Effect of cyclophosphamide on the response of chickens to a virulent strain of Marek's disease virus

V Kermani-Arab et al. Infect Immun. 1975 Nov.

Abstract

The effect of cyclophosphamide on the pathogenesis of Marek's disease was examined in a line of chickens which is relatively resistant to Marek's disease. The injection of cyclophosphamide into newly hatched chickens delayed and reduced viremia and also reduced the development of Marek's disease lesions until 2 weeks after exposure to Marek's disease virus. The data indicate that a population of T cells susceptible to infection with virus and possibly viral transformation is affected by cyclophosphamide.
