Bovine Herpesvirus 1 Downregulates the Expression of Bovine MHC Class I Molecules
1 Jan 1997
Abstract excerpt
The mechanism of immunosuppression induced by bovine herpesvirus 1 (BHV-1) was investigated by studying the effects of the virus on the expression of major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I molecules. After infection with the virus, the expression of class I molecules was detected by flow cytometry and pulse-chase analysis. A selective downregulation of expression of class I molecules was seen in the...
