As other authors claimed the possibility of a genetic predisposition of BNP dams for production of BNP inducing alloantibodies (22) (23) (24) , our studies focused on investigating a general difference in immune responses between PregSure BVD vaccinated control cows and BNP donors. In in vitro proliferation assays with T cell mitogen ConA we observed that 22% of the unvaccinated cows reacted similar to BNP dams by showing a hyperproliferative reaction to ConA (immune deviant (ID) phenotype; Figure 6A , reaction difference ID to controls or BNP to controls, * * * * p < 0.0001). ./cache/cord-003368-f8f2utzx.txt ./txt/cord-003368-f8f2utzx.txt
