Lymphosarcoma: Virus-induced Thymic-independent Disease in Mice1
نویسندگان
چکیده
A new murine oncogenic virus has been isolated which induces solid lymphoid tumors within a short latent period. A unique feature of this disease is the lack of thymic involvement. Thymic-independent tumor induction distin guishes this virus from the other experimental murine lymphoid leukemia viruses. In addition, massive meningeal tumors, a myelocytic leukemoid reaction, and no evidence of a disseminated leukemia constitute this disease syndrome.

متن کاملA novel truncated env gene isolated from a feline leukemia virus-induced thymic lymphosarcoma.
We PCR amplified the exogenous feline leukemia virus (FeLV)-related env gene species from lymphosarcomas induced by intradermally administered plasmid DNA of either the prototype FeLV, subgroup A molecular clone, F6A, or a new molecular clone, FeLV-A, Rickard strain (FRA). Of the nine tumors examined, six showed the presence of deleted env species of variable sizes in the tumor DNA. One env mut...
متن کاملResponse of some hydrolases in thymus and lymphosarcoma of rats to injection of adrenal steroid hormones.
The acute degenerative alterations produced in lymphoid tissue of several species following a single injection of glycogenic adrenal cortical steroids, and the concomittant lymphopenia, were described in detail by Dougherty and White."' Subsequently, numerous investigators have been concerned with the biochemical effects of these steroid hormones on lymphoid tissue in efforts to elucidate the m...
متن کاملTumor-associated antigen in bovine and ovine lymphosarcoma.
Specific tumor-associated antigens were found on the membrane and in the cytoplasm of lymph node cells and peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBL) from cattle and sheep with lymphosarcoma by immunofluorescence tests. Materials from 15 cattle with the adult form of lymphosarcoma were examined. Cytoplasmic antigen was detected in fixed tumor cells from all 15 cases and in PBL from 9 cases tested. Memb...
متن کاملTumorigenic potential of a myc-containing strain of feline leukemia virus in vivo in domestic cats.
The oncogenic capacity of a myc-containing strain of feline leukemia virus (FeLV), termed LC-FeLV, has been examined after inoculation of the virus into neonatal kittens. Like other myc-containing strains of FeLV, LC-FeLV may induce with relatively short latency, but does not necessarily induce, thymic lymphosarcoma in viremic animals. Naturally occurring and experimentally induced tumors are T...
