Practice questions
- In Sabin and Olitsky's mouse experiments, which lesion distribution was associated with intracerebral rather than peripheral inoculation of vesicular stomatitis virus?
- After nasal instillation of vesicular stomatitis virus in young mice, which sequence best matches the pattern described by Sabin and Olitsky?
- In the nasal-inoculation experiments, why could affected olfactory regions be separated by normal-appearing areas?
- In the study's ocular-inoculation experiments, which finding most directly supported a decussating, pathway-associated route to a visual target?
- Which observation did Sabin and Olitsky use to argue against spread from the optic nerve through nonspecific perineural or interstitial spaces as the best explanation for their ocular-inoculation findings?
- Which comparison of age and inoculation route was reported for vesicular stomatitis virus in the mouse study?
- In young mice given intramuscular vesicular stomatitis virus, which CNS pattern did Sabin and Olitsky report as indicating spread along local peripheral nerves?
