  • Chapter

Part of the book series: Experimental Biology and Medicine ((EBAM,volume 15))

Abstract

Among Epstein-Barr Virus (EBV) — associated antibodies, the antibody against viral capsid antigen of the virus (anti-VCA) in IgA had been considered to be an outstanding feature of nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC,1).
