Título: | The immunologic response to experimental infection with bovine respiratory syncytial virus in lambs |
Autor: | Masot, A. J.; Gómez Gordo, Luis J.; Gómez Tejedor, Concepción; Martínez, S.; Redondo, E. | Fecha de publicación: | 1993 | Editor: | John Wiley & Sons | Citación: | Journal of Veterinary Medicine Series B 40(1-10): 659-666 (1993) | Resumen: | An experimental model was designed to study the humoral immune response in lambs experimentally infected with bovine respiratory syncytial virus (BRSV), 25 Merino lambs of both sexes, with a live weight of 17 ± 3 kg, received an intratracheal inoculation of 20 ml. saline solution containing 1.26 times 106 TCID50 BRSV (strain NMK‐7) per ml. Blood samples for serological analysis were collected from the jugular vein of the animals on days 0, 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11 and 15 post inoculation. Serum proteins were determined by electrophoresis, and a qualitative and quantitative analysis of immunoglobulins (Ig) was carried out using immunoelectrophoresis (IE) and light nephelometry, respectively. Serum anti‐BRSV antibody levels were tested by enzimelinked immunoabsorbent assay (ELISA). Lambs were necropsied 1, 3, 7, 11 and 15 postinoculation days (p.i.d.), and samples were taken for immunohistochemical analysis. IgA, IgG and IgM were labelled on paraffin‐embedded lung sections using an avidin‐biotin‐peroxidase complex. Results reflected an increase in gamma fractions in experimental animals with respect to controls. IE analysis of these sera revealed a polyclonal increase in immunoglobulins. Nephelometric examination showed an increase in serum IgA, IgG an IgM levels up to 7 p.i.d.;coinciding closely with high titres for humoral virus antibodies. After 9 p.i.d.;titres and immunoglobulin levels both fell. Immunoglobulin labelling in formol‐fixed and paraffin‐embedded lung tissue samples detected IgG and IgA, mainly in bronchial, bronchiolar and alveolar epithelia. IgM, however, was not detected in the lungs of infected animals. © 1993 Blackwell Verlag GmbH | URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/10261/291377 | DOI: | 10.1111/j.1439-0450.1993.tb00189.x | ISSN: | 0931-1793 | E-ISSN: | 1439-0450 |
