PBMC were obtained from attenuated BHV-1 immunized cattle and cultured with UV-inactivated BHV-1 for 10 days.
The percentage of cells identified does not equal 100 because the CD2 molecule is present on CD4- and CD8-staining cells.
CD4+ T lymphocytes increased as the dominant cell population, ranging from 70 to 90% in five different experiments.
WC1 is a cell surface molecule that is expressed on bovine γδ T cells.
