Immunofluorescent detection of herpesvirus antigens in exfoliated cells from human cervical carcinoma

I Royston et al. Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A. 1970 Sep.

Abstract

Exfoliated cells from patients with squamous carcinoma of the cervix contain antigens related to herpesvirus subtype 2, as revealed by direct or indirect immunofluorescent techniques. Normal squamous cells from the same subjects and from controls without the disease, and cells from a small number of tumors at sites other than the cervix, did not react with anti-herpesvirus subtype 2 serum. Antisera to adenovirus 18 or mycoplasma orale did not react with the exfoliated cells.
