## Abstract Immune responses to three Epstein–Barr virus (EBV) lytic proteins, DNase, thymidine kinase (TK), and BMRF‐1 gene products (50/52 kDa diffused early antigen, EA‐D complex) were determined in EBV‐infected control individuals and patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC). Immunofluoresc

## Abstract We have examined serial sera from 17 juvenile patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) for their capacity to neutralize the activity of Epstein‐Barr virus (EBV)‐specific DNase. The results revealed that NPC patients who became long‐term survivors (LTS) without evidence of the diseas
Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) latency proteins EBNA1, LMP1, LMP2, and BARF1 are expressed in tumor cells of nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC). IgG and IgA antibody responses to these non-self tumor antigens were analyzed in NPC patients (n ¼ 125) and regional controls (n ¼ 100) by three approaches, focusing
Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)-associated nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) generally occurs in adults, especially in high-prevalence populations such as the Chinese and Eskimos. In Maghrebian populations, young patients affected with this malignancy represent 25% of the total NPC cases. In adults with NPC,
