| immune surveillance against virus-induced tumors and nonrejectability of spontaneous tumors: contrasting consequences of host versus tumor evolution. | spontaneous tumours are defined as tumors that develop in the absence of all experimental interference. in contrast to the widely documented, strong rejection reactions against most virus-induced tumors, spontaneous tumors evoke little or no detectable rejection reaction in intact or preimmunized syngeneic hosts. the difference can be viewed in relation to the contrasting natural history of the two conditions. spontaneous tumors evolve in several steps, as a fule. "tumor progression" is a microe ... | 1977 | 194247 |
| rejectability of virus-induced tumors and nonrejectability of spontaneous tumors: a lesson in contrasts. | in contrast to the excellent surveillance against tumors induced by the ubiquitous viruses in their natural host species, spontaneous tumors developing naturally, without experimental interference, evoke little or no rejection reaction. this may be viewed in relation to the natural history of tumors. in most cases, tumors evolve in several steps, with a successful of clonal variants following each other, characterized by increasing independence of host regulations (including immune restrictions) ... | 1977 | 194366 |

| differential induction of epstein-barr virus-related antigens in heterokaryon cultures. | different paterns of induction of epstein-barr virus (ebv)-related antigens were observed in heterokaryons produced by sendai virus-mediated fusion of producer and non-producer human lymphoblastoid cells with various other cell types. ebv-related early antigens (ea) and viral capsid antigen (vca) could obviously be induced in heterokaryons between producer cells (p3hr-1 and qimr-wil), normally expressing these natigens at very low frequency, and human fl or hela cells. positive cells were detect ... | 1977 | 194844 |
| comparative studies on adult donor lymphocytes infected by eb virus in vivo or in vitro: origin of transformed cells arising in co-cultures with foetal lymphocytes. | co-cultures were set up between equal numbers of mononuclear cells from the blood of eb virus-infected individuals, either acute im patients or healthy seropositive adult donors, and foetal cord blood mononuclear cells of the opposite sex. the cell lines arising in the co-cultures were of mixed origin, with foetal cells predominating in many cases. in contrast, when mononuclear cells from seronegative adult donors were first infected with eb virus in vitro and then 5 to 12 days later co-cultured ... | 1977 | 194845 |
| detection localization of epstein-barr virus-associated early antigens in single cells by autoradiography using 125i-labeled antibodies. (with 1 color plate). | a characteristic feature of virus-transformed cells is the expression of virus-specific antigens usually detectable by immunological or radioimmune procedures. we report here an autoradiographic method for the detection and localization of such antigens in individual cells which combines the cellular specificity and radiolabeling sensitivity of the above procedures. as a test system we have studied the reaction between virus antigen in some epstein-barr virus (ebv) dna-containing cell lines and ... | 1977 | 194866 |
| transforming activity and antigenicity of an epstein-barr-like virus from lymphoblastoid cell lines of baboons with lymphoid disease. | two lymphoblastoid cell lines were established from baboons with lymphoid disease. cells of these lines were positive for complement and fc receptors but lacked sheep cell receptors, theraby indicating b-cell origin. the cells contained antigens which cross-reacted with epstein-barr virus (ebv), viral capsid antigen (vca), early antigen (ea) and membrane antigen (ma). both lines released virus with in vitro transforming activity for lymphocytes of several primate species including humans. cells ... | 1977 | 194867 |
| immune deficiency of t system with possible t cell regulatory activity defect. | the occurrence of t system immunodeficiency in an infant together with excessive production of igm and, to a lesser degree, of igg and iga, is an unusual combination. a case is reported in which an unremitting lung infection with lymphadenopathy and hepatosplenomegaly developed in a previously healthy two-month-old infant. leukocytosis with lymphocytosis, monocytosis and eosinophilia was rapidly followed by leukopenia and lymphocytepenia after a blood transfusion for anemia. there was a transien ... | 1977 | 194869 |
| suppression of in vitro epstein-barr virus infection. a new role for adult human t lymphocytes. | studies have been performed on in vitro infection by epstein-barr virus (ebv) of subpopulations of human lymphocytes. b cells of adult peripheral or fetal cord blood transform with equal efficiency, whether assayed by dna synthesis induction or by outgrowth of transformed lymphocytes. in contrast, unfractionated adult lymphocytes transform much less efficiently than those from fetal cord. reconstitution experiments of different cell preparations indicated that this difference was due to a suppre ... | 1977 | 195004 |
| antibodies to epstein-barr virus in nasopharyngeal carcinoma and other neoplastic conditions. | sera from patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma (npc) or other malignant diseases and from apparently healthy controls were examined for epstein-barr virus (ebv) antibodies. a difference existed in the percentage of positive sera among the groups studied. high-titer antibody levels were observed in the npc group, but no statistical difference was found among other groups of patients and controls. the data reaffirmed the association of ebv with npc but did not support its etiologic role in the d ... | 1977 | 195074 |
| establishment of an epstein-barr virus-determined nuclear antigen-negative human b-cell line from acute lymphoblastic leukemia. | a human b-cell line designated as ball-1 was established from the peripheral blood of a patient with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (all). neither epstein-barr virus (ebv) particles nor ebv-determined nuclear antigen (ebna) was detectable. the morphologic and growth characteristics were clearly distinct from those of numerous ebv-positive lymphoblastoid cell lines previously reported. ball-1 cells probably originated from the donor's leukemia cells as judged from their cytogenetic, morphologic, an ... | 1977 | 195075 |
| presence of epstein-barr virus receptors, but absence of virus penetration, in cells of an epstein-barr virus genome-negative human lymphoblastoid t line (molt 4). | this paper reports a unique type of interaction of epstein-barr virus (ebv) with an ebv receptor-positive, genome-negative human lymphoid t cell line (molt 4), which can be summarized as follows. although molt 4 cells express receptors for ebv, they appear to block the penetration of this virus. these observations are derived from combined studies with immunofluorescence and electron microscopy. it is possible that t cell lines bearing receptors for ebv may express such a control on virus penetr ... | 1977 | 195091 |

