns was studied in two new somatic hybrids between human lymphoma lines. the hybrid 8a was derived from the crossing of the non-producer raji with the spontaneous producer daudi line. the second hybrid, 83, was produced by the fusion of raji with the ebv-genome-negative b-lymphoma line, bjab. the studies suggest the following ebv regulation patterns: (1) the spontaneous production of ea and vca appear ... | 1976 | 59708 |
| surface markers on human b and t lymphocytes. viii. association between complement and epstein-barr virus receptors on human lymphoid cells. | an association has been found between the epstein-barr virus (ebv) and complement (c3d) receptors on human lymphoid cells. the evidence was four-fold: there was a correlation between the expression of these two receptors; inhibition experiments showed that the binding sites probably are close to each other in the cell membrane, although not identical; ebv and complement receptors have been found to co-cap in either order; and lymphoid cell lines lacking complement receptors could not be superinf ... | 1976 | 59946 |

| pathogenesis and phenotypes of an x-linked recessive lymphoproliferative syndrome. | a new x-linked recessive lymphoproliferative syndrome has variable phenotypes: fatal infectious mononucleosis (i.m.), agammaglobulinaemia after i.m., american burkitt's lymphoma, histiocytic lymphoma, immunoblastic sarcoma of b cells, or plasmacytoma. an immunodeficiency to rubeola and the epstein-barr virus probably ensues from the mutant gene. the phenotypes (spectrum of b-cell disorders) have a common inheritance and the aetiology is similar. | 1976 | 62116 |
| subpopulations of human lymphoblastoid cell lines. correlation with the expression of surface receptors and content of epstein-barr virus genome. | forty lymphoblast cell lines derived from normal subjects, patients with infectious mononucleosis, leukemia, and burkitt's lymphoma have been studied for surface receptors including surface ig, complement receptors by the eac rosette and fluorescent (raji cell) techniques, and fc (aggregate) receptor by direct and indirect immunofluorescence. because of the b-cell tropism of the epstein-barr virus (ebv), an effort was made to correlate the expresion of various surface properties of lymphoblastoi ... | 1976 | 62390 |
| inducibility of the epstein-barr virus (ebv) cycle and surface marker properties of ebv-negative lymphoma lines and their in vitro ebv-converted sublines. | two ebv-negative lymphoma lines of human b-cell origin, bjab and ramos, were compared with altogether six of their in vitro ebv-converted, ebna- and ebv-dna-carrying sublines (four of ramos and two of bjab derivation). all converted lines closely resembled the parental line with regard to karyotype and hl-a and b antigen typing. induction of ebv antigens (ea and vca) by p3hr-1 virus superinfection was either similar in the converted and the negative lines, or somewhat increased in certain conver ... | 1976 | 62724 |

| is burkitt's lymphoma related to perinatal infection by epstein-barr virus? | burkitt's lymphoma (b.l.) is very restricted geographically, whereas the epstein-barr virus (e.b.v.), a very likely causal factor, exists all over the world. it is proposed that perinatal infection (either transplacental, or, more probably, neonatal) is an important risk factor for the development of b.l. this hypothesis arose when the epidemiological characteristics of e.b.v. infection were compared in different parts of the world and is supported by the preliminary results of a seroepidemiolog ... | 1977 | 64861 |

