Abstract
Two epithelial tumor cell lines were established from biopsy specimens of 2 nasopharyngeal carcinomas (NPC) and designated HNE-1 and HONE-1. Uncloned HNE-1 cells were found to be Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) DNA-positive when examined by Southern blot analysis up to passage 35, after which the EBV genome could no longer be detected. A similar loss of EBV DNA took place in uncloned HONE-1 cells. However, HONE-1 clone 40 cells are still EBV DNA-positive up to passage 42 thus far and cell cultures contain 85-90% EBV nuclear antigen (EBNA)-positive cells. The HNE-1 cell line has been passaged more than 100 times and the uncloned HONE-1 cells more than 90 times. The tumorigenicity of the HNE-1 and HONE-1 cells was demonstrated by tumor induction in nude mice. Karyotypic analysis of the HNE-1 cells demonstrated an aneuploidy with a modal chromosomal number of 74 at passages 5 and 101 at passage 20; 18 marker chromosomes were identified. We have continued to map the EBV genome latently associated with the HNE-1 and HONE-1 cells using the Bam HI, EcoRI or Hind III restriction enzymes. Using EcoRI fragments A-K as probes, we found that HNE-1 EBV DNA is different from B95-8 and HR-1 EBV DNA in the EcoRI-C region. The Bam HI map for HONE-1 EBV DNA is very similar to the B95-8 map; it contains the Bam HI-Y fragment but without Bam HI B' and WI'. Differences were observed between HONE-1 EBV DNA and B95-8 DNA using the Hind III restriction enzyme. There was no evidence of spontaneous expression of the latent EBV genome in HNE-1 cells, and attempts to induce replication of the latent EBV genome and rescue infectious virus have failed, suggesting a tightly restricted virus genome.

Abstract
An Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) specific monoclonal antibody (MAb), designated 55H3, was produced after immunizing BALB/c mice with 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA) activated B95-8 cells. It was possible to demonstrate that this MAb detected an EBV-specific antigen(s) in the EBV genome-positive producer cell lines B95-8 and M-ABA by immunofluorescence. Immunoglobulin prepared from ascites fluid neutralized the activity of the EBV-encoded DNA polymerase, but not the alkaline DNase. By Western blotting, the 55H3 MAb reacts with an 85/80-KD polypeptide. The 55H3 should be useful in examining the role of EBV DNA polymerase in viral replication.

Abstract
Two epithelial tumor cell lines were established from biopsy specimens of nasopharyngeal carcinomas (NPC). The specimens were taken from poorly differentiated squamous cell carcinomas of the nasopharynx. The tissues were prepared for cell culture and eventually two continuous epithelial cell lines were obtained and designated HONE-1 and HNE-1. Light and electron microscopic examination of these two cell lines demonstrated cells with an epithelial morphology including the presence of desmosomes. The HNE-1 cell line has been passaged more than 100 times and the HONE-1 cell line has been passaged more than 90 times. It was found that early-passage uncloned HNE-1 cells (passage 23) could be superinfected with the B95-8 and NPC-EBV isolates as demonstrated by the induction of Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)-specific early antigen(s) in a small percentage of the cells; HONE-1 cells could also be superinfected with EBV. Southern blot analysis detected EBV DNA in samples from uncloned HNE-1 cells at passages 12, 17, 21, 27, and 35. However, by passage 45, EBV DNA could no longer be detected in HNE-1 cells by Southern blot analysis. The EBV genome was detected in parental HONE-1 cells at subculture 9 and in clone 40 cells up to passage 40 thus far. When HNE-1 cells were examined for the expression of the EBV-encoded nuclear antigen (EBNA) at passage 12, only about 10% of the cells were found to be positive. The percentage of EBNA-positive HNE-1 cells decreased as the cells were passaged. A similar loss of EBNA was observed in uncloned HONE-1 cells, but not in HONE-1 clone 40 cells. In clone 40, which has been passaged 40 times thus far, 85-90% of the cells are still EBNA-positive. The data suggest that EBV genome-positive HNE-1 and HONE-1 cells were lost as the cells were cultivated in vitro and that cloning the cells at an early passage level may be critical in maintaining EBV genome-positive epithelial NPC cells. These EBV genome-positive epithelial NPC cell lines will be useful for studying the association of EBV and NPC.

