Bovine leukemia virus (BLV) was studied in naturally-infected cattle to clarify the cellular tropism of the virus at different stages of disease and obtain further evidence of a genetic basis for the development of ...

Macrophages derived in vitro from bone marrow progenitor cells (BMDM) under the influence of CSF-1 or GM-CSF were compared for immune function. CSF-1- and GM-CSF-derived BMDM did not differ in their ability to kill L929 ...

Additional studies identified phenotypic-specific effects of QTL on AOD. Interaction analysis showed that multiple loci may affect a particular phenotype including loci linked to other phenotypes and suggested that some ...

We identified 21 regions of the mouse genome that control EAE susceptibility, disease subtype, and clinical or histological disease parameters. Our results suggest that different clinical subtypes of EAE are immunogenetically ...

A minimal requirement in investigations of the behavior of the idiotypic network during immunization is the ability to quantitate both the idiotypic (Ab1) and antiidiotypic (Ab2) responses. Quantitation of Ab2 in serum is ...
