The expression of metallothionein (MT) was investigated immunohistochemically in the cells of total blood smears of cows infected with bovine leukemia virus, smears from in vitro culture of1 leukemic lymphocyte and in histological preparations of leukemic affected lymph nodes. In the blood smears cells and in -vitrtréulture lymphocytes, MT, was localized under cellular membrane in the form of fine granules. This protein is absorbed by cells from blood plasma via diffusion. In histopathological preparations, MT was localized in dendrytic and reticulum cells, but it was absent in leukemic lymphocytes. This finding suggests that MT expression depends on the type and function of the lymphocytic series cells.