Abstract
Infection of HSB-2 cells with human herpesvirus 6 (HHV6) results in an approximately 51-fold increase in the level of DNA polymerase activity and a 4.44-fold increase in the level of DNase activity when compared to mock-infected cells. There was no increase in thymidine kinase, uracil-DNA glycosylase, or deoxyuridine triphosphate nucleotidohydrolase activities in the infected cells. The HHV6-induced DNase and DNA polymerase activities could be distinguished from their normal cellular counterparts on the basis of immunological specificities and in the case of DNA polymerase based upon differences in electrophoretic migration. Serological studies also demonstrated reactivity of the antisera not only for HHV6 but also for Epstein-Barr virus.

Abstract
It is important to know whether there are variants of Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) with biological properties that are different from the prototype viruses that have been studied in detail, such as P3HR-1 and B95-8. We have studied an EBV isolate derived from a nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) tumor, designated NPC-EBV. We have examined the target B lymphocytes infected and growth-transformed with NPC-EBV as compared with two common EBV isolates, B95-8 and AG876 EBV, for stage of maturation using antibodies to several immunoglobulin chains. Typing of the NPC-EBV transformed lymphoblastoid cell lines revealed the predilection of the NPC-EBV isolate to infect immature B lymphocytes. This was not the case for the B95-8 and AG876 isolates. The reason for the predilection of NPC-EBV for immature B lymphocytes remains to be explored further. However, these results may be important in understanding the pathophysiology of EBV-associated diseases.

Abstract
It was reported that the OKB7 monoclonal antibody to C3d receptor could directly inhibit Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) attachment to and infection of B-lymphocytes. So we tested whether the OKB7 could inhibit superinfection of two epithelial NPC model cell lines (D98/HR-1 and NPC-KT) with EBV. Pretreatment of B-lymphocytes with the OKB7 significantly inhibits EBV infection. However, pretreatment with the OKB7 had no effect on superinfection of D98/HR-1 and NPC-KT cells. These data suggest that an EBV receptor, unrelated to C3d receptor, exists.

Abstract
The B95-8 isolate of the Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) has been described as a non-lytic transforming virus. We have performed experiments in order to determine if the B95-8 EBV is capable of super-infecting and replicating in EBV-genome-positive non-producer lymphoblastoid cells. Using concentrates of B95-8 EBV, prepared from 6 different B95-8 cell lines treated with 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA), we demonstrated that virus concentrates could transform human or cotton-top tamarin B-lymphocytes and also lytically replicate in Raji cells, inducing EBV antigens and infectious virus. While the virus obtained from B95-8 super-infected Raji cells was able to transform cord-blood lymphocytes (CBLs) and super-infect Raji cells, transformation was abortive, with cell cultures only growing for up to 6 weeks. Transformation titers of the B95-8 virus concentrates ranged from 10(5) to greater than 10(8) transforming units/ml; early antigen (EA) induction ranged from 1% to 50% after superinfection of Raji cells, depending on the virus stock used, as determined by immunofluorescence. Southern blot analysis was carried out on the DNA prepared from B95-8 cells and virion DNA. The results were consistent with the published EcoRI restriction pattern for B95-8 EBV. The issue of whether the B95-8 cells produce virions with a dual biological phenotype or, rather, 2 biologically distinct viruses, is addressed.

