Immunological Reactions of the Coxsackie Viruses
نویسندگان
چکیده
Maternal antibodies to the Coxsackie viruses (C virus) are conveyed to newborn mice through the colostrum and milk. of vaccinated mothers. No evidence for or against placental transmission of immunity was obtained. The immunity conferred on the young is type-specific. Immunity may be conferred to infants born of non-immune mice by allowing a suckling period of 24 to 48 hours with an immune mother. Immunity appears to be transferred through the milk for the duration of lactation. Strains of C virus can be typed by challenging infant mice born to mothers vaccinated with known types according to the outline presented above. Complement-fixing antibodies are also transferred from vaccinated mother mice to their offspring.

Quantitative Studies of the Virus-host Relationship in Chimpanzees after Inapparent Infection with Coxsackie Viruses
Eight chimpanzees were fed and/or inoculated with a single Coxsackie (C) virus or combinations of different ones. The responses in terms of complement-fixing (c-f) antibodies to 6 to 10 such viruses were measured throughout periods of 1 to 2 years. Although the animals usually responded with rises in homologous antibodies after the feeding or the inoculation of viruses of special immunological ...
متن کاملHeterotypic reactions in a radioimmunoassay for coxsackie B virus specific IgM.
IgM antibody capture radioimmunoassays were developed to detect coxsackie virus B1-B5 specific IgM. Specific IgM was detected in sera from all patients with coxsackie B virus infections proved by isolation; however, sera from 13/32 patients with rising neutralising antibody titres were negative in the assay. Frequent heterotypic responses were seen among the positive sera. Thirty seven patients...
متن کاملFalse positive Wassermann reaction associated with evidence of enterovirus infection.
A large proportion of high titre Coxsackie B5 complement-fixation tests was detected among sera giving false positive Wassermann reactions during 1969. Echo virus type 9 proved to be the prevailing enterovirus and is one of those which induces the formation of antibody to Coxsackie B5. One case of Echo virus type 9 meningitis is presented which produced a false positive Wassermann reaction and ...
