Abstract
One of six white‐lipped marmosets inoculated with cell‐free B95‐8 virus developed diffuse malignant lymphoma. Epstein‐Barr virus (EBV) DNA was detected in a pathologically enlarged mandibular lymph node by DNA‐DNA hybridization. The affected animal at the time of killing had EBV antibody titers of 1:320 for viral capsid antigen (VCA) and 1:20 for early antigen (EA) while all non‐diseased animals had ≦1:80 VCA antibody and no detectable EA antibody. This is the first report of lymphoma development in a white‐lipped marmoset following EBV inoculation.

Post-transplant lymphoproliferative disease (PTLD) is a major cause of death and disease in transplant patients. We describe 4 cases with histologically confirmed malignant lymphoma arising in the Birmingham liver transplant programme between 1982 and 1995. One was an EBV-positive diffuse large B-ce
## Abstract Epstein‐Barr virus (EBV) is a common herpes virus linked to a variety of human neoplasms. In this study, the EBV detection was identified with the paraffin‐embedded tissues from 62 non‐Hodgkin's lymphomas, 20 Hodgkin's lymphomas, and 48 non‐neoplastic tonsils, using PCR for EBNA‐1 and E
## Abstract Inoculation of a cotton‐topped marmoset with cell‐free EBV, strain B95‐8, resulted in the induction of lymphomas in liver, spleen, and mesenteric lymph nodes. Continous suspension cell lines were established from tumor tissue from each of these three sites. Cells of each line were posit