Abstract
Sister chromatid exchange (SCE) is a genetic indicator of DNA damage in mammalian cells and may afford a sensitive monitor to follow genomic instability of some individuals with fragile chromosomal diseases or malignancies. In studies on the effect of dinitrosopiperazine (DNP), aflatoxin B1 (AFB1), methyl-nitro-nitroso-guanidine (MNNG) and Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infection on SCE in lymphocytes from nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) patients, we found that: (1) the spontaneous SCEs in peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBLs) from 75 NPC patients were significantly higher than those of PBLs from 44 normal adults, 24 cord blood (CBL) specimens, and PBLs from 20 patients with chronic inflammation of the nasopharynx; (2) PBLs from NPC patients who were positive for EBV virus capsid antigen (VCA) IgA antibody had a higher SCE frequency as compared with PBLs from VCA IgA-negative NPC patients; (3) the chemical carcinogens used induced significantly higher SCEs in lymphocytes from NPC patients than in PBLs from normal adults and CBLs; (4) the mean SCEs of EBV growth-transformed CBLs increased from 5.17 to 14.12 after infection and was similar to the level of SCEs found in PBLs from the VCA IgA-positive NPC patients. The data suggest that lymphocytes of NPC patients might be more fragile than the lymphocytes of the control groups studied.

Abstract
Equatorial and axial N-methyl diastereomers of the analgesic drug nefopam hydrochloride were differentiated using a hypothetical model of the serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine) uptake area. Both diastereomers were placed within the hypothetical model area to form van der Waals interactions involving the phenyl group of nefopam, but only in the case of the equatorial N-methyl epimer was the +N--H bond able to be oriented towards the proposed hydrogen-bonding site. A comparison of equatorial N-methyl nefopam hydrochloride enantiomers in the proposed two-site binding mode points to less severe nonbonding steric interactions for the (+)-(1S,5S)-enantiomer compared with the (-)-(1R,5R)-isomer.

Abstract
The Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) has been closely associated with the undifferentiated form of nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC), which is particularly common in the high risk area in southeast China. We have examined 37 nasopharyngeal biopsies from patients within this high risk area, including 31 cases of undifferentiated NPC and 6 cases of patients with nasopharyngitis, for the presence of EBV DNA. We found that 26 of 31 biopsies from NPC patients were EBV DNA positive; 3 of the 6 biopsies from patients diagnosed with nasopharyngitis were also EBV DNA positive. Southern blot analysis of the DNAs obtained from the EBV genome positive biopsies, digested with EcoRI, showed that all preparations from the NPC tumors had only one band corresponding to the EcoRI A fragment when a BamHI W fragment was used as a probe. However, one tumor had an additional band with a molecular weight larger than EcoRI A. The presence of this novel band could indicate the integration of viral DNA into host cellular DNA. DNA from the same biopsies were restricted with BamHI and PstI restriction enzymes. The data obtained from these experiments suggest that the EBV genomes in both the NPC tumor biopsies and biopsies from nasopharyngitis patients obtained from an endemic area in South China may be similar to each other and to the B95-8 EBV isolate with respect to the BamHI Y region of the EBV genome. The data also demonstrate that infection of normal nasopharyngeal epithelial cells with EBV takes place in patients with nasopharyngitis.

Abstract
Gene mapping of an Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) isolate derived from a nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC), designated NPC-EBV, has been performed. This isolate was rescued from an NPC epithelial hybrid cell line (NPC-KT), and used to transform cotton-top tamarin lymphocytes which, along with the epithelial NPC-KT cells, were used in the mapping studies. Using the BamHI and EcoRI restriction enzymes, we found that the NPC-EBV isolate did not contain the deletions observed in the genomes of the prototype HR-1 and B95-8 isolates, and may represent a 'more complete' virus genome. Polymorphism was observed in the BamHI-X, T, H, and L regions as compared to the HR-1 and B95-8 isolates. The NPC-EBV DNA in the epithelial NPC-KT cells was compared to the NPC-EBV genome in three different cotton-top tamarin lymphoblastoid cell lines transformed with the isolate. The restriction patterns were the same with one exception; there were differences in the size of the BamHI N-J het regions. This finding is consistent with the idea that the BamHI N-J het region may be the switch point of EBV DNA from the linear to the episomal form. The NPC-EBV is the first NPC-derived isolate to be obtained from epithelial cells in vivo and maintained in epithelial cells in vitro, and will be useful for studying biological variability of EBV.

