The ubiquitous Epstein-Barr virus (EBV), which establishes latency after primary infection, does not cause any symptomatic diseases as long as cellular immunity is intact. In apparently immunocompetent individuals, a chronic infection can develop, and this has been called as chronic active EBV infection (CAEBV). CAEBV is characterized by chronic or recurrent infectious mononucleosis-like sympto...

متن کاملElevated IgA antibodies to Epstein-Barr virus in children with chronic active Epstein-Barr virus infection.
Anti-Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) antibodies were tested in 11 children with chronic active EBV infection. Anti-virus capsid antigen (VCA)-IgG antibody titers ranged from 1:640 to 1:10,240. Anti-VCA-IgM antibody was consistently positive in 5 of the 11 patients; anti-VCA-IgA antibody was consistently positive in 6 of the 10 patients; anti-early antigen (EA)-IgG antibody was consistently positive in...
متن کاملFeatures of Chronic Active Epstein-Barr virus Infection and Related Human Diseases
A chronic undefined illness characterized by infectious mononucleosis (IM)-like symptoms and signs, possibly associated with Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infection, designated as so-called chronic active EBV infection (CAEBV), is focused and discussed in this mini-review. Patients with CAEBV often develop T cell lymphoproliferative disorder (LPD)/lymphoma or NK cell LPD/lymphoma. Unique manifestati...
متن کاملPrognostic factors for chronic active Epstein-Barr virus infection.
Chronic active Epstein-Barr virus infection (CAEBV) is a high-mortality and high-morbidity disease. To clarify the prognostic factors, a national survey was performed in Japan, and data for 82 patients who met the criteria for CAEBV were analyzed. Of these 82 patients, 47 were alive and 35 had already died. Multivariate analysis revealed that thromobocytopenia and age at disease onset were corr...
