Lymphomas occurred in 3 of 16 Japanese patients with ataxia telangiectasia (AT) and Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome (WAS). The patients had a persistently reactivated Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infection with a remarkable decrease in virus-specific cellular immunity. In these patients, the B lymphocytes were more sensitive to EBV-induced events and to cellular proto-oncogene activation than seen in the healthy counterparts. This immunologic and genetic background was considered to explain the massive lymphoproliferation in these primary immunodeficiency disorders.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007111 Immunity, Cellular Manifestations of the immune response which are mediated by antigen-sensitized T-lymphocytes via lymphokines or direct cytotoxicity. This takes place in the absence of circulating antibody or where antibody plays a subordinate role.
