Epstein–Barr virus–associated lymphoproliferative diseases (also abbreviated EBV-associated lymphoproliferative diseases or EBV+ LPD) are a group of disorders in which one or more types of lymphoid cells (a type of white blood cell), i.e. B cells, T cells, NK cells, and histiocytic-dendritic cells, are infected with the Epstein–Barr virus (EBV).
This photomicrograph depicts leukemia cells that contain Epstein–Barr virus using a FA staining technique. Epstein–Barr virus, EBV, is a member of the Herpesvirus family, and is one of the most common human viruses. When infection with EBV occurs during adolescence or young adulthood, it causes infectious mononucleosis 35% to 50% of the time.
The Gammaherpesvirinae subfamily is associated with episomal latency established in cells of the immune system, such as B-cells in the case of Epstein–Barr virus. [3] [4] Epstein–Barr virus lytic reactivation (which can be due to chemotherapy or radiation) can result in genome instability and cancer. [5]
The Epstein–Barr virus (EBV) is one of the nine known human herpesvirus types in the herpes family, and is one of the most common viruses in humans. EBV is a double-stranded DNA virus and is also called human herpesvirus 4 (HHV-4). [2] Epstein–Barr virus (EBV) is the first identified oncogenic virus, or a virus that can cause cancer. EBV ...
Chronic active EBV infection or in its expanded form, chronic active Epstein–Barr virus infection is a very rare and often fatal complication of Epstein–Barr virus (EBV) infection that most often occurs in children or adolescents of Asian or South American lineage, although cases in Hispanics, Europeans and Africans have been reported.

Epstein–Barr virus. Epstein–Barr virus (EBV) is a member of the gammaherpesvirus subfamily. EBV is responsible for infectious mononucleosis and is linked to several forms of cancer. EBV infects both B cells and epithelial cells and is able to undergo latency in both of these cells. A remarkable fact concerning the latency of EBV is that ...
A battery balancer or regulator is an electrical device in a battery pack that performs battery balancing. [2] Circuitry that includes designs to balance cell charges during battery pack recharging may be either active or passive in its design, [ 3 ] and is most often found in lithium-ion batteries , [ 4 ] e.g., for laptop computers, electrical ...
Epstein–Barr nuclear antigen 1 (EBNA1) is a multifunctional, dimeric viral protein associated with Epstein–Barr virus (EBV). [1] It is the only EBV protein found in all EBV-related malignancies. [2] [3] It is important in establishing and maintaining the altered state that cells take when infected with EBV. [2]
