Complete Genome Sequence of Pig-Tailed Macaque Rhadinovirus 2 and Its Evolutionary Relationship with Rhesus Macaque Rhadinovirus and Human Herpesvirus 8/Kaposi's Sarcoma-Associated Herpesvirus Open
Two rhadinovirus lineages have been identified in Old World primates. The rhadinovirus 1 (RV1) lineage consists of human herpesvirus 8, Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV), and closely related rhadinoviruses of chimpanzees, gori…
An Immunoblot Assay for Detection of Immunoglobulin M Antibody to Human Herpesvirus 6 Open
We identified the human herpesvirus 6 (HHV-6)-dominant immunoglobulin M (IgM)-reactive virion protein as being the same 101-kDa protein (101K) previously identified as the major IgG immunoreactive protein and a specific serologic marker of…
Identification of two homologs of the Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (human herpesvirus 8) in retroperitoneal fibromatosis of different macaque species Open
Simian retroperitoneal fibromatosis (RF) is a vascular fibroproliferative neoplasm which has many morphological and histological similarities to human Kaposi's sarcoma (KS). Like epidemic KS in AIDS patients, RF is highly associated with a…
Characterization of natural killer cell activity inMacaca nemestrina Open
Natural killer (NK) cell activity was evaluated in three groups of Macaca nemestrina that varied with respect to SAIDS D retrovirus serotype 2 (SRV-2/W) and viremic status. Target cells used were Raji and K562 cells. No significant differe…
Method for detection of simian immunodeficiency virus neutralizing antibodies using a noncommercial antigen capture enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay Open
A neutralization test (NT) using a noncommercial antigen capture enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) to detect simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV) growth in vitro was developed. The capture antibody was a mixture of purified macaque …
Pathogenicity of rotavirus in rabbits Open
The role of rotavirus in diarrheal disease of rabbits was investigated, and a model for human rotavirus infection was established. Orogastric inoculation of 8- and 12-week-old New Zealand White rabbits with a rabbit strain of rotavirus (L:…
Age-related antibodies to rotavirus in New Zealand rabbits Open
The prevalence of antibodies to rotavirus was determined in 199 New Zealand rabbits from a commercial rabbitry by an indirect immunofluorescent test. Virtually all rabbits less than 1 month old and greater than 2 months old had antibodies,…

Rotavirus neutralisation by human milk. Open
Rotavirus neutralisation by human milkThere has been considerable publicity recently about the benefits of breast-feeding in giving protection from infection.We have investigated the effect of mother's serum and breast milk, taken daily fo…
Serological relatedness of herpes simplex viruses. Type-specificity of antibody response. Open
The serological relatedness of forty-seven strains of type 1 and type 2 herpes simplex virus was investigated by reciprocal and non-reciprocal neutralization kinetics. Early rabbit antisera divided the virus strains into two distinct group…
Association between Psychopathic Disorder and Serum Antibody to Herpes Simplex Virus (Type 1) Open
The sera of a small of patients has been examined for herpes simplex virus antibody. Three clinically-defined groups of patients were compared: ( a ) aggressive psychopaths, ( b ) psychiatric controls, and ( c ) general hospital patients. …
