Enzootic Bovine Leukosis
ثبت نشده
چکیده
Both EBL and SBL occur in southern Africa and in the Southern African context it will therefore be very important to accurately differentiate between EBL and SBL. The epidemiology, direct and indirect economic impact, diagnosis and most importantly control and eradication of EBL is markedly different to that of SBL. Globally EBL infection may also place severe restrictions on the import and export of cattle and semen.

Detection and Identification of Enzootic Bovine Leukosis (EBL) in Calves in Iran
Enzootic bovine leukosis (EBL) is known as bovine lymphosarcoma and normally affects the old cattle. EBL is caused by bovine leukemia virus (BLV), which is generally spread all around the world. This virus is transmitted via bovine blood products within and between cattle herds. Glycoprotein GP51 in the blood is responsible for cattle immune responses to BLV. This virus has been previously dete...

Neoplasms of the lymphatic tissue in the bovine species can be classified into two major types according to clinical and epidemiological data: 1. The juvenile form of bovine leukosis, with three different clinical forms: the multicentric, thymic, and cutaneous forms. The juvenile form is rare and shows a random geographical distribution. It has also been called sporadic bovine leukosis. 2. The ...

Monoclonal integration of bovine leukemia virus (BLV) proviral DNA into bovine genomes was detected in peripheral blood from two clinical cases of enzootic bovine leukosis (EBL) without enlargement of superficial lymph nodes. A BLV-specific probe hybridized with 1 to 3 EcoRI and HindIII fragments in these 2 atypical EBL cattle by Southern blotting and hybridization, as well as in 3 typical EBL ...

This article presents the essential features of three retroviral infections of animals: enzootic bovine leukosis, equine infectious anaemia and caprine arthritis-encephalitis. A unique feature of these diseases is persistent infection, maintained throughout the life of the host animal by the presence of a provirus integrated into the cells of the host, thereby making an infected animal a contin...
