Increased oral Epstein-Barr virus shedding with HIV-1 co-infection is due to a combination of B cell activation and impaired cellular immune control

2019-03-24

Abstract excerpt

Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infection is transmitted by saliva and is a major cause of cancer in people living with HIV/AIDS as well as in the general population. To better understand the determinants of oral EBV shedding we evaluated the frequency and quantity of detectable EBV in the saliva in a prospective cohort study of 85 adults in Uganda, half of whom were co-infected with HIV-1. Participants were not receivin...