Abstract
Electrorotation of single platelets was compared with [14C]serotonin release, aggregation and electron microscopy. Activation of washed and degranulated platelets was induced by thrombin, arachidonic acid, collagen, adrenaline, platelet activation factor (PAF), ADP and A23187. A strong correlation between electrorotation decrease and serotonin release was found. Electrorotation did not correlate with aggregation. It was concluded that an increase of the specific conductivity of the platelet membrane by three orders of magnitude (approx. 1.0.10(-7) S.m-1 to 1.0.10(-4) S.m-1) upon activation was responsible for the observed decrease of anti-field rotation and the shift of the first characteristic frequency towards higher values. Electrorotation allowed for time-dependent measurements of activation. Characteristic activation times in the order of minutes were found. There was the following sequence of activators classified by increasing activation time constants: A23187 was the fastest followed by thrombin, collagen, PAF, arachidonic acid, adrenaline, and ADP.

Abstract
To determine whether biological and/or biochemical variants exist between strains of Epstein-Barr virus (EBV), we superinfected Raji cells with the nontransforming lytic strain of EBV (HR-1), and two isolates that both transform B-lymphocytes and superinfect Raji cells, B95-8, and NPC-EBV. The superinfected cells were assayed for EBV specific DNase. A new electrophoretic form of DNase was observed in cells superinfected with B95-8 EBV as compared to the enzymes induced by the HR-1 and NPC-EBV isolates. There were antigenic differences in the DNase induced by the EBV strains. Since antibody to EBV DNase is a marker for nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC), these data may have implications for EBV-associated disease.

Abstract
In an attempt to examine further the association between active Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infection and the chronic fatigue syndrome (chronic EBV syndrome, or chronic or atypical mononucleosis), antibodies acting against EBV-specific DNase and DNA polymerase, which are expressed only during virus replication, were assayed. Serum samples from 25 healthy EBV-seropositive individuals neutralized 3.5 +/- 5.1 U (mean +/- SD) of DNase activity and 14.7 +/- 8.5 U of DNA polymerase activity. From these values were selected upper limits of anti-EBV enzyme activity of 17.9 and 31.3 U neutralized in normal individuals, respectively (representing the 95% confidence limit). Serum samples from six groups of subjects representing a variety of EBV-related illnesses were then studied. Only patients with notably elevated anti-EBV antibody titers to viral capsid antigen (VCA) (greater than 10,000) had elevated levels of anti-EBV DNase (38 to 56 U neutralized) and anti-EBV DNA polymerase (72 to 106 U neutralized). Three additional patients and two geriatric controls with average anti-EBV early antigen/VCA titers had slightly elevated levels of antibody to EBV DNA polymerase. IgA anti-VCA, anti-early antigen antibodies, or both, were also detected in the same patients who had high EBV DNase and polymerase antibody levels. These antibody profiles are similar to those in patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma. Since three of the six patients with elevated anti-EBV enzyme antibody levels developed fatal lymphomas, patients with chronic EBV and this antibody profile might be in another illness category at risk for malignant disease.

Abstract
While limited data suggest significant gender differences in mental and physical health risks following marital disruption, men have not been studied as intensively as women. In this study, self-report data and blood samples were obtained from 32 separated or divorced men and 32 sociodemographically matched married men. Separated/divorced men were more distressed and lonelier, and reported significantly more recent illness than did married men; the former also had significantly poorer values on two functional indices of immunity (antibody titers to two herpesviruses), while not differing significantly on quantitative indices (percentages of helper and suppressor cells and their ratio). Among married men, poorer marital quality was associated with greater distress and a poorer response on one functional immunological measure, antibody to Epstein-Barr virus (EBV), as well as lower helper/suppressor ratios. Among separated/divorced subjects, those who had separated within the past year and who had initiated the separation were less distressed, reported better health, and had a better performance on one functional immunological assay (EBV antibody titers) than did noninitiators. These data are discussed in the context of research on longer-term adaptation to marital disruption.