| infectious mononucleosis and mononucleosis syndromes. | infectious mononucleosis (im) and cytomegalovirus (cmv) mononucleosis are caused by a primary infection with related viruses, epstein-barr virus (ebv) and cmv. despite the similarity of clinical manifestations, basic differences exist: (1) the heterophil antibody (ha) response is absent in cmv mononucleosis, whereas it is present in im. (2) in im atypical lymphocytosis reflects proliferation of b cells early and of t cells later in the disease course; in cmv mononucleosis the situation appears c ... | 1977 | 195404 |

| parenterally transmitted non-a, non-b hepatitis: an epidemic reassessed. | in 1972 a nonsocomial outbreak of parenterally transmitted hepatitis affected both marrow transplant patients and normal platelet donors in an oncology unit. because of the characteristics of the clinical illness, the incubation period of 27 days, and the effect of immune serum globulin on the clinical illness, the outbreak was attributed to hepatitis a; there was no serologic evidence of either hepatitis b virus or cytomegalovirus infection. stored serums from this outbreak were re-examined by ... | 1977 | 195506 |
| the viral etiology of cancer: a realistic approach. | the etiology of cancer resembles that of many other diseases in that multiple factors may be required. because of this, the role or viruses in the etiology of human cancers is especially difficult to assess. when animal tumor systems were used as models, the roles of various predisposing characteristics in virus oncogenesis were elucidated. extrapolation of these findings to the human diseases suggests the importance of genetics, age, hormones, immune competence, and stress in determining suscep ... | 1977 | 195710 |
| development of cell-mediated immunity to epstein-barr herpesvirus in infectious mononucleosis as shown by leukocyte migration inhibition. | eight patients with infectious mononucleosis, aged between 8 and 24, were studied for cell-mediated immunity by the in vitro leukocyte migration inhibition test at acute and convalescent stages. follow-up studies were also carried out at up to 4 months after clinical illness. cell-mediated immunity to epstein-barr virus (ebv) in the peripheral leukocytes from these patients was absent or incipient in all cases during the acute phase, although it was present in lymphocytes from a biopsied lymph n ... | 1977 | 195902 |
| epstein-barr virus viral capsid antigen titer by immunofluorescence with microplates: new semiautomated method based on the microtiter system. | a semiautomated method of an indirect immunofluorescence technique for the titration of antibodies directed against viral capsid antigens of epstein-barr virus has been developed with microtiter system units. by this method, a technician is able to titrate some hundred samples daily. the technique is safe, easy, and reproducible. the various procedures are described, and the sensitivity of the test is discussed. | 1977 | 195981 |
| dna of epstein-barr virus. ii. comparison of the molecular weights of restriction endonuclease fragments of the dna of epstein-barr virus strains and identification of end fragments of the b95-8 strain. | incubation of the dna of the b95-8 strain of epstein-barr virus [ebv (b95-8) dna] with ecori, hsu i, sal i, or kpn i restriction endonuclease yielded 8 to 15 fragments separable on 0.4% agarose gels and ranging in molecular weight from less than 1 to more than 30 x 10(6). bam i and bgl ii yielded fragments smaller than 11 x 10(6). preincubation of ebv (b95-8) dna with lambda exonuclease resulted in a decrease in the hsu i a and sal i a and d fragments, indicating that these fragments are positio ... | 1977 | 196117 |

