The antigenic profiles of serotype O strains of FMDV collected from the oropharynx of persistently infected cattle were defined with a panel of monoclonal antibodies (mAb's) in an indirect antigen-trapping ELISA. The mAb profiling showed no significant loss of reactivity in two neutralising antigenic sites of persistent FMDV isolates collected over a period of eight months. Early and late serum taken from a carrier animal showed similar neutralising activity against early and late carrier isolates. The antigenic stability of serotype O strains of FMDV collected during the carrier state suggests that antigenic variation facilitated by pressure from the host humoral immune response is not critical to the establishment or maintenance of a persistent infection with FMDV.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D009500 Neutralization Tests The measurement of infection-blocking titer of ANTISERA by testing a series of dilutions for a given virus-antiserum interaction end-point, which is generally the dilution at which tissue cultures inoculated with the serum-virus mixtures demonstrate cytopathology (CPE) or the dilution at which 50% of test animals injected with serum-virus mixtures show infectivity (ID50) or die (LD50).

D005536 Foot-and-Mouth Disease A highly infectious disease caused by FOOT AND MOUTH DISEASE VIRUS that affects mammals of the ARTIODACTYLA order (CATTLE; SHEEP; GOATS; and PIGS) and is characterized by high fever followed by the appearance of blisters inside the mouth and on the feet.

D000818 Animals Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.

D000940 Antigenic Variation Change in the surface ANTIGEN of a microorganism. There are two different types. One is a phenomenon, especially associated with INFLUENZA VIRUSES, where they undergo spontaneous variation both as slow antigenic drift and sudden emergence of new strains (antigenic shift). The second type is when certain PARASITES, especially trypanosomes, PLASMODIUM, and BORRELIA, survive the immune response of the host by changing the surface coat (antigen switching).
