a study of bovid herpesvirus 2 infection in calves inoculated intradermally or intranasally.bovid herpesvirus 2 infection was studied in calves exposed to the virus by intradermal inoculation of the skin of the left cheek or by nasal spray. in either case a localised infection developed and virus replication was shown to occur mostly in the tissues of its primary localisation, i.e. the skin of the left cheek or the nasal mucosa. there were neither secondary lesions, except at the site of virus injection, nor any serious systemic involvement on the part of the animals. the virus was als ...1979233779
enhanced plating efficiency of herpesvirus dna on herpes simplex virus type 1 dna-transformed cells.partial resistance of hamster cells transformed by sheared herpes simplex virus (hsv) dna to superinfection by intact hsv could be overcome by transfection with viral dna's. hsv dna plated more efficiently on hsv type 1 dna-transformed hamster cells than on spontaneously transformed hamster or rabbit cells or on hamster cells transformed by other dna viruses.1979214606
case report: an outbreak of herpesvirus myeloencephalitis in vaccinated horses.in the foaling season of 1977, five vaccinated horses in a standardbred breeding stable were affected with herpesvirus myeloencephalitis. respiratory and abortigenic forms also occurred in other individuals on the premises. equine herpesvirus type 1 was isolated from the brain of one case of myeloencephalitis and from lungs of two aborted fetuses. twelve of 16 horses demonstrated fourfold or greater increases in titres to equine herpesvirus type 1.1979216473
antibody responses to herpesvirus papio antigens in baboons with lymphoma.an epstein-barr virus-related herpesvirus, termed herpesvirus papio (hvp), was isolated from baboons (papio hamadryas) at the institute of experimental pathology and therapy, sukhumi, ussr, where there is a continuing outbreak of lymphoma. in the present study sera from diseased baboons and from age- and sex-matched control animals were examined for antibodies to hvp antigens. results showed that animals with lymphoid disease had antibodies to hvp virus capsid, early, soluble, and nuclear antige ...1979216640
enhanced oncornavirus expression in marek's disease tumors from specific-pathogen-free chickens.an oncornavirus was recovered from cell cultures of kidney tumors from specific-pathogen-free chickens inoculated with marek's disease herpesvirus (mdhv). the mdhv inoculum was free of infectious avian leukosis virus (alv). direct examination of a variety of tissues from mdhv-inoculated chickens demonstrated increased levels of alv-specific rna compared to tissues from diluent-inoculated (control) chickens. dna from cultured kidney tumor cells annealed to an alv complementary dna probe at the sa ...1979216833
varicella-zoster virus immunizes patas monkeys against simian varicella-like disease.to define further the antigenic relationship between human varicella-zoster virus and herpesviruses which produce varicella-like disease in certain simian species, patas monkeys were inoculated with varicella-zoster virus and then challenged with delta herpesvirus, which uniformly produces severe, clinically apparent disease in susceptible animals. protection against delta herpesvirus was conferred both by hyperimmunization with varicella-zoster virus and by a single immunization with a cell-fre ...1979215708
characterization of an epstein-barr virus-induced dna polymerase.the addition of iododeoxyuridine to p3hr-i cell cultures led to a large increase in both epstein-barr virus (ebv)-induced dna polymerase activity and early antigen-positive cells. this ebv-induced dna polymerase was separated from the cellular alpha- and beta-polymerases by sequential column chromatography on sepharose 6b, deae-cellulose, and phosphocellulose, resulting in partial purification of about 320-fold. the partially purified-ebv dna polymerase could be distinguished from the cellular d ...1979219209
persistence of herpes simplex virus type 1 in rat neurotumor cells.herpes simplex virus type 1 (hsv-1) infection of a rat central nervous system tumor cell line led to almost complete destruction of the cells. cells that survived the infection could be isolated and shown to produce infectious hsv particles for variable lengths of time in culture ranging from 20 to 57 passages. even though infectious virus production eventually ceased, the cell lines continued to produce herpes-specified proteins as measured by immunological techniques. these cells also showed h ...1979219234
no homology detectable between marek's disease virus (mdv) dna and herpesvirus of the turkey (hvt) dna.the relation of four different strains of mdv and two strains of hvt was analyzed by gel electrophoresis of viral dna digested by various restriction endonucleases and by filter hybridization of viral dna with complementary rna. the four mdv strains showed fragment patterns completely different from those of hvt upon digestion of the viral dna with bam h i, eco r i, hind iii, hpa, i, and xho and separation of fragments on agarose gels. the cleavage patterns of the four mdv strains showed great s ...1979219323
respiratory viruses in hospital patients on the witwatersrand. a 7-year study.virological investigations were carried out on 4 151 patients with respiratory disease hospitalized between may 1966 and april 1972. the groups examined were black and white children and black miners. influenza viruses were more common among malnourished black children and tended to cause more severe disease. this was also true of adenovirus and herpesvirus hominis type 1 infections. adenoviruses appear to be secondary invaders, frequently after a measles or influenza attack. a generalized epide ...1979219551

persistence of herpes simplex virus types 1 and 2 in infected individuals.during a 23-month period, 18 patients with facial or genital herpetic lesions were examined; culture specimens from each patient were obtained three times per week for virologic studies. the isolated viruses were identified, and the average duration of herpesvirus in lesions was determined. herpes simplex virus type 1 (hsv-1) was isolated from facial lesions for a mean duration of 3 1/2 days. in contrast, herpes simplex virus type 2 (hsv-2) was isolated from genital lesions for a mean duration o ...1979219784
ascending infection following cervicovaginal exposure to herpesvirus hominis type ii.an animal model is presented that demonstrates that following cervicovaginal inoculation, infective doses of herpesvirus hominis type ii induce a form of herpetic encephalitis. immunofluorescent results indicate that there is both neural and hematogenous spread of the herpes infection. the possible role of a latent viral infection in the genesis of an acute disease of the central nervous system is investigated in this experimental system.1979375146
clinical course and diagnosis of genital herpes simplex virus infection and evaluation of topical surfactant therapy.a prospective study of 37 men and 32 women with culture-proved genital herpes simplex virus (hsv) infection was undertaken to characterize the clinical manifestations of the disease and effects of topical therapy with nonoxynol 9, a nonionic surfactant active in vitro against hsv. the duration of pain, lesions, and virus shedding was significantly longer in initial than in recurrent genital hsv infection. cervical hsv shedding occurred in 11 of 13 initial infections versus two of 19 recurrences ...1979375733
atheroarteriosclerosis induced by infection with a herpesvirus.atheroarteriosclerosis closely resembling that in humans was induced in normocholesterolemic and hypercholesterolemic chickens by infection with marek's disease herpesvirus (mdv). four comparably sized groups of chickens were used. each group was initially fed a diet relatively poor in cholesterol. group i and ii were inoculated intratracheally at 2 days of age with mdv. at 15 weeks, one group of virus-infected chickens (group ii) and one group of uninfected controls (group iv) were fed a 2% cho ...1979382868
