  • Title: The Epstein-Barr virus receptor on two nasopharyngeal carcinoma model cell lines.
    Author: Takimoto T, Umeda R, Glaser R.
    Journal: Acta Virol; 1989 Aug; 33(4):375-7. PubMed ID: 2574946.
    Abstract:
    It was reported that the OKB7 monoclonal antibody to C3d receptor could directly inhibit Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) attachment to and infection of B-lymphocytes. So we tested whether the OKB7 could inhibit superinfection of two epithelial NPC model cell lines (D98/HR-1 and NPC-KT) with EBV. Pretreatment of B-lymphocytes with the OKB7 significantly inhibits EBV infection. However, pretreatment with the OKB7 had no effect on superinfection of D98/HR-1 and NPC-KT cells. These data suggest that an EBV receptor, unrelated to C3d receptor, exists.
