Cytokine detection in eiav-infected equine monocyte-derived macrophages using quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction
The replication of equine infectious anemia virus (EIAV) in macrophages not only leads to cell death, but also to the induction of a variety of cytokines that may affect immune function. Cytokine production may be responsible for the fever, anorexia, hemorrhages, lethargy or thrombocytopenia seen in...
