Characterization of B1-cells during experimental leukomogenesis
Background. Bovine leukemia causes a significant polyclonal expansion of CD5+ , IgM+ B lymphocytes, known as persistent lymphocytosis (PL), in approximately 30% of infected cattle.

In vivo characterization of the BLV miRNA cluster [PDF]
Bovine leukemia virus (BLV), a B-lymphotropic oncogenic retrovirus sharing common biological and structural features with the human T-cell leukemia virus I and II (HTLV-I and II), is the etiologic agent of enzootic bovine leucosis. One major feature of the BLV infection is the absence of viremia.

Bovine leukemia virus (BLV) affects the health and productivity of cattle. The virus causes abnormal immune function and immunosuppression. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are involved in gene expression, having been associated with stress and immune response, tumor ...

BLV-CoCoMo-qPCR-3: Improved BLV-CoCoMo-qPCR for Bovine Leukemia Virus Detection by Mixing Probes Targeting all BLV Variants [PDF]
Abstract Background: The bovine leukemia virus (BLV) is the causative agent of enzootic bovine leukosis, the most common neoplastic disease in cattle. The proviral load (PVL) is an important index for estimating disease progression. Previously, we developed a quantitative real-time PCR (qPCR) assay to measure the PVL of BLV using coordination ...

Epidemiological features of BLV natural infection [PDF]
Dairy farms are heavily infected with Bovine Leukemia Virus (BLV) in Argentina and many other countries, where a control strategy should be design based on the behavior of natural. We conducted a series of studies with the aim to better understand the epidemiology of BLV. Infected new born calves were present in 3 studied farms (8.3%-11%).
