## Abstract Human cord‐blood lymphocytes were infected with B95.8 Epstein‐Barr virus (EBV) before and after separation into B‐ and T‐cell populations. Lymphoblastoid cells exhibiting B‐cell characteristics appeared after 2 to 3 days of culture in the total population and in the separated B‐cell sub
Ultrastructural modifications are described in the plasma membrane of in vitro established human B cells. By the freeze-fracture technique, intramembrane particles (IMPs) are quantified in B lymphocytes following Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) transformation in vitro, and in B-lymphoma (Burkitt-type) cell
## Analysis of antigen uptake and presentation by Epstein-Barr virus-transformed human lymphoblastoid B cells* Epstein-Barr virus-transformed human B cells (EBV-B cells), but not resting B cells or B cells activated by T cell-derived factors, have been shown to support the proliferation of tetanus
The karyotypes of 21 patients with chronic B cell leukemia were studied using lymphoblastoid cell lines obtained with the aid of the Epstein-Barr virus. Ten patients had a normal karyotype and eleven patients, an abnormal. There is no single characteristic anomaly, but certain types were more freque
