First Report of Bovine Leukemia Virus Infection in Yaks (Bos mutus) in China

open access: yesBioMed Research International, Volume 2016, Issue 1, 2016., 2016
Enzootic bovine leukosis (EBL) is a chronic lymphosarcoma disease of cattle caused by bovine leukemia virus (BLV). No information is available concerning the epidemiology of BLV infection in yaks (Bos mutus). One thousand five hundred and eighty‐four serum samples from 610 black yaks and 974 white yaks from Gansu province, northwest China, were ...

Comparative Evaluation of Three Commercial Quantitative Real-Time PCRs Used in Japan for Bovine Leukemia Virus

open access: yesViruses, 2022
Bovine leukemia virus (BLV) is an oncogenic virus belonging to the genus Deltaretrovirus and is the causative agent of enzootic bovine leukosis. Proviral load (PVL) determined by real-time quantitative PCR (qPCR) is now widely used as an indicator of not

Silent pressure: Unveiling spinal lymphoma in horses and its parallels to other species

open access: yesEquine Veterinary Education, Volume 38, Issue 5, Page 231-234, May 2026.
Summary Though the nervous system is an uncommon location for lymphoma, the disease should remain a differential diagnosis in some cases of ataxia in equids. Diagnosis of lymphoma can be challenging, although a combination of cytology, histopathology and immunophenotyping can aid in definitive diagnosis and therefore more accurately guide treatment and

New Insights Into Retroviral Gag-Gag and Gag-Membrane Interactions

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2014
A critical aspect of viral replication is the assembly of virus particles, which aresubsequently released as progeny virus. While a great deal of attention has beenfocused on better understanding this phase of the viral life cycle, many aspects of ...

Effects of Naturally Occurring Mutations in Bovine Leukemia Virus 5′-LTR and Tax Gene on Viral Transcriptional Activity

open access: yesPathogens, 2020
Bovine leukemia virus (BLV) is a deltaretrovirus infecting bovine B cells and causing enzootic bovine leucosis (EBL). The long terminal repeat (LTR) plays an indispensable role in viral gene expression. The BLV Tax protein acts as the main transactivator

Establishment and Characterization of Human Cell Lines Stably Infected With Bovine Leukemia Virus In Vitro Reveals Apoptosis After Latency and Silencing

open access: yesTransboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Bovine leukemia virus (BLV) is the etiological agent of B‐cell leukemia/lymphoma in cattle worldwide. Although previous studies have linked BLV to breast cancer in women, its zoonotic potential remains controversial. Moreover, no previous studies have clearly investigated the BLV latency in human cells.

HIGHLIGHTS ON DISTINCTIVE STRUCTURAL AND FUNCTIONAL PROPERTIES OF HTLV TAX PROTEINS.

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2013
Human T-cell Leukemia Viruses (HTLVs) are complex human retroviruses of the Deltaretrovirus genus. Four types have been identified thus far, with HTLV-1 and HTLV-2 much more prevalent than HTLV-3 or -4 .

Circulating Cell‐Free DNA of Bovine Leukemia Virus: A Promising Biomarker for Enzootic Bovine Leukosis

open access: yesMicrobiology and Immunology, Volume 69, Issue 9, Page 466-476, September 2025.
ABSTRACT Bovine leukemia virus (BLV) causes Enzootic bovine leukosis (EBL) in approximately 1%–5% of infected cattle after a long latent period. Few biomarkers effectively distinguish non‐EBL from EBL cattle. Given the rapid turnover of tumor cells, we hypothesized that cell‐free DNA (cfDNA) in plasma could serve as a more effective biomarker for EBL ...

Seroprevalence and risk factors associated with leukosis in cattle from Villlavicencio, Colombia

open access: yes, 2023
Bovine leukosis is caused by an oncogenic virus of the genus Deltaretrovirus, causing losses associated with decreased production indicators and restrictions on exports of cattle and cattle products.
