A total of fifteen naturally-infected and 27 non-infected ferrets were fasted and pylorus-ligated, and were either injected with corticosterone (10 or 50 mg/kg, s.c. one injection/day for 4 days) suspended in corn oil, injected with corn oil, on non-injected. Prior to autopsy blood samples were acquired for corticosterone analysis, and at autopsy the volume, pH, free and combined acidity of the gastric contents were evaluated. It was apparent that distemper induced hypochlorhydria in ferrets under the conditions of these experiments, an effect which was probably mediated through the central nervous system, but may also relate to a direct effect of distemper virus upon the gastric mucosa. Administration of corticosterone did not prevent hypochlorhydria in distemperous ferrets. Blood levels of corticosterone were elevated due to the stress effect of distemper infection, and also as a reflection of exogenous corticosterone administration. Prior immunization against canine distemper failed to immunize the ferrets in this study against the natural precipitation of this disease.</p>","PeriodicalId":72497,"journal":{"name":"Canadian journal of comparative medicine and veterinary science","volume":"31 5","pages":"135-8"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1967-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1494663/pdf/vetsci00006-0033.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"15336377","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Titres had reached a maximum by seven to ten days post-vaccination. Sucrose density-gradient ultracentrifugation demonstrated that the earliest antibodies were macroglobulins, IgM (19Sgamma; gammaM)-globulins. Lighter antibodies, IgG (7Sgamma(2); gammaG)-globulins, appeared a few days later. With time, antibody titres fell, IgM declining somewhat more quickly than IgG. After revaccination some seven months later, there was a rapid rise in both IgM and IgG.Anion-exchange column chromatography (DEAE-cellulose) and gel filtration (Sephadex G-200) were applied in separating the two forms of antibody. The former method, in which a gradient buffer system was used, proved to be the more efficient; the IgG antibodies apeared in early eluates at pH 7.8 to 8.0 and low ionic strength, 0.03M, whereas IgM was eluted late when the pH had fallen below 6.0 and the molarity had increased to beyond 0.2.
