Post-burn increases in expression of MuERV proteins reactive against MLV envelope antibody in distant organs. Liver, lung, and kidney samples collected at 24 hours (burn and no burn) were analyzed for changes in MuERV protein expression by Western blot analysis using Rauscher MLV envelope antibody. Arrows indicate envelope antibody-reactive MuERV proteins in the liver and kidney whose expression is increased after burn.
