Mutants of the EB virus-transformed cell line T5-1 (HLA-A1, 2; B8, 27), bearing well-characterized alterations in HLA-A2 antigen expression and unable to bind the HLA-A2-specific monoclonal antibody BB7.2, have been tested for their susceptibility to EB virus-specific cytolysis using effector T-cell
Epstein–Barr virus-specific cytotoxic T-cell clones restricted through a single HLA antigen

## Abstract The experiments show that the phenomenon of regression, seen exclusively in Epstein‐Barr (EB) virus‐infected cultures of mononuclear cells from EB virus antibody‐positive donors, is mediated by cytotoxic T cells reactivated __in vitro__ and specifically recognizing an EB virus‐induced l
The level of Epstein-Barr (EB) virus-specific cytotoxic T cell responsiveness was measured in 21 patients with active, progressive rheumatoid arthritis (RA). A significant number (8 out of 20) of EB virus sero-positive patients showed a markedly impaired responsiveness when compared with a control g
