Epstein–Barr virus at 60:
The 1964 discovery of Epstein–Barr virus shed light on factors that contribute to human cancer. Subsequent studies set the stage for finding ways to diagnose and treat cancer, and revealed how immune defences control viral infection.“
„This month marks the 60th anniversary of the discovery of Epstein–Barr virus (EBV), the first virus shown to cause cancer in humans. In March 1964, Anthony Epstein, Yvonne Barr and Bert Achong presented findings1 in The Lancet which reported the identification of these virus particles in cancer cells, grown in vitro…“

„Abstract:
This month marks the 50th anniversary of the discovery of Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) as the first human tumor virus. In March 1964, a team led by Anthony Epstein identified herpesvirus-like particles in cultured tumor cells… At that time, the idea that a virus caused human cancer was met with some skepticism because the theory that cancer was infectious had been dismissed in the previous century. Stalwart investigators continued to track EBV until the viral culprit was declared a class I carcinogen by the International Agency for Research on Cancer and the World Health Organization in the late 1990s. Despite the consensus that EBV is a bona fide tumor virus, the mechanisms of cancer causation by EBV remain an area of active investigation and controversy 50 years since its initial discovery.“
