Identification of microRNAs in PCV2 subclinically infected pigs by high throughput sequencing
(BMC, 2015-03-03)
Porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2) is the essential etiological infectious agent of PCV2-systemic disease and has been associated with other swine diseases, all of them collectively known as porcine ...
Role of wild ruminants in the epidemiology of bluetongue virus serotypes 1, 4 and 8 in Spain
(BMC, 2011-07-23)
Although the importance of wild ruminants as potential reservoirs of bluetongue virus (BTV) has been suggested,
the role played by these species in the epidemiology of BT in Europe is still unclear. ...
Description of the first Schmallenberg disease outbreak in Spain and subsequent virus spreading in domestic ruminants
(Elsevier, 2019-06-10)
Schmallenberg disease (SBD) is an emerging disease transmitted mainly among ruminant species by biting midges of the genus Culicoides. Since the Schmallenberg virus (SBV) was first identified in Germany ...
Do humans spread zoonotic enteric bacteria in Antarctica?
(Elsevier, 2018-10-23)
Reports of enteric bacteria in Antarctic wildlife have suggested its spread from people to seabirds and seals, but evidence is scarce and fragmentary. We investigated the occurrence of zoonotic enteric ...
Retrospective study on transmissible viral proventriculitis and chicken proventricular necrosis virus (CPNV) in the UK
(Taylor & Francis, 2019-10-21)
Chicken proventricular necrosis virus (CPNV) is a recently described birnavirus, which has been proposed to be the cause of transmissible viral proventriculitis (TVP). The understanding of the epidemiology ...
Evaluation of the capability of the PCV2 genome to encode miRNAs: lack of viral miRNA expression in an experimental infection
(BMC, 2015-05-01)
Porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2) is a ssDNA virus causing PCV2-systemic disease (PCV2-SD), one of the most important diseases in swine. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a new class of small non-coding RNAs that ...
Monitoring of bluetongue virus in zoo animals in Spain, 2007–2019
(Wiley, 2021-05-08)
Bluetongue (BT) is an emerging and re-emerging communicable vector-borne disease of animal health concern. A serosurvey was performed to assess exposure to BT virus (BTV) in zoo animals in Spain and to ...
Identification of Plitidepsin as Potent Inhibitor of SARS-CoV-2-Induced Cytopathic Effect After a Drug Repurposing Screen
(Frontiers Media, 2021-03-25)
There is an urgent need to identify therapeutics for the treatment of Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). Although different antivirals are given for the clinical management of SARS-CoV-2 infection, ...
Detection of SARS-CoV-2 in a cat owned by a COVID-19−affected patient in Spain
(National Academy of Sciences, 2020-09-18)
Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), the etiological agent of COVID-19, is considered a zoonotic pathogen mainly transmitted human to human. Few reports indicate that pets may ...
Preclinical evaluation of a COVID-19 vaccine candidate based on a recombinant RBD fusion heterodimer of SARS-CoV-2
(Cell Press, 2023-02-02)
Current COVID-19 vaccines have been associated with a decline in infection rates,
prevention of severe disease, and a decrease in mortality rates. However, SARSCoV-2 variants are continuously evolving, ...
