Association between simian virus 40 and non-Hodgkin lymphoma
Polyomavirus T antigen sequences, all of which were SV40-specific, were detected in 64 (42%) of 154 non-Hodgkin lymphomas, none of 186 non-malignant lymphoid samples, and none of 54 control cancers.
SV40-specific T-antigen DNA sequences were detected in 64 of 154 non-Hodgkin lymphomas (42 percent), in none of 186 non-malignant lymphoid samples and in none of 54 colon and breast cancers used as controls. The pattern was similar in HIV-infected and uninfected patients. A separate study by Shivapurkar and colleagues in the same issue reported 43 percent.
