Bone and red blood cell DNA was obtained from MAV-2(O) infected, osteopetrotic chickens and analyzed for the presence of integrated and unintegrated viral DNA. Results indicate that unintegrated MAV-2(O) DNA did not appear until after osteopetrotic lesions were well established. These observations lead us to conclude that, unlike some retroviral diseases, unintegrated viral DNA may not play a significant role in the pathogenesis of MAV-2(O) osteopetrosis. In addition, there was no evidence of a clonally derived tumor in the bone.
从感染MAV-2(O)的骨石化鸡中获取骨骼和红细胞DNA,并分析整合和未整合病毒DNA的存在情况。结果表明,未整合的MAV-2(O) DNA直到骨石化病变充分形成后才出现。这些观察结果使我们得出结论,与某些逆转录病毒疾病不同,未整合的病毒DNA可能在MAV-2(O)骨石化的发病机制中不发挥重要作用。此外,没有证据表明骨骼中存在克隆衍生的肿瘤。
