INHIBITION OF MYCOPLASMA-GALLISEPTICUM GROWTH AND ATTACHMENT TO CHICK TRACHEAL RINGS BY ANTIBODIES TO A 64-KILODALTON MEMBRANE-PROTEIN OF MYCOPLASMA-GALLISEPTICUM

AVIAN DISEASES, 37(3), 706–714.

By: A. Avakian n & D. Ley

TL;DR: P64 should be used to immunize chickens to determine if it can stimulate a growth and attachment-inhibiting response in the respiratory tract and sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of MG strains suggested that p64 is expressed in higher amounts in vitro in virulent strains than in strains of low virulence.

PROTECTIVE IMMUNE-RESPONSE TO MYCOPLASMA-GALLISEPTICUM DEMONSTRATED IN RESPIRATORY-TRACT WASHINGS FROM M-GALLISEPTICUM-INFECTED CHICKENS

AVIAN DISEASES, 37(3), 697–705.

By: A. Avakian n & D. Ley

TL;DR: It is suggested that chickens produce a protective immune response to MG that locates in the respiratory tract and that attachment inhibition may be responsible for this protective effect. (via Semantic Scholar)

BREEDER TURKEY HENS SEROPOSITIVE AND CULTURE-NEGATIVE FOR MYCOPLASMA-SYNOVIAE

AVIAN DISEASES, 36(3), 782–787.

By: A. Avakian*, D. Ley, J. Berkhoff & M. Ficken

TL;DR: Four flocks of clinically normal turkey breeder hens were shown to have suspect and positive Mycoplasma synoviae hemagglutination-inhibition (HI), enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, and, in some cases, serum plate agglutination serology in the absence of MS isolation, and this work shows that immunoblotting can be an important tool in the diagnosis of poultry diseases.

COMPARISON OF MYCOPLASMA-SYNOVIAE ISOLATES BY IMMUNOBLOTTING

AVIAN PATHOLOGY, 21(4), 633–642.

By: A. Avakian n, D. Ley n & S. Kleven*

TL;DR: The data suggest that M. synoviae is capable of varying the molecular size of a highly immunogenic integral membrane protein, indicating that they are amphiphilic in nature and integral membrane proteins. (via Semantic Scholar)

HUMORAL IMMUNE-RESPONSE OF TURKEYS TO STRAIN-S6 AND A VARIANT MYCOPLASMA-GALLISEPTICUM STUDIED BY IMMUNOBLOTTING

AVIAN DISEASES, 36(1), 69–77.

By: A. Avakian*, D. Ley & M. Mcbride

TL;DR: Two putative variant Mycoplasma gallisepticum strains, originally isolated from commercial turkeys, were compared with eight well-characterized MG strains by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) to assess the humoral immune response of turkeys to infection with the S6 reference strain or M876 variant strain of MG.

COMPARISON OF MYCOPLASMA-GALLISEPTICUM STRAINS AND IDENTIFICATION OF IMMUNOGENIC INTEGRAL MEMBRANE-PROTEINS WITH TRITON-X-114 BY IMMUNOBLOTTING

VETERINARY MICROBIOLOGY, 29(3-4), 319–328.

MeSH headings : Animals; Antigens, Bacterial / analysis; Antigens, Surface / analysis; Birds; Chickens; Immune Sera / immunology; Immunoblotting; Membrane Proteins / analysis; Membrane Proteins / immunology; Mycoplasma / immunology; Mycoplasma Infections / immunology; Mycoplasma Infections / veterinary; Parrots; Poultry Diseases / immunology; Turkeys
TL;DR: There was no evidence found supporting the view that p64 is the hemagglutinin of M. gallisepticum, and pooled antisera reacted with more proteins and with greater intensity to reference strains than they did with six other field strains including three that have been described as serological variants.