| comparative studies on ebv antigens by immunofluorescence and immunoperoxidase techniques. | three groups of ebv antigens, vca, ma and ea, were compared by the techniques of electron microscopic immunoperoxidase (ip) and immunofluorescence (if). p3hr-1 and ebv superinfected raji cells served as targets for labelled sera from patients with bl, npc and im or from healthy donors. 125i peroxidase-labelled antibodies were also prepared to determine, autoradiographically, the penetration of the complex into the cell system, and to monitor the incubation and washing procedures. the development ... | 1977 | 66208 |
| separation of the complement-fixing and early antigens from epstein-barr soluble antigen. | the epstein-barr virus-associated complement-fixing (soluble) antigen (cfsa) and the early antigen (ea) were isolated by ion-exchange chromatography from the p3hr-1 lymphoblastoid cell line activated with 5-iodo-2'-deoxyuridine for 72 hours. as expected, these two antigens were not immunologically identical. the cfsa, but not the ea, was isolated from the rajl lymphoblastoid cell line by the same method. | 1977 | 66320 |
| an immunofluorescence technique with counterstain on fixed cells for the detection of antibodies to human herpesviruses; antibody patterns in patients with hodgkin's disease and nasopharyngeal carcinoma. | an indirect immunofluorescence (if) test on fixed cells with evans' blue counterstain is described for all four human herpesviruses, i.e., herpes simplex virus type 1 and type 2 (hsv-1 and hsv-2), varicella-zoster virus (vzv), cytomegalovirus (cmv) and epstein-barr virus (ebv). comparison with immunodiffusion (id) for hsv-2 and with id and complement fixation (cf) for vzv and cmv demonstrated the specificity and high sensitivity of the if test. also introduced is a modification of the anti-compl ... | 1976 | 67099 |

| identification of a purified complement-fixing antigen as the epstein-barr-virus determined nuclear antigen (ebna) by its binding to metaphase chromosomes. | a soluble complement-fixing antigen carried by epstein-barr virus (ebv)-transformed human cells has been previously extracted from cell nuclei and purified by dna-cellulose chromatography [luka, j., siegert, w. & klein, g. (1977) j. virol., in press]. on addition of this antigen to methanol/acetic acid-fixed metaphase chrmosomes, followed by exposure to human sera containing antibodies against the ebv-determined nuclear antigen (ebna), brilliant positive staining was obtained by anti-complement ... | 1977 | 67603 |
| quantitation of beta2-microglobulin and hla on the surface of human cells. ii. in vitro cell lines and their hybrids. | beta2-microglobulin (beta2m) participates as an integral part in molecules of the major histocompatibility complex (mhc) type. absence of beta2m makes the residual heavy mhc chain largely inactive as antigen. striking reductions in the density per unit surface area of beta2m in seven out of nine malignant lymphoid tumour lines in comparison with normal lymphocytes or "immortalized" epstein-barr-virus-transformed lymphoblastoid lines were found is this study. this would seemingly represent a spec ... | 1977 | 67633 |

| observations on the antigenic relationships between epstein-barr virus and herpesvirus saimiri. | the antigenic relationships between epstein-barr (eb) virus and herpesvirus saimiri (hvs) have been investigated in comparative immunofluorescence, microimmunodiffusion and serum neutralization tests. no similarity was detected between the structural antigens of the two herpesviruses but the results of microimmunodiffusion tests showed that they shared a non-structural, virus-determined antigen. the implications of this finding are discussed in relation to the importance of hvs and its monkey ly ... | 1977 | 70507 |

| heterogeneity of epstein-barr virus. iv. induction of a specific antigen by ebv from two transformed marmoset cell lines in ramos cells. | infection of cells of the ebv-genome-negative human b-lymphoma ramos line with viral isolates obtained from two ebv-transformed marmoset cell lines (b95/8; nyevu) resulted in the induction of a nuclear antigen (ram-ag) apparently different from other ebv-associated antigen complexes. this antigen is revealed by indirect immunofluorescence and shows no detectable cross-antigenicity with ebna or any other known ebv-associated antigen. ebv-isolates from p3hr-1 cells fail to induce a similar antigen ... | 1978 | 81181 |
| cellular immunity in infectious mononucleosis. ii. specific reactivity to epstein-barr virus antigens and correlation with clinical and hematologic parameters. | infectious mononucleosis (im) patients, epstein-barr virus (ebv)-seropositive and seronegative healthy donors, and patients with other viral infections were tested for lymphocyte blastogenesis (lb) with phytohemagglutinin and six ebv (virus concentrate, culture supernatant, and soluble [s] antigen) or control antigens. fluorescent antibodies to ebv viral capsid antigen of igg, igm, iga specificities, to nuclear antigen (ebna), and heterophile antibodies were also assayed. these were correlated w ... | 1978 | 81224 |
| papain solubilization of the epstein-barr virus-induced membrane antigen. | the epstein-barr virus (ebv)-induced membrane antigen (ma) was successfully solubilized from the membranes of viable ebv-infected raji cells by treatment with papain (5 to 6 u per 1 x 10(7) to 2 x 10(7) cells). the loss of ma from viable cells was monitored by membrane immunofluorescence and antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity. soluble ma was demonstrated in papain digests through inhibition of antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity and by inhibition of the binding of anti-ma antibodies t ... | 1978 | 81320 |

