Monoclonal antibodies and microfluorimetry were used to determine the absolute number of B and T lymphocytes in the blood of bovine leukemia virus (BLV)-infected cows. The blood lymphocyte populations from BLV-infected cows were significantly higher than those from BLV-negative cows. The increase in the lymphocyte population in 3 BLV-infected nonlymphocytotic cows was attributed to a significant increase in the number of T lymphocytes; in 3 BLV-infected persistently lymphocytotic cows, the increase was attributed to a significant increase in the number of B and T lymphocytes. One persistently lymphocytotic cow had a high lymphocyte count, and lymphocytes from this cow contained cells that appeared to stain with markers specific for bovine B and T lymphocytes. We concluded that infection of cattle with the B-cell lymphotropic retrovirus, BLV, not only affected B cells, but also T cells.
