Aminobisphosphonate pamidronate (PAM) can control Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) associated disorders in humanized mice through a Vγ9Vδ2-T-cell dependent mechanism. This suggests a strong potential for a therapeutic approach using PAM to boost human Vγ9Vδ2-T-cell immunity against EBV associated disorders, such as the lymphoproliferative disease (LPD), posttransplant lymphoproliferative disorder (PLPD), Hodgkins disease, Burkitts lymphoma, and nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC).
