Early syncytium formation by bovine leukemia virus.
Bovine leukemia virus (BLV) from either persistently infected bat cells or fetal lamb kidney cells induced rapid syncytium formation in F81 indicator cells. Distinct syncytia were seen within 2 h after inoculation of cells with highly concentrated (500-fold) cell-free BLV preparations and within 4 to 8 h when unconcentrated cell-free BLV preparations were used. Indicator cell densities of 1 x 1...
متن کاملInhibition of human immunodeficiency virus syncytium formation and virus replication by castanospermine.
Castanospermine (1,6,7,8-tetrahydroxyoctahydroindolizine) is a plant alkaloid that modifies glycosylation by inhibiting alpha-glucosidase I. Castanospermine is shown to inhibit syncytium formation induced by the envelope glycoprotein of the human immunodeficiency virus and to inhibit viral replication. The decrease in syncytium formation in the presence of castanospermine can be attributed to i...
متن کاملdetection of bovine leukemia virus infection by nested-pcr analysis
bovine leukemia virus (blv) is a retrovirus causing a chronic leukemia/lymphoma in cattle in many countries around the world. screening for antibodies by elisa has been the primary means of detecting the presence of this virus. it is not yet known if this assay will detect antibodies in all cattle during a concomitant bovine leukemia virus infection. the polymerase chain reaction (pcr) of the t...
متن کاملAlteration of the syncytium-forming property of XC cells by productive Moloney leukemia virus infection.
The effect of productive murine leukemia virus (MuLV) infection of the syncytium-forming property of XC cells was studied MuLV-Moloney-infected XC cells, designated XC(M), initially went through a period of spontaneous syncytium formation. The syncytia then disappeared, and XC(M) cells continued to propagate and produce both infectious MuLV and MuLV group-specific antigens. However, XC(M) cells...
متن کاملInduction of syncytia by the bovine C-type leukemia virus.
Bovine buffy coat cells infected with the bovine leukemia virus (BLV) induce syncytia formation in human diploid embryonic lung cells as well as in monolayer cell cultures of bovine, simian, ovine, bat, and caprine origin, but not in mouse fibroblast cells, normall rat kidney cells, or RSV-transformed rat cells. Syncytia were not observed in diploid embryonic lung cells inoculated with bovine b...
