چکیده

Methylation of Marek's disease virus serotype 1 (MDV1) DNA in both productively and latently infected cells was examined by restriction endonuclease analyses with the isoschizomeric pair HpaII and MspI. The latent MDV1 DNA in T-lymphoblastoid cell lines established from chicken T-lymphomas was considerably methylated, whereas methylation of the virus DNA sequences was not detected in productively infected cells.

Methylation of Marek's Disease Virus DNA in Chicken T-lymphoblastoid Cell Lines

Methylation of Marek's disease virus serotype 1 (MDV 1) DNA in both productively and latently infected cells was examined by restriction endonuclease analyses with the isoschizomeric pair HpalI and MspI. The latent MDV1 DNA in T-lymphoblastoid cell lines established from chicken T-lymphomas was considerably methylated, whereas methylation of the virus DNA sequences was not detected in productiv...

Monoclonal antibody to chicken fetal antigen on Marek's disease lymphoblastoid cell line MDCC-MSB1.

A monoclonal antibody (2H3) to chicken fetal antigen (CFA) expressed on the cell surface of the Marek's disease lymphoblastoid cell line MDCC-MSB1 was generated. 2H3 reacted specifically with various cells from chicken embryos, especially with fetal red blood cells, fetal bursa-derived lymphocytes, fetal liver cells, and embryo fibroblasts but not with fetal peripheral blood lymphocytes. 2H3 re...

DNMT gene expression and methylome in Marek's disease resistant and susceptible chickens prior to and following infection by MDV.

Marek's disease (MD) is characterized as a T cell lymphoma induced by a cell-associated α-herpesvirus, Marek's disease virus type 1 (MDV1). As with many viral infectious diseases, DNA methylation variations were observed in the progression of MD; these variations are thought to play an important role in host-virus interactions. We observed that DNA methyltransferase 3a (DNMT3a) and 3b (DNMT3b) ...

Recombinant Marek's disease virus (MDV)-derived lymphoblastoid cell lines: regulation of a marker gene within the context of the MDV genome.

Marek's disease is a herpesvirus (Marek's disease virus [MDV])-induced pathology of chickens characterized by paralysis and the rapid appearance of T-cell lymphomas. Lymphoblastoid cell lines (LBCLs) derived from MDV-induced tumors have served as models of MDV latency and transformation. We have recently reported the construction of mutant MDVs having a deletion (M. S. Parcells et al., J. Virol...

DNA Methylation Fluctuation Induced by Virus Infection Differs between MD-resistant and -susceptible Chickens

Marek's disease (MD) is a lymphoproliferative disease induced by Marek's disease virus (MDV) infection. To augment vaccination measures in MD control, host genetic resistant to MD becomes obviously more and more important. To elucidate the mechanism of MD-resistance, most of researches were focused on the genetic differences between resistant and susceptible chickens. However, epigenetic featur...
