Sickle cell trait is not associated with endemic Burkitt lymphoma: An ethnicity and malaria endemicity‐matched case–control study suggests factors controlling EBV...
(2014-02)
Endemic Burkitt lymphoma (eBL) is associated with Epstein–Barr virus (EBV) and
Plasmodium falciparum coinfections. Malaria appears to dysregulate immunity that would
otherwise control EBV, thereby contributing to eBL ...
Interleukin-6 and interleukin-10 gene promoter polymorphisms and risk of endemic Burkitt lymphoma
(The American Society of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 2014-09-03)
Overexpression of interleukin-6 (IL-6) and IL-10 in endemic Burkitt lymphoma (eBL)
may facilitate tumorigenesis by providing a permissive cytokine milieu. Promoter
polymorphisms influence interindividual differences ...
EBNA-1 specific effector T cell deletion associated with holoendemic malaria exposure in the etiology of endemic Burkitt’s lymphoma (P3063)
(American Association of Immunologists, 2013-05-01)
Etiological mechanism of eBL remain largely unknown despite long-standing
epidemiological link between malaria and EBV co-infection. Age-dependent deficiency in
EBV-specific CD8+ T cell-mediated IFN-γ immunosurveillance ...