| spontaneous and induced patterns of the epstein-barr virus (ebv) cycle in a new set of somatic cell hybrids. | a somatic cell hybrid line and its subclones obtained by fusing two burkitt lymphoma lines (raji and namalwa) were examined for the expression of ebv-specific antigens both spontaneously and after induction. the hybrids retained spontaneous early antigen (ea) production at the level characteristic of raji. similarly the more permissive raji pattern dominated the induction of ea by iudr treatment or p3hr-1 virus superinfection. these findings accord with our previous results on independently deri ... | 1977 | 196751 |
| [cytotoxicity of human t-lymphocytes sensitized by epstein-barr virus. role of hla antigens at the surface of target cells infected by the virus]. | peripheral t-lymphocytes from patients with infectious mononucleosis are cytotoxic towards target cells from epstein-barr virus-genome carrying human lumphoblastoid lines. thus, these t-cells appear to be sensitized to viral coded determinants. daudi cells, that carry ebv-genome, but lack hla antigens are resistant to specific cytolysis in this model. these results suggest direct hla involvement in the target structure recognized by birus-sensitized cytolytic t-lymphocytes in human. | 1977 | 196780 |
| antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (adcc) against epstein-barr virus-determined antigens ii. induction of adcc by fc-fc receptor bridging. | four different methods to test antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (adcc) against epstein-barr virus (ebv) determined antigens were analysed. it was found that optimal adcc was obtained if viral antigens were present during the cytotoxicity reaction and that killing probably was mediated by ebv-related immune-complexes forming fc-fc receptor bridges between fc receptor-bearing effector cells and fc receptor-bearing target cells. only lymphoid target cells with a high expression of fc recept ... | 1977 | 196801 |
| search for inhibitors against herpes simplex virus type-i in cell extracts derived from human lymphoblastoid cell lines. | cell extracts obtained from kb cells and 5 human lymphoblastoid cell lines including 2 from burkitt's lymphoma (p3hr-1 and raji), one each from nasopharyngeal carcinoma (no.223), acute lymphatic leukemia (molt-4) and a healthy person (nc-37) were tested for their inhibitory effects on the growth of herpes simplex virus type-1 (hsv-1) in green monkey kidney (gmk) cells by the plaque titration method. the relationship between the production of hsv-1 inhibitors and the degree of epstein-barr virus ... | 1977 | 196817 |

| infectious mononucleosis: recognition and management. | differentiation from other common viral infections depends on a triad of clinical, hematologic, and serologic determinations. a distinctive feature is that while a number of circulating immunoglobulins are often detected, only paul-bunnell antibodies, found in 75% of cases, are specific for im. symptomatic care only is indicated for most patients, though severe cases or complications may require antibiotics or corticosteroids. | 1977 | 196996 |
| human lymphoblastoid cell lines derived from individuals without lymphoproliferative disease contain the same latent forms of epstein-barr virus dna as those found in tumor cells. | the physical state of the intracellular epstein-barr virus dna was characterized in four human lymphoblastoid cell lines, f-265, nc-37, u-303 l, and pg-1, derived from individuals without lymphoproliferative disease. for comparison, a previously investigated burkitt lymphoma line, raji, and a more recently established cell line of that origin, rael, were also studied. the techniques employed were cscl density gradient centrifugation, glycerol gradient centrifugation, and ethidium bromide-cscl de ... | 1977 | 197024 |

| productive epstein-barr viral infection of the human lymphoblastoid cell line 6410 with release of early antigen inducing and transforming virus. | the human lymphoblastoid cell line 6410 was superinfected with p3hr-1 derived epstein-barr virus. subsequent to the first cycle of infection, characterized by early (ea) and virus capsid (vca) antigen synthesis, the culture, designated 6410-ebv, continued to synthesize vca. further immunofluorescence and electron microscopic examination over 18-24 months showed the 6410-ebv culture to be productively infected with ebv. virus was recovered, in quantity, from the culture fluids and assayed for abi ... | 1977 | 197026 |
| clonal transformation of adult human leukocytes by epstein-barr virus. | we have developed a clonal transformation assay for epstein-barr virus which uses adult human leukocytes as target cells. the target cells were isolated from epstein-barr seronegative donors, and the same donor's cells could be studied repeatedly over long periods of time. when these cells were transformed by epstein-barr virus and had proliferated sufficiently to be studied, they had an average cloning efficiency of 3%. assuming this average cloning efficiency obtains at the onset of transforma ... | 1977 | 197258 |

