In situ expression of helper-free avian leukosis virus (ALV)-based retrovirus vectors in early chick embryos.
Defective avian leukosis-based vectors expressing the bacterial lacZ gene were used as helper-free preparations to infect early stage Brown-Leghorn embryos. Both in toto X-gal staining and DNA analysis using Southern blot technique were applied to detect virus integration and expression. Our results demonstrate a low efficiency of in vitro infection in early stages of embryonic development. Sou...
متن کاملDetection of avian leukosis virus (ALV) in albumen of Shiraz commercial and local layer flocks using ELISA and RT-PCR
Avian leukosis viruses (ALVS) cause different types of tumours in poultry and can affect the health and egg production of the birds. To investigate the presence of the virus in chicken layer flocks in Shiraz, 222 egg albumen from local layer breeder (25 eggs), local layer grand parent (30 eggs), broiler breeder (60 eggs), commercial layer (46 eggs) and broiler grand parent (61 eggs) were tested...
متن کاملMicroRNA-23b Promotes Avian Leukosis Virus Subgroup J (ALV-J) Replication by Targeting IRF1
Avian leukosis virus subgroup J (ALV-J) can cause several different leukemia-like proliferative diseases in the hemopoietic system of chickens. Here, we investigated the transcriptome profiles and miRNA expression profiles of ALV-J-infected and uninfected chicken spleens to identify the genes and miRNAs related to ALV-J invasion. In total, 252 genes and 167 miRNAs were differentially expressed ...
متن کاملSelection of a subgroup A avian leukosis virus [ALV(A)] envelope resistant to soluble ALV(A) surface glycoprotein.
The host developing resistance to retroviral infection is believed to be a major force in the evolution of multiple receptor usage by retroviruses. The avian leukosis-sarcoma virus (ALV) group of retroviruses provides a powerful system for studying the envelope-receptor interactions involved in retrovirus entry; different members of this group of closely related viruses use distinct cellular re...
متن کاملTargeting avian leukosis virus subgroup A vectors by using a TVA-VEGF bridge protein.
Previously, we have demonstrated that bridge proteins comprised of avian leukosis virus (ALV) receptors fused to epidermal growth factor (EGF) can be used to selectively target retroviral vectors with ALV envelope proteins to cells expressing EGF receptors. To determine whether another type of ligand incorporated into an ALV receptor-containing bridge protein can also function to target retrovi...
