herpesvirus-associated epidermal hyperplasia in fish (carp). 1978751904
on the etiological role of herpesvirus ovis in jaagsiekte.serologically related ovine herpesviruses have been isolated independently by various workers in different countries from adenomatous lung tissue of sheep or cell cultures derived from it. although the disease can be transmitted with lung homogenates and with cell cultures, transmission attempts with virus alone failed. iudr treatment of tumour-cell cultures and co-cultivation or fusion with cells permissive for virus replication induced antigens which react with some sera from tumour-bearing an ...1978751905
phosphonoacetic acid in the treatment of simian varicella.phosphonoacetic acid inhibited replication of simian varicella virus (delta herpesvirus) in tissue culture. the drug was tested in patas monkeys 40 h after infection with delta herpesvirus. a total of 200 mg/kg per day was given intramuscularly, divided into two doses every day for a total of 10 days. the treated monkeys were protected from clinical illness, and delta herpesvirus was not recovered from their lymphocytes. complement-fixing and neutralizing antibody titers were significantly lower ...1978213014
therapeutic effect of trisodium phosphonoformate on cutaneous herpesvirus infection in guinea pigs.when applied topically, trisodium phosphonoformate (pfa) displayed activity against established cutaneous herpesvirus infections in guinea pigs similar to that exhibited by the closely related phosphonoacetic acid (paa); however, unlike paa, pfa was not locally skin irritating. the therapeutic benefits of topical application of pfa were clearly evident when application was delayed for 48 h after virus inoculation, at which time lesions were well developed. the therapeutic effect was dependent on ...1978213015
widespread occurrence in australian marsupials of neutralizing antibodies to a herpesvirus from a parma wallaby.serum neutralizing antibodies to a parma wallaby herpesvirus (pwhv) have been detected in a wide range of marsupials from different locations across australia, including several islands. a study of 242 animals (mostly macropods) sampled in the wild showed that 23% had antibodies; a significantly higher frequency (41%) of 116 animals in captivity had antibodies, which were generally at higher levels than those of animals in the wild. antibodies to pwhv were also detected among parma wallabies fro ...1978213046
augmentation of the in vitro mitogenic response of owl monkey peripheral blood lymphocytes by levamisole and loss of this effect with the development of herpesvirus saimiri-induced lymphoma.levamisole (lms) has been shown to be capable of enhancing the proliferative response of normal owl monkey peripheral blood lymphocytes (pbl) to pha, and, to a lesser degree, of increasing the level of spontaneous dna synthesis. with the development of herpesvirus saimiri-induced lymphoma, these stimulatory responses were lost. lms was not capable of stimulating tumour cells to normal functions, or of reversing the disease-induced suppressed functions on normal cells.1978213219

activation of endogenous type c virus in balb/c mouse cells by herpesvirus dna.several virion and nonvirion dnas were tested for the ability to activate endogenous type c virus in balb/c-derived mouse cells using the calcium precipitation technique. the dnas from all herpesviruses tested activated xenotropic type c virus synthesis. these included dnas from herpes simplex virus types 1 and 2, epstein-barr virus, human cytomegalovirus, sa8 virus, infectious bovine rhinotracheitis virus, pseudorabies virus, and herpes saimiri virus (m-dna). in contrast, dnas from vaccinia vir ...1978212761
episomal viral dna in herpesvirus saimiri-transformed lymphoid cell lines.structural analysis of episomal viral genomes from two herpesvirus saimiri (hvs)-transformed tumour cell lines (no. 1670 and 70n2) showed that both types of episomes have a higher molecular weight than linear virion dna. the arrangement of unique (l) and repetitive (h) dna in no. 1670 episomes was studied by partial denaturation mapping. part of the l-sequences present in linear virion dna was found to be missing, part was found to be duplicated in the episomes. the episomal l-dna regions were c ...1978221324
herpesvirus papio: state of viral dna in baboon lymphoblastoid cell lines.baboon lymphoblastoid cell lines (lcl) transformed with herpesvirus papio were evaluated for the state of hvp dna in the cells by caesium chloride density-gradient centrifugation and dna-crna filter hybridization. five hvp producer cultures and one non-producer culture were studied and non-integrated and integrated hvp dna were detected in all producer cultures whereas only integrated hvp dna could be demonstrated in the non-producer lcl. non-integrated hvp dna had a density of 1.715--1.716 g/cm ...1978221325
altered biological and biochemical properties of a phosphonoacetate-resistant mutant of herpesvirus of turkeys.a phosphonoacetate (pa)-resistant mutant of the herpesvirus of turkeys (hvt) was isolated and characterized. the mutant (hvtpa) replicates in growth medium containing 300 microgram/ml of pa and shows in vitro temperature sensitivity at 41 degrees c (its 37 degrees c/41 degrees c efficiency of replication is about 5). hvtpa replicates poorly in chickens and fails to provide complete protection against mdv challenge. the hvtpa-induced dna polymerase has an apparent inhibition constant for pa 10 ti ...1978221331

