By the method of indirect immunofluorescence it has been shown in P3HR-I cells that sera from patients with Hodgkin's disease contain high titers of humoral antibodies to the capsid antigen of Epstein-Barr virus (EBV). Higher titers of antibodies of EBV were found in histological variants of Hodgkin's disease with an unfavorable course. The variant of lymphocyte depletion is accomplished by higher titers of the virus and poorer prognosis than the nodular-sclerotic variant having a course with lower titers of antibodies and better prognosis. At the same time, the level of antibodies does not depend on the results of the therapy applied. In the sera of patients with reticulosarcoma or lymphosarcoma no increase in the level of antibodies to EBV has been discovered in comparison with a group of healthy donors; in acute leukemia a certain tendency to decrease in the level of antibodies to this virus can be observed.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007938 Leukemia A progressive, malignant disease of the blood-forming organs, characterized by distorted proliferation and development of leukocytes and their precursors in the blood and bone marrow. Leukemias were originally termed acute or chronic based on life expectancy but now are classified according to cellular maturity. Acute leukemias consist of predominately immature cells; chronic leukemias are composed of more mature cells. (From The Merck Manual, 2006) Leucocythaemia,Leucocythemia,Leucocythaemias,Leucocythemias,Leukemias
D008228 Lymphoma, Non-Hodgkin Any of a group of malignant tumors of lymphoid tissue that differ from HODGKIN DISEASE, being more heterogeneous with respect to malignant cell lineage, clinical course, prognosis, and therapy. The only common feature among these tumors is the absence of giant REED-STERNBERG CELLS, a characteristic of Hodgkin's disease.

D006689 Hodgkin Disease A malignant disease characterized by progressive enlargement of the lymph nodes, spleen, and general lymphoid tissue.
