Avian Leucosis Virus-Host Interaction: The Involvement of Host Factors in Viral Replication
Avian leukosis virus (ALV) causes various diseases associated with tumor formation and decreased fertility. Moreover, ALV induces severe immunosuppression, increasing susceptibility to other microbial infections and the risk of failure in subsequent ...

Current understanding of lymphoproliferative disease virus in wild turkeys
Lymphoproliferative disease virus (LPDV) is a retrovirus that can cause a spectrum of disease in wild turkeys (Meleagris gallopavo), from subclinical infection to lymphoid tumors. We reviewed the literature to summarize our current understanding of LPDV, including disease presentation, surveillance, impact on fitness, spatiotemporal distribution, and ...

Hamster leukemia virus: lack of endogenous DNA synthesis and unique structure of its DNA polymerase [PDF]
Infectious hamster leukemia virus (HaLV) contains a DNA polymerase different from those of murine and avian viruses. No endogenous reaction directed by the 60 to 70S RNA of HaLV could be demonstrated in detergenttreated HaLV virions, nor could the ...

Isolation of Subgroup J Avian Leukosis Virus in Korea
Two subgroup J avian leukosis viruses (ALVs) were isolated from broiler breeder flocks, in which myeloid leukosis had occurred. The isolates could be classified as subgroup J ALV by the positive reaction in polymerase chain reaction (PCR) with primers specific for subgroup J ALV. Two isolates replicated in chicken embryo fibroblast (CEF) cells from the

ABSTRACT The dorsal and ventral hippocampus have distinct processing properties, but it remains unclear if interneuron subtypes differ in connectivity along the dorsoventral axis. Oriens lacunosum‐moleculare (OLM) interneurons, identified by the Chrna2 gene, are known to regulate memory processes differently along this axis. OLMɑ2 cells bidirectionally

Risk of Mortality From Esophageal Cancer Among US Poultry Workers, 1950−2019
ABSTRACT Background While research suggests poultry industry workers have an increased risk of cancer mortality, little is known about their risk of esophageal cancer mortality. We investigated the association between working with poultry and esophageal cancer mortality while concurrently investigating other occupational and nonoccupational risk ...

Detection of avian leukosis virus using polymerase chain reaction and enzyme linked immunosorbent assay [PDF]
The applications of polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) in detecting avian leukosis virus (ALV) subgroups A and J were studied in a flock of breeder chickens. Out of 74 chickens tested 9, 36, 13 and 16 were found
