Regulation of Expression and Latency in BLV and HTLV
Human T-lymphotrophic virus type 1 (HTLV-1) and Bovine leukemia virus (BLV) belong to the Deltaretrovirus genus. HTLV-1 is the etiologic agent of the highly aggressive and currently incurable cancer adult T-cell leukemia (ATL) and a neurological disease ...

Detection and genotyping of bovine leukemia virus (BLV) in Vietnamese cattle
Bovine leukemia virus (BLV) belongs to the genus, Deltaretrovirus of the family, Retroviridae and it is the causative agent of enzootic bovine leukosis. The prevalence of BLV in three provinces in the Red River Delta Region in the North of Vietnam, Hanoi,

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 ...

Effect of bovine leukemia virus infection and proviral load on the systemic profile of dairy heifers during the transition period [PDF]
: This study aimed to evaluate the effect of bovine leukemia virus (BLV) on the systemic profile of naturally infected dairy heifers during the transition period. Pregnant Holstein and Jersey heifers (n=24) were distributed in pairs into two experimental

Dynamics of perinatal bovine leukemia virus infection [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Bovine leukemia virus (BLV) is highly endemic in many countries, including Argentina. As prevention of the spread from infected animals is of primary importance in breaking the cycle of BLV transmission, it is important to know the ...

No genetic evidence for involvement of Deltaretroviruses in adult patients with precursor and mature T-cell neoplasms [PDF]
Background The Deltaretrovirus genus comprises viruses that infect humans (HTLV), various simian species (STLV) and cattle (BLV). HTLV-I is the main causative agent in adult T-cell leukemia in endemic areas and some of the simian T-cell lymphotropic ...

Phylogenetic Analysis of South African Bovine Leukaemia Virus (BLV) Isolates
Bovine leukaemia virus (BLV) causes chronic lymphoproliferative disorder and fatal lymphosarcoma in cattle, leading to significant economic losses in the beef and dairy industries. BLV is endemic globally and eleven genotypes have been identified.
