Two calves (5 and 9 months old) affected with pneumonia and gingivitis were also diagnosed as having bovine leukocyte adhesion deficiency (BLAD). The gene of leukocyte adhesion molecule CD18 in these BLAD calves and their dams (carrier) were examined by means of polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and digestion of restriction endonuclease. The splicing in mRNA coded CD18 reported in human LAD was not recognized in BLAD on the basis of the results of PCR amplification. The region including the portion of point mutation, which corresponded to the region reported in the human patient, was amplified by PCR, and the PCR product was then digested with Taql. An obvious difference was recognized in the pattern of digestion among healthy calves, BLAD calves and their dams. In BLAD, therefore, the point mutation reported in human patients was strongly suggested. Moreover it may be a method able to be used in detecting the carrier.

D015703 Antigens, CD Differentiation antigens residing on mammalian leukocytes. CD stands for cluster of differentiation, which refers to groups of monoclonal antibodies that show similar reactivity with certain subpopulations of antigens of a particular lineage or differentiation stage. The subpopulations of antigens are also known by the same CD designation.

D016028 Receptors, Leukocyte-Adhesion Family of proteins associated with the capacity of LEUKOCYTES to adhere to each other and to certain substrata, e.g., the C3bi component of complement. Members of this family are the LYMPHOCYTE FUNCTION-ASSOCIATED ANTIGEN-1; (LFA-1), the MACROPHAGE-1 ANTIGEN; (Mac-1), and the INTEGRIN ALPHAXBETA2 or p150,95 leukocyte adhesion protein. They all share a common beta-subunit which is the CD18 antigen. All three of the above antigens are absent in inherited LEUKOCYTE-ADHESION DEFICIENCY SYNDROME, which is characterized by recurrent bacterial infections, impaired pus formation, and wound healing as well as abnormalities in a wide spectrum of adherence-dependent functions of granulocytes, monocytes, and lymphoid cells.

D016133 Polymerase Chain Reaction In vitro method for producing large amounts of specific DNA or RNA fragments of defined length and sequence from small amounts of short oligonucleotide flanking sequences (primers). The essential steps include thermal denaturation of the double-stranded target molecules, annealing of the primers to their complementary sequences, and extension of the annealed primers by enzymatic synthesis with DNA polymerase. The reaction is efficient, specific, and extremely sensitive. Uses for the reaction include disease diagnosis, detection of difficult-to-isolate pathogens, mutation analysis, genetic testing, DNA sequencing, and analyzing evolutionary relationships.
