## Abstract A large group of juvenile Hodgkin's disease patients (nโ=โ242, mean age 11.7 years, 75% [nโ=โ181] seropositive) was evaluated for antiโEpsteinโBarr virus (EBV) antibody responses and the presence of EBVโencoded EBERโRNA and latent membrane proteinโ1 (LMP1)โprotein expression in the tumo
## Epstein -Barr Virus (EBV) is implicated in the pathogenesis of endemic Burkitt's lymphoma (BL), B-cell lymphomas occuring under immunosuppression, nasopharyngeal carcinoma and Hodgkin's disease. Two distinct patterns of latent EBV gene expression occur in EBV-associated lymphomas. BLS typically
