The results indicated that the appearance of the bursin-containing cells coincided with the morphodifferentiation and growth process in rabbit. Bursin immunized cells not only distributed in dome epithelium and mucosal epithelium, but also in follicular germinal center, dome, T-cell area, goblet cell, inter-epithelial lymphocyte and cap-zone of sacculus rotundus. This founding suggested that bursincontaining cells in sacculus rotundus might play an important role in intestinal mucosal immunity.展开更多

Animal model was established by inoculation of HCMV（strain AD-169） or coinoculation with Hepatitis E virus（HEV） into the ligated sacculus rotundus and vermiform appendix in living rabbits. The specimens were collected from animals sacrificed 1 and a half hours after infection.Results： The virus was found to be capable of reproducing in these specimens through RT-PCR and Western-blot.Severe inflammation damage was found in HCMV-infected tissue. The viral protein could be detected in high amounts in the mucosal epithelium and lamina propria by immunohistochemistry and immunofluorescense.Moreover, there are strong positive signals in lymphocytes, macrophages, and lymphoid follicles. Quantitative statistics indicate that lymphocytes among epithlium cells increased significantly in viral infection groups.Conclusions： The results showed that HCMV or HEV ＋ HCMV can efficiently infect in rabbits by vivo ligated intestine loop inoculation. The present study successfully developed an infective model in vivo rabbit ligated intestinal Loop for HCMV pathogenesis study. This rabbit model can be helpful for understanding modulation of the gut immune system with HCMV infection.展开更多
