Evidence that the spontaneous blastogenesis of lymphocytes from bovine leukemia virus-infected cattle is viral antigen specific.

R M Thorn, P Gupta, S J Kenyon, J F Ferrer.   

Abstract

Cattle lymphocytes cultured for 3 days were found to spontaneously incorporate thymidine (3STI). Under optimal conditions of culture, the median magnitude of 3STI activity in lymphocytes from bovine leukemia virus (BLV)-infected cattle was higher than that of BLV-free cattle, but the ranges of the values overlapped. However, the 3STI activity of most BLV-infected cattle was specifically inhibited by serum containing BLV antibodies, whereas the 3STI activity of BLV-free cattle was not. The 3STI inhibitor copurified with immunoglobulin, and its activity could be absorbed with BLV. Rabbit anti-BLV serum inhibited 3STI, but rabbit anti-BLV p25 did not. These results indicate that BLV infection induces or expands a BLV-specific lymphocyte population. Spontaneous blastogenesis may be indicative of an immune response which controls virus spread.
