Abstract

Shipman, Charles Jr. (Indiana University School of Medicine, Indianapolis), and Alvin S. Levine. Selective response of the Japanese quail to various strains of Rous sarcoma virus. J. Bacteriol. 92:161-163. 1966.-The Bryan "high-titer," Carr-Zilber, Harris, Prague, Schmidt-Ruppin, and "29" strains of Rous sarcoma virus were used to initiate tumors in the Japanese quail (Coturnix coturnix japonica). Although all strains produced tumors upon primary inoculation, only the Bryan "high-titer" and Harris strains could be serially passaged with cell-free tumor extracts. Analysis by means of the end-point dilution technique and the interference test revealed that the tumor extract of the Bryan "high-titer" strain passaged 10 times in the quail contained a Rous-associated virus.

Autoimmune Polyendocrine Syndromes

This feed focuses on a rare genetic condition called Autoimmune Polyendocrine Syndromes, which are characterized by autoantibodies against multiple endocrine organs. This can lead to Type I Diabetes.

Autoimmune Polyendocrinopathies

Autoimmune polyendocrinopathies, also called polyglandular autoimmune syndromes (PGASs), or polyendocrine autoimmune syndromes(PASs), are a heterogeneous group of rare diseases characterized by autoimmune activity against more than one endocrine organ, although non-endocrine organs can be affected.
