Abstract
A substantial proportion of the lymphomas in HIV-carriers are EBV positive. Together with the fact that there are multiple signs of EBV-activation in AIDS-patients and patients with ARC or PGL, this suggests that these virus carrying tumors develop as results of the immunosuppression, and that EBV has an important role in their pathogenesis.This publication has 15 references indexed in Scilit:
