conclusions the most important factor in childhood acute gastroenteritis in east anatolia is the rotavirus. rotavirus and adenovirus antigens should be routinely investigated as a factor in fresh stool samples for the accurate diagnosis and treatment of gastroenteritis in children in the winter and autumn months. patients and methods the records of stool sample analyses for 1154 patients admitt...

The fine structure of the human wart virus is compared with that of the Shope rabbit papilloma virus. The distribu tion of the viral antigens within the human wart, as determined by immunofluorescence, is described and compared with the distribution of the viral antigens in the rabbit papilloma. The distribution of viral particles in the two lesions, as determined by electron microscopy, is als...

Sin Nombre virus (SNV), a member of the Hantavirus genus, causes acute viral pneumonia in humans and is thought to persistently infect mice. The deer mouse, Peromyscus maniculatus, has been identified as the primary reservoir host for SNV. To understand SNV infection of P. maniculatus, we examined wild deer mice for localization of viral antigens and nucleic acid. Morphologic examination consis...

Unilateral inoculation of herpes simplex virus Type 1 (KOS strain) into the anterior chamber of BALB/c eyes produces an ocular disease with a distinctive differential pattern of retinal pathology. Specifically, the retina of the inoculated eye remains histologically intact, whereas the contralateral retina becomes necrotic. We demonstrate that retinal necrosis in opposite uninjected eyes direct...

A large body of evidence exists demonstrating that the recognition of viral antigens by cytotoxic thymus (T) -derived lymphocytes (CTL) 1 is virus specific and restricted by gene products encoded in the major histocompatibility complex (1). In the mouse, these restricting genes have been mapped to the H-2K and H-2D regions (1). Indeed, a single mutation in one of these loci can result in failur...

Radioimmunoassay capable of measuring mouse mammary tumor virus (MMTV) 52,000 M.W. envelope glycoprotein (gp52) and 27,000 M.W. protein (p27) have been used to quantitatively compare plasma concentrations of these viral antigens in mice bearing spontaneous mammary tumors. Although gp52 was detected in the plasma of all tumor-bearing mice tested, p27 was detected in only a portion of tumor-beari...
