Response to wing-web challenge of Rous sarcoma virus subgroups in some chicken breeds.
نویسنده
چکیده
Response to wing-web challenge (WWC) of Rous sarcoma virus (RSV) subgroups was studied in 4-8 weeks old chicks of a light breed, a heavy breed and a cross between an indigenous black plumage Bantam fowl and Australorp breed. Wing-web tumor (WWT) began to develop within one week in response to virus subgroups A (BS-RSV) and C [RSV (RAV-49)] challenge. In chicks challenged with subgroup D [RSV (RAV-50)] virus it took a minimum of 4 weeks for development of WWT. Positive response to WWC by subgroups A, C and D virus was 84%, 100% and 52%, respectively. The duration of exhibition of positive response was maximum for subgroup A virus, followed by subgroup D and minimum for subgroup C virus.

Immune response and resistance to Rous sarcoma virus challenge of chickens immunized with cell-associated glycoproteins provided with a recombinant avian leukosis virus.
The Rous-associated virus 1 env gene, which encodes the envelope gp85 and gp37 glycoproteins, was isolated and inserted in place of the v-erbB oncogene into an avian erythroblastosis virus-based vector, carrying the neo resistance gene substituted for the v-erbA oncogene, to generate the pNEA recombinant vector. A helper-free virus stock of the pNEA vector was produced on an avian transcompleme...

The specificity of the humoral response of chickens to avian tumour viruses (ATV) was investigated by reacting ATV-immune sera with Triton X-100 extracts of uninfected, infected and transformed chicken embryo fibroblasts. Analysis of these immune reactions by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis revealed that avian leukosis virus-challenged and Rous sarcoma virus-challenged chickens recognized on...

On primary infection with the Bryan strain of Rous sarcoma virus (RSV), the growth curve of the virus in the brain of Japanese quail was similar to that observed in chicks and turkey poults. Infectious virus disappeared from the brain after inoculation. After an eclipse period during which no virus was detectable, infectious virus began to appear at 2 days and reached maximal titers in the brai...
متن کاملsrc-specific immune regression of Rous sarcoma virus-induced tumors.
We have developed an oncogene-specific tumor regression system in chickens. Injection s.c. of chicken wing webs with either rASV1702 or rASV157, mutants of Rous sarcoma virus (RSV) that express nonmyristolyated src product containing novel N-terminal domains, results in noninvasive fibrosarcomas that regress fully. The ability of challenge infections with wild-type RSV to form tumors is suppres...
متن کاملTissue Distribution of the Rous Sarcoma Virus during the Incubation Period
The Rous chicken sarcoma and its causative virus have been intensively studied since Peyton Rous first reported the transmissibility of the tumor by a filtrable agent (10). I t is known that Rous sarcoma virus (RSV) can propagate in tissues other than tumor. Groupe and Rauscher (4) demonstrated progressive propagation in chicken brain after intracerebral inoculation. Groupe et al. (5) found vir...
