Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) is a human herpes virus that persists for life and is associated with several neoplasms. Haptoglobin (Hp), a polymorphic multifunctional plasma protein, exerts several immunomodulatory effects. The present study investigated the influence of the genetic polymorphism of Hp on EBV serology. METHODS: Patients without immunoglobulin G (IgG) titers of EBV were compared according to...
