Histopathological and virological findings in emaciated pigs from Mexico: an exploratory study
(University of Veterinary and Pharmaceutical Sciences, Brno, 2018-06-27)
The objective of this work was to detect the presence of three main pig respiratory viral agents
(porcine rubulavirus [PorPV], porcine circovirus type 2 [PCV-2], and porcine reproductive and
respiratory ...
ICTV Virus Taxonomy Profile: Asfarviridae
(Microbiology Society, 2018-03-22)
The family Asfarviridae includes the single species African swine fever virus, isolates of which have linear dsDNA genomes of
170–194 kbp. Virions have an internal core, an internal lipid membrane, an ...
Characterization of the attachment and infection by Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus 1 isolates in bone marrow-derived dendritic cells
(Elsevier, 2018-08-11)
Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) is known to infect porcine dendritic cells (DC). Previous studies indicated that different PRRSV1 isolates regulated differently the cytokine ...
Urban Wild Boars and Risk for Zoonotic Streptococcus suis, Spain
(Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 2018-03-05)
Urban wild boars (Sus scrofa) from Barcelona, Spain, harbor great diversity of Streptococcus suis strains, including strains with the cps2 gene and with the same molecular profile as local human cases. ...
Recombinant PrPSc shares structural features with brain-derived PrPSc: Insights from limited proteolysis
(Public Library of Science, 2018-01-31)
Very solid evidence suggests that the core of full length PrPSc is a 4-rung β-solenoid, and that individual PrPSc subunits stack to form amyloid fibers. We recently used limited proteolysis to map the ...
Experimental infection of dromedaries with Middle East respiratory syndrome-Coronavirus is accompanied by massive ciliary loss and depletion of the cell surface receptor dipeptidyl peptidase 4
(Nature Research, 2018-06-27)
Middle East respiratory syndrome (MERS) represents an important respiratory disease accompanied by lethal outcome in one-third of human patients. Recent data indicate that dromedaries represent an ...
Comparative proteomic analysis reveals different responses in porcine lymph nodes to virulent and attenuated homologous African swine fever virus strains
(BioMed Central, 2018-09-12)
African swine fever (ASF) is a pathology of pigs against which there is no treatment or vaccine. Understanding the
equilibrium between innate and adaptive protective responses and immune pathology might ...
Toxoplasma gondii infection in wild mustelids and cats across an urban-rural gradient
(Public Library of Science, 2018-06-20)
The increase in human population and domestic pets, such as cats, are generating important consequences in terms of habitat loss and pathogen pollution of coastal ecosystems with potential to generate ...
The analysis of genome composition and codon bias reveals distinctive patterns between avian and mammalian circoviruses which suggest a potential recombinant origin for Porcine circovirus 3
(Public Library of Science, 2018-06-29)
Members of the genus Circovirus are host-specific viruses, which are totally dependent on cell machinery for their replication. Consequently, certain mimicry of the host genome features is expected to ...
Low CD4/CD8 ratio in classical swine fever postnatalpersistent infection generated at 3 weeks after birth
(Wiley, 2018-11-20)
Classical swine fever virus (CSFV) is one of the most important pathogens affectingswine. After infection with a moderate virulence strain at 8 hours after birth, CSFV isable to induce viral persistence. ...
