| surface characteristics of cells from different layers of keratinized and non-keratinized oral epithelia. | portions of clinically healthy non-keratinized and keratinized oral epithelia were removed from adult vervet monkeys (cercopithecus aethiops). the epithelium was separated from the underlying lamina propria by trypsin digestion, following which the epithelial cells were separated from the various epithelial layers. these were examined with the light and scanning electron microscope. cells from non-keratinized epithelia have surface microplications while those from keratinized epithelia show m ... | 1975 | 124340 |
| [demonstration by immunofluorescence of somatotropic cells and prolactin cells in the monkeys erythrocebus patas, cercopithecus aethiops and papio hamadryas]. | using antibodies against human sth and ovine prolactine, it is possible to identify somatotropic and prolactin cells in the pituitary anterior lobe of three species of monkeys: erythrocebus patas, cercopithecus aethiops and papio hamadryas. the somatotropic cells are numerous in both adult and infant male or female monkeys, especially in the lateral lobes of the pituitary gland. the prolactin cells can be distinguished in all pituitaries studied, regardless age or sex; indeed there are more nume ... | 1976 | 140737 |
| [demonstration by immunofluorescence of somatostatin cells in the islets of langerhans in 3 species of monkeys]. | indirect immunofluorescence technique with anti-somatostatin serum has allowed us to detect somatostatin containing cells in the langerhans' islets of three species of monkeys (macacus irus, papio hamadryas, cercopithecus aethiops). these cells are in close relationship with another cells, but occupy a more central position in the islets. thus, the distribution of somatostatin-containing cells in the monkey's endocrine pancreas has not a similar pattern as in rodent's pancreas; they have a compa ... | 1979 | 160269 |
| [immunofluorescence demonstration of somatostatin-containing cells in the digestive tract of the monkeys irus, macaca papio hamadryas and cercopithecus aethiops]. | indirect immunofluorescence technique with antisomatostatin serum has allowed us to detect somatostatin containing cells in the gastro-intestinal tract of three species of monkeys : macacus irus, papio hamadryas and cercopithecus aethiops. these cells are localized only in the stomach, in the duodenum, and in the jejunum-ileum. no somatostatin cells were encountered in the esophagus and in the colon. the maximum of somatostatin positive cells is localized in the duodenum, as well in the lieberkü ... | 1979 | 161187 |
| virus development in enucleate cells: echovirus, poliovirus, pseudorabies virus, reovirus, respiratory syncytial virus and semliki forest virus. | a group of rna viruses, echovirus, poliovirus, reovirus, respiratory syncytial virus and semliki forest virus have been examined for ability to grow in enucleate african green monkey kidney (bsci) cells. semliki forest virus produced an almost normal yield of virus but poliovirus, echovirus, reovirus and respiratory syncytial virus, although showing clear evidence of virus replication when compared with a nuclear dna virus (pseudorabies virus) gave much lower yields than those from nucleate cell ... | 1975 | 163289 |
| stimulation of adenovirus replication in simian cells in the absence of a helper virus by pretreatment of the cells with iododeoxyuridine. | pretreatment of african green monkey kidney cells with 50 mu g of 5'-iododeoxyruidine (iudr) per ml can modify their susceptibility to the replication of human adenovirus type 7 in the absence of simian virus 40 (sv40) although this enhancement of adenovirus replication is not as efficient as that of the helper sv40 virus. since the number of infectious centers remains unchanged after iudr pretreatment whereas the burst size of virus from each infected cell increases, the iudr appears to allow e ... | 1975 | 163353 |
| stimulation of non-histone chromosomal protein synthesis in simian virus 40-infected simian cells. | the pattern of synthesis of non-histone chromosomal proteins in simian virus (sv) 40-infected african green monkey kidney cells was analyzed by polyacryl-amide gel electrophoresis to see whether the changes in chromosomal protein metabolism are involved in the viral-induced synthesis of cellular dna and mrna. during the prereplicative phase of infection, the rate of histone synthesis was decreased until 15 h postinfection, whereas that of non-histone protein synthesis was increased after 5 h pos ... | 1975 | 163368 |
| virus dna synthesizing ability of t antigen-forming defective sv40 produced by successive undiluted passages. | sv40 stocks prepared by successive undiluted passages in african green monkey kidney (gmk) cells contain particles which produce t antigen but not capsid antigen (t partcles). the dna of the t particles was shown to replicate during abortive infection of gmk cells, as indicated by immunofluorescence assay for antigen forming capacity of virus dna. it was also shown that the synthesis of t particle dna was induced in heterokaryons formed by fusion of 3t3 cells transformed by t particles with susc ... | 1975 | 164518 |
