چکیده

Permissiveness of blood-derived caprine monocytes to infection by caprine arthritis-encephalitis virus increased during in vitro cultivation and differentiation into macrophages, as evidenced by immunofluorescence and release of extracellular infectious virus. The degree of cell susceptibility to virus infection varied among individual goats, independent of age or breed. Caprine arthritis-encephalitis virus infection of macrophages in vitro resulted in no alteration of five characteristic functional activities.

Infection of monocyte/macrophages by human T lymphotropic virus type III.

Normal blood-derived monocyte/macrophages were found to be susceptible to infection in vitro by human T lymphotropic virus type III (HTLV-III), the etiologic agent of the acquired immunodeficiency syndrome. In addition, HTLV-III was recovered from monocyte/macrophages of patients infected with this virus. The above findings raise the possibility that HTLV-III-infected monocyte/macrophages may s...

Lack of enhancement of caprine arthritis encephalitis virus infection in monocyte-derived macrophage cultures by sera from goats that developed severe arthritis after vaccination and virus challenge.

We examined sera from goats that developed more rapid and severe clinical disease after vaccination with inactivated caprine arthritis encephalitis virus (CAEV) and virus challenge for CAEV infection-enhancing antibodies. Sera from one control and two vaccinated goats were examined for neutralization or enhancement of virus infection in caprine macrophages. Macrophage cultures were incubated wi...

Isolation and characterization of caprine arthritis encephalitis virus in goats from Poland.

The caprine arthritis-encephalitis virus (CAEV) was isolated from monocyte-derived macrophages (M/M), but not from PBMC of seropositive goats by co-cultivation with goat synovial membrane cells. Out of eight M/M co-cultures, CAEV was evidenced by the syncytia formation and presence of proviral DNA in two and four cultures, respectively. Two virus isolates from co-cultures showing cytopathic eff...

Priming with tat-deleted caprine arthritis encephalitis virus (CAEV) proviral DNA or live virus protects goats from challenge with pathogenic CAEV.

We previously reported that infection of goats with caprine arthritis encephalitis virus (CAEV) tat- proviral DNA or virus results in persistent infection, since the animals seroconverted and direct virus isolation from cultures of blood-derived macrophages was positive. In this study we wanted to determine whether goats injected with CAEV tat- proviral DNA or virus were protected against chall...

Humoral immune response to caprine arthritis-encephalitis virus in goat herds

Caprine arthritis-encephalitis (CAE) is an infectious contagious disease of goats caused by single-stranded RNA virus belonging to the family Retroviridae genus Lentivirus [1]. Caprine arthritis-encephalitis virus infects monocytes where, thanks to the enzyme – reverse transcriptase – it changes into DNA provirus and becomes integrated into the host genome [2]. Such latent infection is life-lon...
