Figure 1From: Injury-elicited stressors alter endogenous retrovirus expression in lymphocytes depending on cell type and source lymphoid organMuLV-ERV expression in B- and T-cells derived from lymphoid organs of C57BL/6J mice. MuLV-ERV expression was examined in B- and T-cells isolated from the spleen, thymus, and seven different lymph nodes of female C57BL/6J mice without any treatment. A schematic drawing of a typical MuLV-ERV proviral structure indicates the relative locations of a set of primers used for amplification of the U3 regions. Differential MuLV-ERV expression patterns were observed in B- and T-cells derived from various lymphoid organs. LN (lymph node), SM (size marker).Back to article page
