Abstract

B lymphocytes separated from anti‐HBe‐positive donors were established as lymphoblastoid cell lines by infection with EBV, but anti‐HBe in the culture supernatant from such lymphoblastoid cell lines could not be detected. The lymphoblastoid cell lines were rosetted with HBe antigen‐coupled SRBC to prepare cells for the production of specific anti‐HBe. Antibody activity in the culture supernatant against rosette forming cells was detected by RIA, ID, and R‐PHI tests during the first 1 to 4 wk, but not after 5 wk. The activity in the supernatant was not destroyed by treatment with 2‐mercaptoethanol, indicating that the antibody might be IgG.

We examined the patterns of viral gene expression in acute infectious mononucleosis (IM) patients and the clonality of the directly growing EBV-carrying cell lines. Both low- and high-density EBV-carrying B cells obtained from the patients' tonsils expressed EBNA1, EBNA2 and LMP1. Like LCLs and immu
