Deletion of the meq gene significantly decreases immunosuppression in chickens caused by pathogenic marek's disease virus [PDF]
Background Marek's disease virus (MDV) causes an acute lymphoproliferative disease in chickens, resulting in immunosuppression, which is considered to be an integral aspect of the pathogenesis of Marek's disease (MD).

Marek’s disease virus and skin interactions [PDF]
Marek's disease virus (MDV) is a highly contagious herpesvirus which induces immunosuppression and T-cell lymphoma in chicken. This virus still circulates in flocks despite forty years of vaccination, with important economical losses at the world level.

A novel protein-coding ORF72.2 gene was identified from Marek's disease virus strain CVI988 [PDF]
Marek's disease is a highly contagious disease of poultry characterized by rapid-on set of T-cell lymphomas, which is caused by Marek's disease virus (MDV), but its pathogenic mechanism is still not very clear.

Activated Chicken Gamma Delta T Cells Are Involved in Protective Immunity against Marek’s Disease
Gamma delta (γδ) T cells play a significant role in the prevention of viral infection and tumor surveillance in mammals. Although the involvement of γδ T cells in Marek’s disease virus (MDV) infection has been suggested, their detailed contribution to ...

Analysis of DNA methylation of CD79B in MDV-infected chicken spleen
Marek's disease (MD), an immunosuppressive disease induced by Marek's disease virus (MDV), provides an ideal model for studying diseases caused by a carcinogenic virus. CD79B is a B-cell antigen receptor complex-associated protein β-chain precursor which
