Echovirus encephalitis and myositis in primary immunoglobulin deficiency.

Two children are described with primary hypogammaglobulinaemia and encephalitis associated with echovirus infection. One also developed a condition resembling dermatomyositis which improved after he was given infusions of plasma containing antibody to the echovirus. Although both died of their encephalitis, the course of the brain disease in one of them may have been prolonged by treatment with specific antibody. These cases, together with another briefly mentioned case in an adult with congenital hypogammaglobulinaemia and echovirus infection, indicate that these patients are particularly susceptible to echoviruses.

Some characteristics of lymphoblastoid lines derived from human astrocytomata.

Two immunoglobulin-producing lines of normal lymphoblastoid cells have been established from cultures of two human astrycytomata. These had the same characteristics as lymphoblastoid lines derived from normal human lymphoid tissue or peripheral blood. It is concluded that the lymphoblastoid lines are derivates of non-neoplastic lymphoid cells (perhaps of the B series), which were present as an infiltrate within the astrocytomata. Furthermore, the slow emergence of the lymphoblastoid cells in culture, their continuing requirement for feeder cells and their production of monoclonal rather that heteroclonal immunoglobulin are attributed to an artefact of growth conditions.
