Abstract

Summary. Aim: to explore the presence of cytomegalovirus (CMV) and Epstein — Barr virus (EBV) in glial tumors and some immunological parameters of this category
patients depending on the characteristics of viral infection.
Object and methods: 25 biopsies of glial tumors were investigated, 64 serum samples, 63 samples of peripheral blood
(36 — neuro-oncological patients, 20 — patients infected
with CMV or EBV without tumor pathology, 7— donors). A
virus determination was carried out using polymerase chain
reaction (PCR); phenotype of peripheral blood lymphocytes
determined by flow cytofluorometry using appropriate combinations of monoclonal antibodies; and levels of circulating immune complexes (CIC). Results: in tumors’ tissue of
patients with brain gliomas DNA CMV by PCR detected
in 16%, EBV— 44%, CMV + EBV— 8% of the samples.
The persistence of these viruses was determined (in 75% of
cases) in glioma anaplasia III–IV degree. Before surgery
patients showed leukocytosis, reducing the relative amount
of lymphocytes, a tendency to decrease of CD8+ T-lymphocytes, statistically significant changes relative and absolute
number of B-lymphocytes (increase) and CD16+ cells (reduction) and increasing the level of CIC. These changes
were most pronounced in patients infected with herpesvirus tumors. Conclusion: herpesvirus infection associated
mainly with a high degree of anaplasia glial brain tumors,
and with more pronounced changes in immunological parameters that indicate suppression of T-cell level and activation of the immune system humoral immune response.