oncogenic transformation of non-permissive murine cells by viable equine herpesvirus type 1 (ehv-1) and ehv-1 dna.primary cultures of balb/c mouse embryo fibroblasts infected with as much as 100 pfu per cell of ehv-1 do not exhibit cytopathology or synthesize detectable amounts of ehv-1 specific rna, dna, or infectious virus. addition of 1--2 microgram of non-fragmented ehv-1 dna as a co-precipitate with calcium phosphate to monolayers of such non-permissive mouse cells resulted in the appearance, after 4--6 weeks, of foci of piled-up, morphologically altered cells. cell lines established from such transfor ...1978221355
enhanced efficiency of transfection of hsv dna in hsv-1 dna-transformed hamster cells.the efficiency of transfection, i.e., the number of plaques per microgram of dna, was compared for herpes simplex virus (hsv) type 1 and type 2, and herpesvirus eidolon (antigenically unrelated to hsv) dnas in hsv dna-transformed cells (eh/a44) and control hamster cells (eht). the efficiency of transfection of hsv-1 and hsv-2 dnas was significantly higher in eh/a44 cells than in eht cells, showing that an early step in hsv infection was involved in the partial resistance of hsv dna-transformed c ...1978221357
characterization of the replicative structures of the dna of a herpesvirus (pseudorabies).the replication of prv dna occurs in two phases, early and late. during the early stages of infection newly synthesized dna is associated with molecules sedimenting with an s-value up to two-fold greater than that of mature viral dna. these molecules represent unit-size linear or circular molecules, as well as small concatemers in the process of replication. initiation of replication occurs at a site situated 20 micron from one of the ends as well as at or near the end of the molecules. at later ...1978221363

vaccination against diseases associated with herpesvirus infections in animals: a review.an account is presented of the development and use of herpesvirus vaccines in domestic animals, with particular reference to those viruses causing cytolytic rather than oncogenic infections. the chief infections covered are aujeszky's disease (ad or pseudorabies), infectious bovine rhinotracheitis (ibr) and equine rhinopneumonitis (equine abortion; ehv-1). others mentioned are feline viral rhinotracheitis and malignant catarrhal fever of cattle. both live-modified and inactivated vaccines are wi ...1978221416
the interaction between herpesvirus and oncornavirus of guineapigs: in vitro and in vivo studies.in vitro, cultured guineapig doubly infected with both guineapig herpesvirus (gphlv) and guineapig oncornavirus (gpov) revealed pseudotype virus particles with oncornavirus morphology coated with gphlv antigen as detected by immunoferritin electron microscopy. in vivo, infection of hartley guineapigs with both gphlv and gpov induced hyperplasia in lymph-nodes in a higher percentage of animals than in those that received only one virus type. in addition, experimental gphlv infection of strain 2 g ...1978221417
effect of ara-t on the replication of herpes simplex virus, varicella-zoster virus and cytomegalovirus.the thymidine analogue, 1-beta-arabinofuranosylthymine (ara-t), has previously been found to selectively inhibit herpes simplex virus (hsv) replication. at a relatively non-toxic concentration (50 microgram/ml), ara-t reduced hsv yields by a factor of 10,000-100,000. ara-t was also effective in inhibiting the replication of variecella-zoster virus (vzv) in vitro in human embryo fibroblasts, completely preventing vzv-specific cytopathic effects (cpe). ara-t reduced the cell-free virus and plaque- ...1978221418
[isolation and identification of the infectious bovine rhinotracheitis virus in a bovine fetus kidney (ibr/ipv)].the authors describe the isolation and identification of a virus from bovine fetal kidney cells maintained in culture for 30 to 45 days. the virus was characterized as a herpesvirus of the infectious bovine rhinotracheitis in cell culture by the evidence of cytopathogenic effect in bovine kidney and testis cultures and serologically by a neutralization test using rabbit anti-infectious bovine rhinotracheitis sera.1978224840
replication of type i herpes simplex virus in primary cultures of hairy cell leukemic leukocytes.the ability of leukemic leukocytes to support the replication of herpes simplex virus (hsv) was studied. mononuclear leukocytes (mnl) from the peripheral blood of patients with a variety of lymphoid leukemias were isolated on ficoll-hypaque gradients and infected with hsv at a multiplicity of infection of 5 to 10. no virus growth was detected in cells from patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (9), acute lymphocytic leukemia (1), or lymphosarcoma cell leukemia (2), hsv replication did occur ...1978202167
herpesvirus ateles dna and its homology with herpesvirus saimiri nucleic acid.analysis of the structural organization of herpesvirus ateles dna shows that two types of viral dna molecules are encapsidated in virions: (i) m-genomes, which contain 74% light sequences (l-dna, 38% guanine plus cytosine) and 26% highly repetitive heavy sequences (h-dna, 75% guanine plus cytosine), and (ii) defective h-genomes, which consist exclusively of repetitive h-dna. the structure of m-genomes from h. ateles consists of an l-dna region of about 70 x 10(6) daltons inserted between h-dna t ...1978202747
