A Study of the Mechanisms of Dna and Thymine Degradation in Cultured Human Cells Infected with a Lipovirus

DNA and thymine degradation on cultured human, mouse, and chick cells were studied. Significant increase in DNA-degrading activity was demonstrated in human embryonic cells killed by freeze-thawing, liver cells killed with mitomycin C, mouse embryonic cells infected with encephalomyocarditis virus, and in all cells killed by the lipovirus. Twelve other viral agents, actinomycin D, and 5-fluorod...

A Lipogenic Toxin Released through the Interaction of a New Cytopathic Agent (lipovirus) and Cultured Human Cells

The release of a toxic product from cultured human cells infected by a new cytopathic agent (the lipovirus) was described. This toxin was dissociable from the infectious particles. It induced sudanophilia of human and mouse cells, an increase in the total fatty acid content, and a change in the major constituent fatty acids. Similar toxin was not demonstrated in cultures infected by the vaccini...

Susceptibility of various cell lines to Neospora caninum tachyzoites cultivation

Neospora caninum is a coccidian protozoan parasite which is a major cause of bovine abortions and neonatal mortality in cattle, sheep, goat and horse. Occasionally, cultured cells are used for isolation and multiplication of the agent in vitro with several purposes. In this study the tachyzoite yields of N. caninum were compared in various cell cultures as the host cell lines. Among the cell cu...

On the Nature of the "lipovirus"

Experiments designed to elucidate the nature of the "lipovirus" are described. The development of characteristic nuclear lesions in human cells in vitro depended on the presence of an ameboid cell in the inoculum. The spatial separation of the ameboid cells from the human cells by a membrane filter 150 micro in thickness was sufficient to prevent the development of nuclear lesions. Nuclear lesi...

Immunofluorescent Studies of Human Cell Cultures and Chick Embryos Inoculated with the Ameboid Cell-"lipovirus" Complex

Tissue culture cells of human origin (HeLa, Lich, and AV(3)) were inoculated with the AL complex. By immunofluorescent staining, AL complex antigen was detectable in the cytoplasm of infected cells as punctate fluorescent granules during the early stage and as homogeneous fluorescence during the late stage of infection. By combining fluorescence and phase-contrast microscopy, many infected cell...
