Detection of Antibodies Against Bovine Leukemia Virus
A modified syncytium-induction inhibition test which is more sensitive than the immunodiffusion test, was developed using rabbit complement. In this test, fetal lamb kidney cells continuously infected with bovine leukemia virus were used as effector cells, and the CC81 cat cells transformed with murine sarcoma virus, were used as indicator cells. The syncytiuminduction inhibition effect of anti...
متن کاملVaccination against δ−Retroviruses: The Bovine Leukemia Virus Paradigm
Bovine leukemia virus (BLV) and human T-lymphotropic virus type 1 (HTLV-1) are closely related d-retroviruses that induce hematological diseases. HTLV-1 infects about 15 million people worldwide, mainly in subtropical areas. HTLV-1 induces a wide spectrum of diseases (e.g., HTLV-associated myelopathy/tropical spastic paraparesis) and leukemia/lymphoma (adult T-cell leukemia). Bovine leukemia vi...
متن کاملImmunity Against Avian Influenza Viruspanax Ginseng Polysaccharide (GPS) Can Improve Immunity Against H9N2 Avian Influenza Virus in Chickens
The humoral immunization potential of panax ginseng polysaccharide (GPS) against H9N2 avian influenza virus (H9N2 AIV) in chickens was investigated. The effects of GPS treatment before and during H9N2 AIV infection were determined in chicken embryo fibroblast (CEF) by MTT (3(4, 5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2, 3-diphenyl tetrazolium bromide) assays and quantitative RT-PCR analysis of MHC and cytokine...
متن کاملEarly 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 کاملBovine leukemia virus gene expression in vivo.
The in vivo transcriptional status of bovine leukemia virus was assessed at three stages of infection during the progression of the disease: aleukemic stage, persistent lymphocytosis, and leukemia/lymphosarcoma. Bovine leukemia virus transcripts could be amplified from total or cytoplasmic enriched lymphocyte RNA by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction in cells from all but a few ale...
