| Moloney test | <investigation> Skin test for immunity to diphtheria in which active toxin is injected into one site and toxoid into another. This is to control for pseudopositive reactions to the toxin. (18 Nov 1997) |
|---|---|
| murine | Pertaining to mice. (18 Nov 1997) |
| murine acquired immunodeficiency syndrome | <syndrome> Acquired defect of cellular immunity that occurs in mice infected with mouse leukaemia viruses (mulv). The syndrome shows striking similarities with human aids and is characterised by lymphadenopathy, profound immunosuppression, enhanced susceptibility to opportunistic infections, and B-cell lymphomas. (12 Dec 1998) |
| murine hepatitis | A form of hepatitis in mice due to synergism between the mouse hepatitis virus and Eperythrozoon coccoides. Synonym: murine hepatitis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| murine leprosy | A slowly but progressively fatal form of leprosy occurring in rats, caused by Mycobacterium lepraemurium; it appears in two forms, glandular and musculocutaneous; causes induration, alopecia, and eventually ulceration. Synonym: mouse leprosy, murine leprosy. (05 Mar 2000) |
| murine leukaemia | A leukaemic disorder of mice caused by a number of different type C retroviruses. (05 Mar 2000) |
| murine typhus | An acute infectious disease with fever, headache, and rash, all quite similar to, but milder than, epidemic typhus, caused by a related microoganism, rickettsia typhi (mooseri), transmitted to humans by rat fleas (xenopsylla cheopis). The animal reservoir includes rats, mice and other rodents. Murine typhus occurs sporadically worldwide but is more prevalent in congested rat-infested urban areas. Also known as endemic typhus, rat-flea typhus; urban typhus of malaya). (12 Dec 1998) |
| sarcoma viruses, murine | Species of replication-defective mammalian type c retroviruses (retroviruses type c, mammalian) which are capable of transforming cells, but which replicate and produce tumours only in the presence of murine leukaemia viruses (leukaemia viruses, murine). (12 Dec 1998) |
| transmissible murine colonic hyperplasia | A disease of young mice caused by the bacterium Citrobacter freundii and characterised by diarrhoea and mucosal hyperplasia of the descending colon. (05 Mar 2000) |
| tumour viruses, murine | Species of mammalian type c retroviruses (retroviruses type c, mammalian) that cause solid tumours or leukaemias in mice. (12 Dec 1998) |
| typhus, murine | An acute infectious disease with fever, headache, and rash, all quite similar to, but milder than, epidemic typhus, caused by a related microoganism, rickettsia typhi (mooseri), transmitted to humans by rat fleas (xenopsylla cheopis). The animal reservoir includes rats, mice and other rodents. Murine typhus occurs sporadically worldwide but is more prevalent in congested rat-infested urban areas. Also known as endemic typhus, rat-flea typhus, and urban typhus of malaya. (12 Dec 1998) |
| Friend murine erythroleukaemia cell | <cell culture> Lines of mouse erythroblasts transformed by the Friend virus, that can be induced to differentiate terminally, producing haemoglobin, by various agents such as dimethyl sulphoxide. (18 Nov 1997) |
| leukaemia viruses, murine | Species of mammalian type c retroviruses (retroviruses type c, mammalian) producing leukaemia in mice. It is commonly induced by injecting filtrates of propagable tumours into newborn mice. The gross strain (gross virus) occurs spontaneously in inbred mice, but none of the other strains occurs naturally. (12 Dec 1998) |
| bovine virus diarrhoea virus | A virus of the genus Pestivirus, in the family Togaviridae, causing bovine virus diarrhoea; New York, Oregon, and Indiana strains of the virus are recognised. Synonym: mucosal disease virus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| abelson leukaemia virus | A defective murine leukaemia virus capable of transforming lymphoid cells and producing a rapidly progressing lymphoid leukaemia after superinfection with friend, moloney, or rauscher virus. (12 Dec 1998) |
