Human herpesvirus (HHV-6) and Epstein-Barr virus (EBV), are two ubiquitous human herpesviruses which share many common features although they belong to different sub-families. In particular, both viruses are found in lymph nodes of patients suffering from Hodgkin's lymphoma. The aim of this study was to detect and to quantify independently HHV-6 and EBV by a real-time PCR in lymph nodes from 86 patients with Hodgkin's lymphoma. EBV quantitative method was compared with LMP-1 protein detection among the same samples. EBV genome was detected for 61.6% of the patients (53/86) and the highest prevalence of this virus was observed in Hodgkin's lymphoma with mixed-cellularity histopathological type (80%). In contrast to that, HHV-6 genome was detected for 79.1% of the patients (68/86) and was most observed in the nodular-sclerosis group (83.6%). Among the 68 HHV-6 positive samples, 63 belonged to the B subtype. A large number of biopsies (47.7%) were positive for both viruses whereas a little number (7%) was negative for both. EBV quantitation and LMP-1 immunohistochemistry were correlated statistically but this latter technique was less sensitive. Among the nodular-sclerosis patients, HHV-6-/EBV+ patients were significatively older than HHV-6+/EBV- patients. Patients infected dually had higher values of quantitation for each virus than those positive for one virus. Data of the clinical follow-up obtained by diagnosis and during the treatment of 83 patients, were correlated with the virological findings. 相似文献

Persistence of Epstein-Barr virus in Reed-Sternberg cells throughout the course of Hodgkin's disease. 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
Non-isotopic in situ hybridization employing digoxigenin-labelled DNA probes has been used to localize Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) in 55 cases of Hodgkin's disease (HD). The virus was found in Reed-Sternberg (RS) and mononuclear Hodgkin's cells in nine patients (16 per cent). Further samples taken at different times from three patients also showed the presence of EBV in the malignant cell population. Estimations of the number of EBV genomes present per cell suggested wide variations between different patients, but relatively constant amounts in different samples from the same patient. These findings are compatible with a stable infection of the neoplastic cells and support the notion that EBV may play a role in the development of HD in these patients. We also found evidence for the presence of EBV in a small percentage of non-neoplastic cells in 8 of the 55 samples. This suggests that isolation of EBV from HD tissue does not always signify a pathogenetic role for the virus. Furthermore, it is apparent that a high percentage of HD tissues do not contain demonstrable EBV, and the virus is therefore unlikely to be a causative agent for all cases of HD. 相似文献

The presence of Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) DNA in biopsy tissues from patients with Hodgkin's disease (HD) was investigated by the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) using primers specific to a sequence within the EBV Bam H1W region. EBV genome was detected in 33 of 57 (58 per cent) cases of HD. Viral DNA was, however, also demonstrated in nine of 24 non-Hodgkin's lymphomas, in three of nine non-neoplastic lymph nodes and in seven of 12 normal peripheral blood samples used as controls. In all cases, the band obtained following PCR was verified using Southern blotting and hybridization with highly specific Bam H1W probes. The results suggest that the technique is sufficiently sensitive to detect EBV in persistent latent infection in B-lymphocytes. Distinction between virus present as a possible aetiological agent of malignancy or as a latent infection is not possible when PCR is used under these conditions. The possible role of EBV as an aetiological agent of HD remains unresolved. 相似文献

Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infection in lymphoproliferative lesions has been assumed to be strictly latent. In order to investigate the possible occurrence of EBV replication in AIDS-related lymphoma (ARL) cells, we studied 13 cases by immunohistology using monoclonal antibodies to the EBV-encoded switch-protein BZLF1, early antigens (EAs), late replicative proteins [virus capsid antigens (VCAs) and membrane antigens (MAs)], and to the latent proteins EB nuclear antigen 2 (EBNA 2) and latent membrane protein (LMP). EBV genomes were detected by in situ hybridization. EBV genomes and/or gene products were demonstrated in ten cases, including all immunoblast-rich lymphomas, two Burkitts lymphomas, and a T-cell anaplastic large-cell lymphoma. The BZLF1 protein, which disrupts latency in B cells, was identified in six (60 per cent), and EAs in four (40 per cent) of the EBV-positive ARL. Only one lymphoma (10 per cent) expressed VCAs and MAs. EBNA 2 and LMP were detected in three (30 per cent) and eight (80 per cent) of EBV-positive cases, respectively. EBV DNA was detected in lymphoma cells in 7 of 12 (58 per cent) cases. The most important finding of this study was frequent spontaneous activation of latent EBV in ARL. Production of complete virus, however, was either aborted, or tumour cells expressing late productive cycle proteins (VCA, MA) were rapidly cleared from tissues. It is suggested that host factors that normally inhibit replication of EBV are deficient in AIDS patients. 相似文献

The Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) nuclear antigen 1 (EBNA1) is generally expressed in all EBV-associated tumours and is therefore an interesting target for immunotherapy. However, evidence for the recognition and elimination of EBV-transformed and Burkitt's lymphoma (BL) cells by cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) specific for endogenously presented EBNA1-derived epitopes remains elusive. We confirm here that CTLs specific for the HLA-B35/B53-presented EBNA1-derived HPVGEADYFEY (HPV) epitope are detectable in the majority of HLA-B35 individuals, and recognize EBV-transformed B lymphocytes, thereby demonstrating that the GAr domain does not fully inhibit the class I presentation of the HPV epitope. In contrast, BL cells are not recognized by HPV-specific CTLs, suggesting that other mechanisms contribute to providing a full protection from EBNA1-specific CTL-mediated lysis. One of the major differences between BL cells and lymphoplastoid cell lines (LCLs) is the proteasome; indeed, proteasomes from BL cells demonstrate far lower chymotryptic and tryptic-like activities compared with proteasomes from LCLs. Hence, inefficient proteasomal processing is likely to be the main reason for the poor presentation of this epitope in BL cells. Interestingly, we show that treatments with proteasome inhibitors partially restore the capacity of BL cells to present the HPV epitope. This indicates that proteasomes from BL cells, although less efficient in degrading reference substrates than proteasomes from LCLs, are able to destroy the HPV epitope, which can, however, be generated and presented after partial inhibition of the proteasome. These findings suggest the use of proteasome inhibitors, alone or in combination with other drugs, as a strategy for the treatment of EBNA1-carrying tumours. 相似文献

In situ hybridization for Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) encoded small nuclear RNAs (EBERs) is the method of choice for the detection of EBV infection at the single cell level. With the application of this technique it was shown that non-Hodgkin's lymphomas of B-cell type may be associated with an EBV infection of tumour cells. Interestingly, in many EBV-positive cases, only a proportion of the tumour cell population has been found to be EBER-positive. To clarify whether EBV is absent or whether EBER gene expression is downregulated in EBER-negative tumour cells, single EBER-positive and negative tumour cells were isolated from paraffin sections from four B-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma cases with partial EBER expression in the neoplastic cells. These single cells were then screened for the presence of EBV DNA by a nested single cell PCR. EBV DNA was undetectable in all but one of the 86 EBER-negative cells, whereas in the EBER-positive cells EBV-specific DNA amplificates could be generated following single cell PCR. This finding prompts the conclusion that the inability to detect EBERs in a proportion of tumour cells is not due to a down-regulation of gene expression but to a real absence of EBV from these cells. This partial absence of EBV is thought to be caused by a loss of the EBV episomes during cell division, rather than by infection of only a proportion of the tumour cells. 相似文献

