Complementary nuclear RNA's of murine sarcoma-leukemia virus complex in transformed cells.

The high molecular weight RNA (S(20,w) = 69S) of murine sarcomaleukemia virus (MSV-MLV) complex dissociated into 37S subunits when heated to 95 degrees C for 2 minutes. Specific annealing tests revealed that the viral RNA had complementarity with two heterogeneous RNA species from the nuclei of cells (78 A1) transformed by and chronically infected with this virus complex. The two nuclear RNA species that hybridized with the viral RNA had sedimentation constants ranging from 31-36S and 18-22S, respectively. There was no specific annealing between viral RNA and the cytoplasmic RNA of the 78 A1 cells. The detection of the complementary RNA strands of MSV-MLV suggests that this oncogenic virus complex may replicate in a fashion similar to that of the non-oncogenic RNA viruses, but may differ in that the complementary strands are found in the nucleus rather than in the cytoplasm of the transformed cells.

Characterization of intracellular ribonucleic acid specific for the murine sarcoma-leukemia virus complex.

Virus particles were continuously produced by a cell line (78A1) of rat embryo fibroblasts that had been transformed by the murine sarcoma-leukemia virus complex. Since most of the mature virions were found in the extracellular fluid and were not cell-associated, a measurable quantity of viral ribonucleic acid (RNA) could not be extracted from these cells. Cycloheximide, a protein inhibitor, was successfully used to accumulate viral RNA within the cells. This ribonuclease-sensitive RNA, with a sedimentation coefficient of 71S, had the same base composition as the high molecular weight RNA (S(20,w) = 71) isolated from purified virions released by the transformed cells.

Hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis.

Hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) is a rare condition in children associated with immunodeficiency, life threatening infections and malignancy. Infection associated hemophagocytosis responds well to appropriate antimicrobioal therapy and rarely to steroids when the infective agent is suspected to be of viral origin.

Congenital indifference to pain.

Congenital analgesia can vary from simple analgesia without any systemic dysfunction to more serious conditions associated with peripheral neuropathy, self-mutilation, and mental retardation. Prevention of injury is important for normal growth of the child.
