A defect in lymphocyte function could be responsible for persistent infection by the equine infectious anemia virus. The number of lymphocytes bearing surface immunoglobulin, as detected by immunofluorescence, and lymphocyte response to mitogens were the same in uninfected and equine infectious anemia-infected animals. A defect in T or B lymphocyte numbers or ability to respond to stimuli was not detected in this chronic virus disease.
淋巴细胞功能缺陷可能是马传染性贫血病毒持续感染的原因。通过免疫荧光检测,未感染和感染马传染性贫血的动物中,表面带有免疫球蛋白的淋巴细胞数量以及淋巴细胞对有丝分裂原的反应是相同的。在这种慢性病毒疾病中,未检测到T或B淋巴细胞数量或对刺激反应能力的缺陷。
