Detection of HVMNE DNA by PCR and Southern blot hybridization using p536, HVMNE-specific probe, in the tissues of 3 lymphomatous rabbits.
C2182 (lung, spleen, lymphoid tissues); C2174 (cultured PBMCs with and without IL-2, heart, thymus); C2178 (heart, lymphoid tissues, subcutaneous mass, spleen, thigh mass, PBMCs, and uterine mass). In rabbit C2174, PBMCs cultured with and without IL-2 were also analyzed. Each DNA was also assessed for amplification competence using DNA primers for cytochrome B (data not shown).
