Elevated pim-1 and c-myc proto-oncogene induction in B lymphocytes from BLV-infected cows with persistent B lymphocytosis.
    Leukemia, 1996, Volume: 10, Issue:10

    Bovine leukemia virus (BLV) induces a non-malignant, polyclonal, persistent lymphocytosis (PL) of circulating, CD5 B lymphocytes in cattle, with variable progression to CD5 B cell leukemia or lymphoma. We analyzed the expression of two proto-oncogenes, pim-1 and c-myc, proto-oncogenes deregulated in some human B cell leukemias and lymphomas, in peripheral blood mononuclear leukocytes (PBML) from BLV-infected PL cows. Results demonstrate that pim-1 and c-myc mRNA levels are elevated in unfractionated stimulated PBML from a sample of PL cows naturally infected with BLV. Results confirm that pim-1 is constitutively expressed, but not inducible in normal bovine peripheral blood B lymphocytes, but can be induced in the predominantly CD5 B lymphocytes from BLV-infected PL cows. Results further demonstrate that c-myc is inducible in bovine B and T lymphocytes regardless of BLV status, but the amount of induction is greater in B lymphocytes from BLV-infected PL cows than in B lymphocytes from noninfected control cows. These results suggest that pim-1 and c-myc are upregulated in B lymphocytes from BLV-infected PL cows and that deregulation of proto-oncogene expression is not limited to completely transformed cells, but can also characterize a naturally occurring, pre-neoplastic lymphocytic state.