| infectious mononucleosis and fatal myocarditis. | mycocarditis is an uncommon manifestation and, very rarely, a lethal complication of infectious mononucleosis. a 14-year-old girl initially had exudative pharyngitis and splenomegaly and developed refractory ventricular fibrillation. the diagnosis of infectious mononucleosis was confirmed by both a strongly positive heterophil antibody test and a high titer of epstein-barr virus. pathologic studies demonstrated extensive histiocytic and lypmhocytic infiltration of the myocardium. | 1977 | 198186 |
| epstein-barr herpesvirus infection: inhibition by immunologically induced mediators with interferon-like properties. | when sensitized leukocytes were re-exposed to ebv antigen or to tuberculin-purified protein derivatives, they produced lymphokines, including the migration inhibition factor, which inhibited the migration of guinea-pig peritoneal exudate cells, and other lymphokines with the characteristics of interferon, which inhibited ebv-induced transformation and ebv superinfection of target cells. unsensitized leucocytes from sero-negative adults and from neonates did not produce lymphokines when challenge ... | 1977 | 198380 |

| viral particles in nasopharyngeal carcinoma. | lymphoepithelioma of the nasopharynx was identified in a 17-year-old chinese male. the epstein-barr virus titer was 1:3200. tissue from the tumor mass was prepared for electron microscopy. particles consistent with the morphological characteristics of herpes virus were found within the cytoplasm of malignant epithelial cells. this finding is discussed in relation to other data suggesting an oncogenic role of herpes virus in human malignancy. | 1977 | 199817 |
| primary epstein-barr virus infection in a renal transplant recipient. | a young girl with familial nephronophthisis and chronic renal failure contracted a primary epstein-barr virus infection after renal transplantation. during the illness she developed a clinical picture of fever and pneumonitis which closely resembled the posttransplantation syndrome usually associated with cytomegalovirus, although she had no evidence of cytomegalovirus infection. a younger sibling with the same renal disease was found retrospectively to have apparently had an earlier subclinical ... | 1977 | 199946 |
| alpha-l-iduronidase activity in established lymphoblastoid cells from patients with hurler and scheie syndromes transformed by epstein-barr virus. | alpha-l-iduronidase activity was determined in established lymphoblastoid cells, which were transformed in vitro by epstein-barr virus, of lymphocytes-rich cell populations isolated from peripheral blood of patients with hurler and scheie syndromes. alpha-l-iduronidase activities in established lymphoblastoid cells from patients were undetectable, while activities of control subjects were clearly detected. these results suggest that established lymphoblastoid cells are useful for the enzymatic s ... | 1977 | 199964 |

| histochemical studies on the ebv-determined nuclear antigen (ebna). | the ebv-determined nuclear antigen (ebna) was studied with regard to several histochemical properties. proteolytic enzymes destroyed ebna staining. rnase dnase and hyaluronidase had no effect on the number of ebna positive cells. intensive treatment with dnase weakened the chromosomal fluorescence of ebna, whereas the staining of interphase nuclei was relatively enzyme resistant. when ebv-associated soluble complement-fixing antigen of raji cells (cfa-r) was added to methanolacetic acid-fixed ch ... | 1977 | 200290 |
| [isoenzyme pattern of acid phosphatase in epstein-barr-virus-dna positive permanent growing lymphoid cell lines (author's transl)]. | the expression of acid phosphatases is cytochemically one of the most important features in permanent growing b-cell-lines. in few cell lines acid phosphatase is resistant against tartrate. tartrate resistant isoenzyme 5 with components a and b can be demonstrated in monocytes, lymphocytes, chronic lymphatic leucemic cells and especially in hairy cells as well as in cell lines derived from a healthy donor. fractionation of acid phosphatase by gelelectrophoresis in separated lymphocytes demonstra ... | 1977 | 200294 |
| human leukemic "null" cell line (nall-1). | a human lymphoblast cell line, nall-1, was established from the peripheral blood of a patient with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (all). nall-1 cells had neither properties of t and b cells nor epstein-barr virus (ebv). many characteristics of the nall-1 line were distinct from those of numerous ebv-positive lymphoblastoid cell lines previously reported. nall-1 cells are considered to have originated from the donor's leukemic cells on the basis of their cytogenetic, morphologic and functional feat ... | 1977 | 200333 |
| nasopharyngeal cancer in patients under the age of thirty years. | there is evidence that patients under 30 years of age with nasopharyngeal cancer present a somewhat different form of disease than patients of the older age group. serum immunologic reactivity in the former was quantitatively different. histologically, tumors in the younger age group are always of the undifferentiated type, and clinically, the disease is aggressive, characterized by frequent bone and lung metastases. the lymphatic spread into the mediastinum is accompanied by a paraneoplastic sy ... | 1977 | 200338 |
| biological characterization of an epstein-barr nuclear antigen-positive american burkitt's tumor-derived cell line. | two distinct cultures derived from a lymphoid cell line designated nab were characterized immunologically, morphologically, and cytogenetically. both cultures were positive for epstein-barr nuclear antigen. nab i cultures were negative for virus capsid antigen and early antigen and were not affected by treatment with 5-iododeoxyurdine. nab ii cultures were positive for virus capsid antigen and early antigen, which increased with 5-iododeoxyuridine treatment. both cultures were superinfected with ... | 1977 | 200355 |
