Effect of recombinant DNA-produced bovine interferon alpha (BoIFN-alpha 1) on the interaction between bovine alveolar macrophages and bovine herpesvirus type 1.
Treatment of bovine alveolar macrophages (BAM) with bovine leukocyte interferon (BoIFN-alpha 1) resulted in reduced bovine herpesvirus type 1 replication and spread. This was demonstrated by reduced virus yields and number of cells infected. BoIFN-alpha 1 treatment of BAM also induced enhanced Fc receptor expression and/or avidity by the cells, increased their activity in antibody-dependent cel...
متن کاملBovine herpesvirus type 1 (BHV-1) is an important cofactor in the bovine respiratory disease complex.
BHV-1 is an important pathogen of cattle. Because of its ability to induce immune suppression, BHV-1 is an important agent in the multifactorial disorder, bovine respiratory disease complex (BRDC). BHV-1 encodes several proteins that inhibit various arms of the immune system suggesting that these proteins are important in the development of BRDC.
متن کاملIsolation of Bovine Herpesvirus-1 (BoHV-1) From Latently Infected/Carrier Cattle in Ahvaz
Bovine herpesvirus 1 (BoHV-1) is one of the most important infectious viruses of cattle which is considered as the causative agent of several clinical conditions in this species. Hence, we tried to isolate a local strain of the virus from carrier cattle in Ahvaz based on a strategy for reactivation of the latent infection in hosts having antibodies against the virus. Thus, 20 cattle were examin...
متن کاملInhibition of lymphocyte proliferation by bovine trophoblast protein-1 (type I trophoblast interferon) and bovine interferon-alpha I1.
Bovine trophoblast protein-1 (bTP-1) is a Type I interferon secreted by the bovine trophoblast from about Day 15 of pregnancy. It is not known whether bTP-1 has functional properties in common with other interferons. The aim of the present study was to determine whether bTP-1 inhibits proliferation of lymphocytes induced by mitogens, mixed lymphocyte cultures (MLC) and interleukin-2 (IL-2) and,...
متن کاملInhibition of bovine sperm-zona binding by bovine herpesvirus-1.
The purpose of the present study was to identify a potential interference of bovine herpesvirus-1 (BoHV-1) with sperm-oocyte interactions during bovine in vitro fertilization. An inhibition of almost 70% of sperm-zona binding was observed when bovine cumulus-denuded oocytes were inseminated in the presence of 10(7) 50% tissue culture infective dose/ml BoHV-1. The inhibitory effect of BoHV-1 on ...
