متن کاملEpstein–Barr Virus+ Smooth Muscle Tumors as Manifestation of Primary Immunodeficiency Disorders
Epstein-Barr virus positive (EBV+) smooth muscle tumors (SMTs) constitute a very rare oncological entity. They usually develop in the context of secondary immunodeficiency caused by human immunodeficiency virus infection or immunosuppressive treatment after solid organ transplantation. However, in a small fraction of predominantly pediatric patients, EBV+ SMTs may occur in patients with primary...
متن کاملTHE IN VITRO GROWTH PROPERTIES OF CELL LINES FROM EPSTEIN-BARR VIRUS-INDUCED TAMARIN TUMORS AND TAMARIN B CELLS TR ANSFORMED BY EPSTEIN BARR VIRUS
EBV-carrying human cell lines, depending on whether the cells are derived from Burkitt's lymphoma (BL) tumor biopsies or transformed by EBV in vitro, have different growth properties in vitro. In contrast, there are no clear differences between tamarin tumor lines and tamarin LCLs in vitro. Both types of tamarin cell lines could grow in agarose and formed colonies unlike human LCLs, althoug...
متن کاملAn Epstein-Barr virus-associated smooth muscle tumor successfully treated with surgical resection: a case report and literature review.
Epstein-Barr virus–associated smooth muscle tumors (EBV-SMTs) occur predominantly in immunocompromised patients, either in the setting of solid organ transplantation or with HIV/AIDS.1 The role of EBV in the development of smooth muscle tumors was first described in the 1990s, after studies consistently showed high levels of EBV replication, EBV in-situ hybridization positivity (EBV encoded RNA...
