Bovine leukaemia virus and enzootic bovine leukosis.
Infection of bovines with bovine leukaemia virus (BLV) manifests itself in either of two ways: 30-70% of carriers develop persistent lymphocytosis (PL), with the viral genome integrated at a large number of different sites in the DNA of the affected B-lymphocytes, without causing any chromosomal abnormalities. Only 0,1-10% of carriers develop lymphoid tumours, which also consist of B-lymphocyte...
متن کاملBovine Leukaemia Virus onco-protein Tax antigen identification in human lymphomas tissue
Background: Bovine leukaemia virus (BLV) is the primary cause of enzootic bovine leukaemia which belongs to the HTLV/BLV group of oncogenic retroviruses including Human T-cell leukaemia virus types 1, 2, and 3 and simian T-lymphotropic virus. Due to daily consumption of milk, meat and other dairy by-products, a possible role in appearing human cancers can be assumed for BLV. Materials and Metho...
متن کاملUsing various antigen preparations to produce monoclonal antibodies against bovine leukaemia virus (BLV) gp51SU
The objective of this study was to compare different antigen preparations to produce monoclonalantibodies against bovine leukaemia virus gp51SU. The four antigen preparations for immunization ofBALB/c mice were: CL: BLV-FLK cell lysate, UF: a fraction of CL (between 30 and 100 kDa), WVP: wholevirus particles and SP: with ion exchange chromatography, gp51SU was semipurified. A total of ninesucce...
متن کاملMultiple sclerosis and Epstein-Barr virus.
CONTEXT Infection with Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) has been associated with an increased risk of multiple sclerosis (MS), but the temporal relationship remains unclear. OBJECTIVE To determine whether antibodies to EBV are elevated before the onset of MS. DESIGN, SETTING, AND POPULATION Nested case-control study conducted among more than 3 million US military personnel with blood samples collec...
متن کاملEpstein-Barr virus and multiple sclerosis.
Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) is one of the most common and successful human viruses, infecting more than 90% of the world's adult population. Despite its strong tumorigenic potential, most virus carriers remain healthy due to maintenance of a delicate balance between the host's immune system, which limits production of virus particles, and the virus, which persists for the duration of the host's li...