| simian virus 40-related antigens in three human meningiomas with defined chromosome loss. | two out of seven meningiomas tested in early cell cultures by indirect immunofluorescence staining showed simian virus 40 (sv40)-related tumor (t) antigen. in one tumor 90% of the cells were positive. an additional sv40-related antigen (u) was found in 10% of cells of a third tumor. these findings indicate that the meningioma cells showing a positive reaction are transformed by a papova virus that has at least partly the same antigenic properties as sv40 virus. sv40-related viral capsid (v) anti ... | 1975 | 164660 |
| amino acid and sugar transport incells permissively infected with simian virus 40. | transport of alpha-aminoisobutyric acid and 2-deoxy-d-glucose in african green monkey kidney cells was measured 8 to 100 hr following permissive simian virus 40 infection. no differences in transport were detected during the time-period studies, and no significant differences were seen between the apparent michaelis-menten constants of normal and virally infected cells. the absence of transport enhancement in permissive simian virus 40 infection suggests that the augmented transport of viral-tra ... | 1975 | 165886 |
| simian virus 40 dna replication, transcription, and antigen induction during infection with two adenovirus 2-sv40 hybrids that contain the entire sv40 genome. | the ad2++hey hybrid virus population produces simian virus 40 (sv40) efficiently during lytic infection, whereas ad2++ley does not, although both hybrids contain a complete sv40 genome. in this report, we demonstrate the synthesis of nonhydrid sv40 dna in ad2++hey-infected vero cells, but only early sv40 rna is transcribed efficiently in ad2++ley-infected cells. ad2++hey induces sv40 u, t, and v antigens during lytic infection of african green monkey kidney cells, whereas ad2++ley induces only s ... | 1975 | 166206 |
| effect of human leukocyte interferon on vaccinia-and herpes virus-infected cell cultures and monkey corneas. | pretreatment of human fibroblast cultures with human leukocyte interferon (hif, 1,000 iu/ml) resulted in a 24-h delay of virus replication after infection with vaccinia virus and herpes simplex virus type 1 and type 2. additional hif treatment 24 h after infection effectively lowered the maximum yield of viral infectivity. equal results were obtained in simian cells with 3,000 iu of hif per ml. the spread of two cell-bound herpesviruses, varicella zoster virus and medical lake macaque herpesviru ... | 1975 | 166924 |
| temperature-sensitive mutants of simian virus 40 selected by transforming ability. | eight temperature-sensitive mutants of simian virus 40 which transform rat cells at 32.5 c but not at 38.5 c have been isolated. all the mutants were also temperature sensitive for replication in african green monkey kidney cells and five of them were classified into a single complementation group. no mutant incapable of transforming rat cells at either temperature was isolated. | 1975 | 167187 |
| characterization of t antigen in cells infected with a temperature-sensitive mutant of simian virus 40. | t antigen induced in african green monkey kidney cells by a temperature-sensitive mutant of simian virus 40, defective in a function required for cell transformation, was characterized. the number of t antigen-positive cells estimated by an immunofluorescent techniques was almost equal at permissive (32.5 c) and restrictive (38.5 c) temperatures, but was slightly reduced when the infected cells were incubated at a higher temperature (40.5 c). however, a complement fixation test indicated that th ... | 1975 | 167188 |
| specific immune adherence assay for human hepatitis a antibody application to diagnostic and epidemiologic investigations. | a specific immune adherence (ia) test for hepatitis a antibody in human serum was described employing liver extract of marmosets infected with cr326 strain human hepatitis a virus. persons with hepatitis a, but not hepatitis b, developed hepatitis a ia antibody soon after onset of the acute illness and this persisted thereafter. there was very close agreement in the tests for human hepatitis a immune adherence, complement fixing (cf) and neutralizing antibodies. ia antibodies appeared to develop ... | 1975 | 167376 |
| early cytoplasmic vacuolization of african green monkey kidney cells by sv40. | as early as 3--4 hours after infection with sv40 at a high input multiplicity, african green monkey (cercopithecus aethiops) kidney (agmk) cells developed cytoplasmic vacuolization. at 10--20 hours after infection, the vacuolization reached its maximal level, then disappeared and sv40 specific cytopathic change followed. this vacuolization developed before the synthesis of the specific t and v antigens. this early cytoplasmic vacuolization (ecv) was prevented by preincubating the virus with spec ... | 1975 | 167691 |
