T cell subsets in autoimmune and HBV-induced chronic liver disease, HBs antigen carriers with normal histology and primary biliary cirrhosis: a review of the abnormalities and the effects of treatment.

abstract：:Hypogammaglobulinemia is a common symptom in different immunodeficiencies. It is, however, not usually associated with Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infections. The X-linked lymphoproliferative disease (XLP) on the other hand shows immunological changes in response to the EBV. Here we report three previously healthy boys, ...
