Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) is a B lymphotropic human herpesvirus. Two models, germinal center (GC) and direct infection, describe how EBV infects B-cells. Since in Argentina primary infection is mostly subclinical at young ages, children represent an interesting population where to analyze EBV infection, especially considering that most studies are usually performed in adults. Tonsil biopsies fro...

on a Sumerian clay tablet dating from about 2500 B.C. It describes the cleansing of wounds with water and milk followed by a dressing with honey and resin. The Egyptians discovered that a closed wound will heal faster than a wound which is left open. They devised an adhesive dressing by applying gum to linen strips which were applied to draw the edges of an open wound together. The Ebers papyru...

To the Editor: In a recent letter (1), Ablin conjectures that translation of the hieroglyphic symbol for AAA in many ancient Egyptian papyri (Ebers, Berlin, Hearst, London, and Kahum), may be suggesting the existence of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) or its prototype during th...

Functions of Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)-encoded RNAs (EBERs) were tested in lymphoblastoid cell lines containing EBER mutants of EBV. Binding of EBER1 to ribosomal protein L22 (RPL22) was confirmed. Deletion of EBER1 or EBER2 correlated with increased levels of cytoplasmic EBV LMP2 RNA and with small effects on specific cellular microRNA (miRNA) levels, but protein levels of LMP1 and LMP2A were n...
