| structural proteins of western equine encephalitis virus: amino acid compositions and n-terminal sequences. | the structural proteins of western equine encephalitis virus, a member of the alphavirus group, have been characterized by the determination of their amino acid compositions and by n-terminal sequence analysis. more than 60 residues of the n-terminal sequences of each of the envelope glycoproteins have been determined. a comparison of these sequences with the previously determined sequences of two related alphaviruses. sindbis virus and semliki forest virus, strongly supports the view that all t ... | 1983 | 6834471 |
| a variant of western equine encephalitis virus with nonglycosylated e3 protein. | a variant clone (at/a125) of western equine encephalitis virus was isolated from a line of mosquito cells persistently infected with a temperature-sensitive parent strain, a125. variant-infected cells produced an altered form of pe2 protein which migrated with a higher electrophoretic mobility than wild type or a125 pe2. the altered pe2, like pe2 of wild type, was precipitated by anti-envelope proteins serum but not by anti-e1 serum. in pulse-chase experiments the altered pe2 protein was shown t ... | 1983 | 6829167 |
| adjuvant activity of a novel metabolizable lipid emulsion with inactivated viral vaccines. | studies were conducted in mice, hamsters, sheep, and two species of nonhuman primates which demonstrate the adjuvant activity of a new metabolizable lipid emulsion with marginally immunogenic doses of formalin-inactivated viral vaccines. the lipid base consists of highly refined peanut oil emulsified in aqueous vaccines with glycerol and lecithin. hamsters and mice inoculated with lipid emulsion plus western or venezuelan equine encephalitis vaccine were significantly more resistant than vaccina ... | 1980 | 6772571 |

| focal neurologic signs in western equine encephalitis. | focal neurologic signs developed in a 75-year-old woman who had presented with encephalitis. a diagnosis of western equine encephalitis was made from serologic findings. although she was improving clinically the patient died from acute dissection of an aortic aneurysm 11 days after admission to hospital. the pathological findings--perivascular infiltrates and multifocal necrosis in the deep grey matter--were consistent with the diagnosis of western equine encephalitis. similar findings in the ba ... | 1984 | 6704848 |

| effect of temperature of extrinsic incubation on the vector competence of culex tarsalis for western equine encephalomyelitis virus. | culex tarsalis was a less competent vector of western equine encephalomyelitis (wee) virus after 2-3 weeks' extrinsic incubation at 32 degrees c than after incubation at 18 degrees or 25 degrees c. the high temperature itself was not directly detrimental to mosquito infection as all mosquitoes were initially infected, but subsequently some females were able to limit viral multiplication and/or dissemination. elevated maintenance temperatures enhanced the expression of modulation, and elevated la ... | 1983 | 6625067 |
| serodiagnosis of western equine encephalitis virus infections: relationships of antibody titer and test to observed onset of clinical illness. | sera from horses and human beings with clinically diagnosed western equine encephalitis (wee) virus infections were tested for hemagglutination-inhibition (hi), complement-fixation (cf), and neutralizing (n) antibody to wee virus. these tests confirmed infection in 43.8% (hi), 56.3% (cf), and 80.4% (n) of horses and 54.5% (hi), 59.1% (cf), and 77.3% (n) of human beings. use of the n test as an adjunct to the hi and cf tests increased the likelihood of serologic confirmation to 91.7%. in both hor ... | 1983 | 6618970 |
| arthropod-borne virus infections of the central nervous system. | arthropod-borne viruses (arboviruses) are an important cause of meningoencephalitis in north america. this article considers the common features of the four major cns arbovirus infections in this country and gives detailed descriptions of the individual virus infections. | 1984 | 6503938 |

| opsonization of alphaviruses in hamsters. | immune elimination of alphaviruses in immunized hamsters appears to involve formation of virus/antibody aggregates which are subsequently cleared from the circulation by cells of the reticuloendothelial system (res). virulent strains of venezuelan (vee) and western equine encephalitis (wee) viruses which were cleared slowly from the circulation of nonimmune hamsters, were cleared rapidly when inoculated into the blood of immunized hamsters. likewise, when these viruses were mixed with specific h ... | 1983 | 6311964 |

| permeability of the midgut basal lamina in the mosquito, culex tarsalis coquillett (insecta, diptera). | the permeability of the basal lamina of the midgut of the mosquito, culex tarsalis, was determined for engorged and unfed mosquito midguts both pre- and postfixed. a range of materials, with diameters from less than 2nm (lanthanum) through 90 nm, (polystyrene spheres), was examined. the permeability of the basal lamina was constant under all experimental conditions; 5--8 nm particles (colloidal thorium) were the largest to consistently permeate. the discussion is centered on the question of how ... | 1981 | 6115555 |
