| Abstract | Resolution of Epstein-Barr Virus (EBV) infection in pediatric solid-organ transplant recipients often leads to an asymptomatic carrier state characterized by a persistently elevated circulating EBV load that is 2 to 4 orders of magnitude greater than the load typical of healthy latently infected individuals. Elevated EBV loads in immunosuppressed individuals are associated with an increased risk for development of posttransplant lymphoproliferative disease. We have performed fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) studies with peripheral blood B cells from carriers of persistent EBV loads in order to directly quantitate the number of EBV genomes per infected cell. Patients were assigned to two groups on the basis of the level of the persistent load (low-load carriers, 8 to 200 genomes/105 peripheral blood lymphocytes; high-load carriers, >200 genomes/105 peripheral blood lymphocytes). FISH analysis revealed that the low-load carriers predominantly had circulating virus-infected cells harboring one or two genome copies/cell. High-load carriers also had cells harboring one or two genome copies/cell; in addition, however, they carried a distinct population of cells with high numbers of viral genome copies. The increased viral loads correlated with an increase in the frequency of cells containing high numbers of viral genomes. We conclude that low-load carriers possess EBV-infected cells that are in a state similar to normal latency, whereas high-load carriers possess two populations of virus-positive B cells, one of which carries an increased number of viral genomes per cell and is not typical of normal latency. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
