Variations Among Isolates of Epstein‐Barr Virus* (original) (raw)

The study investigates variations among isolates of Epstein-Barr virus (EBV), focusing on their genetic differences and implications for understanding the virus's role in diseases, particularly malignancies like nasopharyngeal carcinoma and Burkitt lymphoma. It highlights the age-dependent incidence of EBV infection and its varying prevalence in different socioeconomic and geographical populations, suggesting a unique strain may exist in specific regions. The findings underscore the necessity for further research into the genetic diversity of EBV and its relationship to disease outcomes.
