## Abstract Under appropriate culture conditions, EB virus infection of lymphocytes from seropositive donors leads to regression of transformation, and this was shown previously to be due to activation in a secondary immune response of T lymphocytes inhibitory for the autologous lymphoblastoid cell
## Abstract Twenty‐three patients with recent infectious mononucleosis were studied for cell‐mediated immunity to Epstein‐Barr virus (EBV)‐associated antigens. By means of a virion‐containing antigen preparation, (P3J), leukocyte migration inhibition was demonstrated in 6 of 13 patients with acute
## Abstract The presence of Epstein‐Barr virus (EBV) in the blood and urine of 20 patients with infectious mononucleosis (IM) was investigated together with the clinical course of the disease, and in 9 patients up to 2–7 months after recovery. EBV DNA, analyzed by the polymerase chain reaction (PCR
## Abstract Transformation to continuous cell lines has been studied in cultures of peripheral leukocytes from infectious mononucleosis (IM) patients and in co‐cultures of IM leukocytes and foetal cord blood leukocytes of opposite sex. The transformed cells in the co‐cultures were of mixed origin w