| longitudinal study of epstein-barr virus antibody titers and excretion in pediatric patients with hodgkin's disease. | nineteen pediatric patients with hodgkin's disease (hd) who had experienced primary epstein-barr virus (ebv) before, or in one case after, diagnosis, were studied longitudinally for changes in the titers and spectra of ebv-related antibodies, excretion of ebv into the oropharynx, the number of ebv-carrying lymphoid cells in the peripheral blood, and clinical signs and symptoms suggestive of reactivation of the latent virus. the incidence and geometric mean titers of igg antibodies to viral capsi ... | 1978 | 82539 |
| study of epstein-barr virus-determined nuclear antigen (ebna) by chromatography on fixed cell nuclei. | low ionic strength (50 to 100 mm nacl) and ph 6.0 were found to be optimal conditions for in vitro conversion of epstein-barr virus (ebv)-determined nuclear antigen (ebna)-negative nuclei to ebna-positive nuclei by addition of the complement-fixing (cf) antigen extracted from raji cells. in vitro conversion of nuclei to ebna-positively was sensitive to dnase but not to rnase treatment. this suggests that nuclear dna is a specific target substance to which ebv-cf antigen binds. if nuclei were fix ... | 1978 | 82540 |
| somatic cell hybrids between human lymphoma cell lines. v. idurd inducibility and p3hr-1 superinfectability of daudi/hela (dad) and daudi/p3hr-1 (dip-1) cell lines. | we have studied two types of somatic cell hybrid with regard to expression of the epstein-barr virus (ebv) cycle and its regulation. the first, dip-1, a hybrid formed between two human lymphoma ebv producers (daudi and p3hr-1), contained ebv dna, expressed the virus-determined nuclear antigen (ebna), andwas a producer of the ebv-associated antigens ea (early antigen) and vca (viral capsid antigen). the second, dad, a hybrid series of clones formed between daudi and a hela cell derivative (d98), ... | 1978 | 82545 |
| studies on epstein-barr virus-related antigens. iii. purification of the virus-determined nuclear antigen (ebna) from non-producer raji cells. | the purification of epstein-barr virus-determined nuclear antigen (ebna) was attempted on the basis of its biochemical and physicochemical properties and its immunological specificity, assayed by the indirect single radial immunodiffusion test and anti-complement immunofluorescence absorption test. when non-producer raji cell extract was subjected to 20--60% saturated ammonium sulfate fractionation, followed by dna-cellulose chromatography and immunoadsorbent chromatography, ebna was purified mo ... | 1978 | 82547 |
| selective stimulation and differentiation of early antigens in lymphoblastoid cell lines producing epstein-barr-like viruses. | comparisons of early antigens (ea) of ebv-related lymphotropic herpes virus of old world primates have proved difficult to accomplish because antigen levels are low in infected cells and the ratio of virus capsid antigen to ea is generally high. to overcome these difficulties, we have developed a procedure which combines antigen stimulation with inhibition of late virus functions and results in the selective stimulation of ea. using this procedure, we have examined the ea of ebv, herpesvirus pap ... | 1978 | 82609 |
| the association between undifferentiated nasopharyngeal carcinoma and epstein-barr virus shown by correlated nucleic acid hybridization and histopathological studies. | all of 51 undifferentiated carcinomas of the nasopharynx were ebv-dna-positive and, in the few tests performed, ebna-positive as well. most of these patients also had high anti-ebv [vca and ea (d)] antibody titres. of four patients that had somewhat differentiated npcs, two were ebv-dna-positive with a corresponding serological picture, whereas two were negative with an ebv serology comparable to that of healthy donors. of seven lymphomas localized in the nasopharynx, one was ebv-dna-positive an ... | 1978 | 83285 |
