Functional analysis of estradiol using BLV-infected cattle. (a) Serum estradiol concentrations were measured by ELISA. (b) Serum PGE2 concentrations were measured by ELISA. (c and d) Whole-blood culture or PBMC culture was performed to evaluate IFN-γ production in response to Con A or gp51 peptide mix, respectively. (a–d) Statistical significance was determined by Welch’s t test (a–d).
