چکیده

A resistance locus to leukemogenesis in mice by A-RadLV (a variant of the radiation leukemia virus) is described. This locus, Rrv-1, was mapped to subregions I-A, I-B, and I-J of the H-2 complex. It is suggested that Rrv-1 may be in complementation with a second locus to the right of it, between Rrv-1 and H-2D. This localization and the complementation of the two loci for resistance are characteristics similar to Ir genes, and indicate a possible relationship between the genetic regulation of immune responsiveness and susceptibility to leukemia.

Exon 2 Ovar-DRB1 gene polymorphism in the Iranian Sangsari sheep

The major histocompatibility complex (MHC) plays a central role in the control of disease resistance and immune response. Extensive genetic diversity in MHC genes provides a valuable source for genetic improvement, via selection, in many domestic animals. Exon 2 of the class II MHC, termed Ovar-DRB1 in domestic sheep (Ovis aries), has been suggested as important disease resistance and immune re...

The MHC of the mouse (H-2 complex) exerts a marked influence on resistance against murine viral lymphomagenesis (1-7). Resistance genes to various murine leukemia virus

The MHC of the mouse (H-2 complex) exerts a marked influence on resistance against murine viral lymphomagenesis (1-7). Resistance genes to various murine leukemia virus (MuLV) 1 isolates have been mapped (1-6) to several regions within the H-2 complex, i.e. the K, I-A, I-E, S, and/or D regions. In one study (8), complementation with respect to resistance between the I-A and I-E regions was obse...

Effects of dietary astaxanthin on the immune response, resistance to white spot syndrome virus and transcription of antioxidant enzyme genes in Pacific white shrimp Litopenaeus vannamei

Three different experiments were conducted to study the effect of dietary astaxanthin on the immune response, resistance to white spot syndrome virus (WSSV) and transcription of antioxidant enzyme genes in Pacific white shrimp Litopenaeus vannamei. Each experiment included one triplicate treatment group (fed with 80 mg/kg astaxanthin supplemented diet) and one triplicate control group (fed with...

Genetic control of cell-mediated responsiveness to an AKR tumor- associated antigen: mapping of the locus involved to the I region of the H-2 complex

The role of H-2-linked genes in controlling resistance to murine leukemia viruses has been studied by measuring the cell-mediated immune response of F1 hybrid mice (between AKR and various C3H and C57BL/10 derived, H-2 congenic strains) to an AKR tumor cell line, BW5147. The studies have shown that the ability to generate a primary or secondary cell-mediated response to an AKR tumor cell antige...
