background epstein barr virus (ebv) is one of the most common viral infections in human population. ebv has a significant role in pathogenesis of hodgkin's lymphoma, burkitt's lymphoma and nasopharyngeal carcinoma. the role of ebv in non-hodgkin’s lymphoma, diffuse large b cell (nhl - dlbl) in the head and neck is controversial. objectives the purpose of this study is to find out the ...

Purpose We hereby describe a case of persistent cytomegalovirus (CMV) viremia and retinitis following allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) that was successfully treated with infusion CMV-specific cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL) despite previous treatment Epstein Bar Virus (EBV) -specific CTL, which occurred 5 months earlier. Observations Following several anti- viral medication tri...

El KSHV / HHV-8 está asociado con el sarcoma de Kaposi (KS), así como trastornos linfoproliferativos, principalmente en pacientes infección por VIH SIDA. Aunque la asociación entre linfomas y se ha descrito, presencia simultánea las 2 entidades dentro del mismo órgano es rara asocia Presentamos un caso aparición linfoma angioinmunoblástico linfonodo, además concurrente herpes virus (KSHV) Epste...

A subfraction of h u m a n blood lymphocytes can lyse certain established cell lines in tissue culture in short-term assays (1-4). The system is similar to the natural killer (NK) x cell system in rats and mice (5, 6). Unlike cytotoxic T cells directed against virally determined antigens or haptens, N K cells do not appear to be under any major histocompatibil i ty complex restriction (7). The ...

Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) is the primary cause of infectious mononucleosis (IM) and is associated with epithelial cell malignancies such as nasopharyngeal carcinoma and gastric carcinoma, as well as lymphoid malignancies including Hodgkin lymphoma, Burkitt lymphoma, non-Hodgkin lymphoma and post-transplant lymphoproliferative disorder. EBV vaccines to prevent primary infection or disease, or the...

Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)-transformed autologous lymphoblasts were repeatedly inoculated into three squirrel monkeys. Each animal developed the heterophile antibodies of infectious mononucleosis and EBV-specific antibodies. After serologic responses had disappeared or markedly declined, the animals were challenged with either whole cells, cell filtrate, or cell ghosts. Animals challenged with li...
