Abstract:
Objective To investigate the correlation between EBV-LMP2-specific cell responses,EBV DNA copies and titers of IgA antibody to viral capsid antigen (IgA/VCA).Methods IgA/VCA antibody were tested with immune-enzyme method.Both of plasma and lymphocytes were respectively separated from IgA/VCA-positive individuals and patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) without treatment.EBV DNA copies and LMP2-specific cell responses were detected by interferon-gamma Elispots assay and fluorescent quantitative PCR method.Results IgA/VCA antibody in 80 of 1 233 individuals was positive in Cangwu county,and the positive rate is 6%.EBV-LMP2-specific cell responses and EBV DNA copies were detected in 72 of 80 IgA/VCA positive individuals and patients with NPC.EBV DNA copies in plasma were increased with rise of titers of IgA/VCA antibody,while EBV-LMP2-specific cell responses were declined.Conclusion EBV-LMP2-specific cell responses and EBV DNA copies are probably associated with titers of IgA/VCA antibody.
