Abstract

Reactivation of EBV infection is common in immunocompromised individuals. We determined specific antibodies to EBV-encoded nuclear antigens (EBNA)1 and 2 in 102 sera of HIV-infected individuals. Anti-EBNA1/anti-EBNA2 ratio (E1/E2) is less than 1 in chronic infection and exceeds 1 in healthy EBV-positive carriers. 52% of cases had E1/E2 < 1. E1/E2 decreased remarkably during the progression of HIV infection. Detectable HIV-Antigen, decline of CD4+ cell count and CD4+/CD8+ ratio were correlated with an increasing prevalence of E1/E2 below 1. We conclude that determination of E1/E2 is useful in immunocompromised patients.
