The immediate-early gene ie14/vsag of herpesvirus saimiri has homology with murine superantigens. We compared the pathogenesis of infection with either ie14/vsag deletion mutants or wild-type virus C488 in cottontop tamarin monkeys (Saguinus oedipus). Two weeks after infection, all animals developed acute T-cell lymphomas independently of the presence of the viral ie14/vsag gene.
猴疱疹病毒的即刻早期基因ie14/vsag与小鼠超抗原具有同源性。我们比较了棉顶狨猴(Saguinus oedipus)感染ie14/vsag缺失突变体或野生型病毒C488后的发病机制。感染两周后,所有动物均独立于病毒ie14/vsag基因的存在而发展为急性T细胞淋巴瘤。
