Effect of human adenovirus on the ellipsoid-associated cells of the chicken's spleen.
Ellipsoid-associated cell (EAC) responded in two ways to the intravenously injected human adenovirus. The EAC may produce a chemotactic factor(s) which recruited heterophils to the periellipsoid white pulp. This early event was shown to occur immediately after the virus injection. Within 6 h of injection, the EAC disappeared from the ellipsoid and their vacated sites appeared edemic which suggested that the EAC may be the target cell of the adenovirus in the chicken spleen.
