Expression of HLA class I and HLA class II by tumor cells in Chinese classical Hodgkin lymphoma patients.
<h4>Background</h4>In Caucasian populations, the tumor cells of Epstein Barr virus (EBV)-positive classical Hodgkin Lymphomas (cHL) patients more frequently express HLA class I and HLA class II molecules compared to EBV-negative cHL patients. HLA expression (in relation to EBV) in Asian...

EBV status was determined by visualization of EBERs in tumor cells using in situ hybridization.