We describe a patient who was diagnosed with classical Hodgkin lymphoma (CHL) at 67-years-old and peripheral T-cell lymphoma, not otherwise specified (PTCL) at 76-years-old, and died 5 months later. Both tumors showed prominent epithelioid cell reaction admixed with neoplastic cells. Hodgkin and Reed-Sternberg cells in the swollen lymph node were positive for CD30 and EBV-encoded RNA (EBER). PTCL cells in the skin tumor were positive for cytoplasmic CD3ε, CD4 and EBER. A rearrangement band of the T-cell receptor gene was detected in the skin tumor. This case is the first documented EBV-associated composite lymphoma composed of CHL and PTCL. The patient may show the possibility that both EBV infection and/or immunodeficiency induce the development of CHL and PTCL. 相似文献

Hodgkin's disease (HD) is associated with the Epstein–Barr virus (EBV) in approximately half of cases. This is a report of a case of nodular sclerosing HD of the B-cell type that was associated with EBV in the initial manifestation, but was found to be EBV-negative in the relapse of the tumour. Both tumours displayed similar clinical, pathological, and immunohistochemical features. This finding implies that in a given individual EBV can be lost from malignant tumours and therefore shows that the EBV infection is not required to maintain neoplastic growth of HD tumour cells. © 1997 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. 相似文献

The purpose of this study was to examine the prognostic significance of insulin‐like growth factor‐1 receptor (IGF‐1R) expression alone and in relation to the expression of the MET‐ receptor and the MET‐homologous receptor RON, in classical Hodgkin's lymphoma (cHL). Tumour samples from patients with cHL (n = 202; median age 37.5 years) were analysed retrospectively for IGF‐R1, MET or RON expression by immunohistochemistry using tissue microarrays. The median follow‐up time was 3.7 years (range, 0.1–20 years). Twenty‐nine patients (14.3%) expressed IGF‐1R protein in Hodgkin/Reed–Sternberg (HRS) cells, which was associated with a better overall survival (OS) (P = 0.036). IGF‐1R expression was closely associated with MET receptor expression and low level of lactate dehydrogenase. In patients with cHL receiving doxorubicin, bleomycin, vinblastine and dacarbazine, those expressing IGF‐1R showed a trend towards better OS and event‐free survival than IGF‐1R‐negative patients (P = 0.129 and P = 0.115 respectively), but statistical significance was not reached. This study suggests that IGF‐1R expression could be associated with better clinical outcome in cHL but is significantly associated with the expression of MET receptor. 相似文献

The present study has compared immunohistological marker expression profiles and genomic imbalances in seven African endemic Burkitt's lymphomas (eBLs) with those in ten European B-cell lymphomas with MYC rearrangement as shown by fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) analysis. eBLs showed a typical histomorphology and a homogeneous immuno-profile: CD10+, CD38+, CD77+, bcl-2-, and IgM+. Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) DNA was present in all cases. On comparative genomic hybridization (CGH), only three out of six eBLs showed imbalances (median number of imbalances = 2), with gains on chromosome 17 in two eBLs. The European lymphomas were all highly proliferating, with a Ki-67 index of at least 90%, and included seven with morphology typical of sporadic Burkitt's lymphoma (sBL) and three immunoblastic diffuse large B-cell lymphomas with MYC rearrangement (MYCre+DLBCL). In contrast to eBL, the immuno-profiles of the European lymphomas were less homogeneous and inconsistent for CD10, CD38, CD77, IgM and bcl-2 expression. EBV DNA was not detected. In five of seven sBLs, CGH showed a higher number of imbalances (median = 6), with recurrent gains on chromosome 1q (3/7) and losses on 12q and 17p (2/7), whereas all three MYCre+DLBCLs had fewer imbalances (median = 4), with gains on 17q in two of three lymphomas. It is concluded that eBL has a homogeneous immunohistology and few secondary genomic aberrations, whereas MYC-rearranged and highly proliferating European B-cell lymphomas are a heterogeneous group that includes sBL and a subgroup of diffuse large B-cell lymphomas. 相似文献

Nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) and Hodgkin's disease (HD) are characterized by their association with Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) and the presence of an intense lymphoid stroma, consisting of T lymphocytes and other reactive cells. In both entities, the tumour cells express viral proteins known to provide target epitopes for cytotoxic T-cells (CTLs), yet in vivo, the tumour cells appear to escape CTL recognition. A comparative in situ hybridization study of cytokine and chemokine gene expression in NPC and HD has been undertaken, focusing on cytokines which are known to be inducible by EBV in vitro. Hodgkin and Reed-Sternberg (HRS) cells expressed interleukin (IL)-6, IL-8, and IL-10, and the thymus and activation regulated chemokine (TARC) in 15/22, 0/22, 5/22, and 16/21 cases, respectively. In NPC, the epithelial tumour cells showed expression of IL-6 in 3/43 cases and of IL-8 in 2/40 cases. There was no detectable expression of IL-10 and TARC in these cases. These data confirm that HRS cells frequently express cytokine and chemokine genes and suggest that this may enable HRS cells to modulate the immune response in their microenvironment and to escape CTL detection. In contrast, NPC tumour cells show only rare expression of IL-6 and IL-8 and no detectable expression of IL-10 and TARC. Thus, the results suggest that the mechanisms employed by the EBV-positive tumour cells to escape immune recognition and destruction differ between HD and NPC. 相似文献

Hoeller S, Zihler D, Zlobec I, Obermann EC, Pileri SA, Dirnhofer S & Tzankov A(2010) Histopathology 56, 217–228 BOB.1, CD79a and cyclin E are the most appropriate markers to discriminate classical Hodgkin’s lymphoma from primary mediastinal large B‐cell lymphoma Aims: To clarify which immunohistochemical markers could be helpful in distinguishing between classical Hodgkin’s lymphoma (cHL) and primary mediastinal B‐cell lymphoma (PMBCL) to more narrowly define ‘B‐cell lymphoma, unclassifiable, with features intermediate between diffuse large B‐cell lymphoma and cHL’. Methods and results: Two hundred and 83 cHLs and 51 PMBCLs were analysed on validated tissue microarray platforms with antibodies to BOB.1, CD15, CD20, CD23, CD30, CD79a, cyclin E, LMP‐1, MUM1p, p63 and Oct2. The marker cut‐off scores were calculated using receiver–operating characteristic curves. Markers with the highest positive predictive value for cHL were: CD15, cyclin E, LMP‐1 (all 100%), MUM1p (93%) and CD30 (83%). High sensitivity was achieved only by CD30 (92%) and cyclin E (79%). Nineteen percent of PMBCLs were also positive for CD30, which led to a lower specificity of CD30 as regards cHL (81%) compared with cyclin E (100%). The antibodies with the highest positive predictive value for PMBCL were: CD23 (98%), p63 (96%), BOB.1 (94%) and CD79a (90%), with high sensitivity for BOB.1 (100%), CD79a (89%) and p63 (82%). Conclusions: The use of at least three of the most accurate immunohistochemical markers, cyclin E, CD79a and BOB.1, may be helpful in the differential diagnosis of cHL and PMBCL. 相似文献

This study assessed the association of hepatitis B virus (HBV) and hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection with non-Hodgkin's lymphoma in a highly HBV-endemic area. The prevalence of either HBV or HCV infection in 235 patients with non-Hodgkin's lymphoma was compared with that of an age- and sex-matched hospital control group of 235 patients. The prevalence of HBV infection was higher in B-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (15.5%) than control (8.1%), but the prevalence of HCV infection in the non-Hodgkin's lymphoma patients (2.1%) and control group (3%) was similar. HBV prevalence increased significantly with age in the B-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma patients. The presence of HBV proteins and DNA in lymphoma tissues and peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) from HBV-infected non-Hodgkin's lymphoma patients was also investigated using immunohistochemistry and PCR. HBV DNA was frequently detected in PBMCs from HBV-infected non-Hodgkin's lymphoma patients, but HBV antigens were not. Therefore, HBV infection, but not HCV infection, was associated with B-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma in Korea, suggesting a possible role for HBV in the development of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. 相似文献
