Experimental infection with high‐ and low‐virulence strains of border disease virus (BDV) in Pyrenean chamois (Rupicapra p. pyrenaica ) sheds light on the epidemiological diversity of the disease
(Wiley, 2019-04-08)
Since 2001, Pyrenean chamois (Rupicapra pyrenaica pyrenaica ) populations have been affected by border disease virus (BDV) causing mortalities of more than 80% in some areas. Field studies carried out ...
Conserved HA-peptide NG34 formulated in pCMV-CTLA4-Ig reduces viral shedding in pigs after a heterosubtypic influenza virus SwH3N2 challenge
(Public Library of Science, 2019-03-01)
Swine influenza viruses (SIVs), the causal agents of swine influenza, are not only important to control due to the economic losses in the swine industry, but also can be pandemic pathogens. Vaccination ...
Network analysis of pig movements in Argentina: Identification of key farms in the spread of infectious diseases and their biosecurity levels
(Wiley, 2019-11-29)
This study uses network analysis to evaluate how swine movements in Argentina could contribute to disease spread. Movement data for the 2014–2017 period were obtained from Argentina's online livestock ...

(Taylor & Francis Open, 2019-11-12)
The ongoing Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus (MERS-CoV) outbreaks pose a worldwide public health threat. Blocking MERS-CoV zoonotic transmission from dromedary camels, the animal reservoir, ...
Immune response development after vaccination of 1-day-old naïve pigs with a Porcine Reproductive and Respiratory Syndrome 1-based modified live virus vaccine
(BMC, 2019-02-02)
Background
The development of the innate and adaptive immune responses to Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) after vaccination of 1 day-old pigs with a PRRSV-1 based modified ...
Diagnostic accuracy of two DNA‐based molecular assays for detection of porcine circovirus 3 in swine population using Bayesian latent class analysis
(Wiley, 2019-09-28)
Molecular‐based tools sometimes are the only laboratory techniques available to detect a recently discovered agent, and their validation without the existence of previously described ‘gold standard’ ...
Myxomatosis and rabbit Haemorrhagic disease: A 30-year study of the occurrence on commercial farms in Spain
(MDPI, 2019-10-10)
In this retrospective study, we describe the relative occurrence of clinical myxomatosis, and rabbit haemorrhagic disease (RHD), on 1714 commercial farms visited in Spain, between 1988 and 2018. We ...

Objective To investigate whether cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) neurogranin concentrations are altered in sporadic Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD), comparatively with Alzheimer’s disease (AD), and associated ...
Fatal Photobacterium damselae-induced enteritis in a leatherback turtle Dermochelys coriacea
(Inter-Research, 2019-08-08)
Stranded leatherback turtle Dermochelys coriacea complete pathology reports are rare, and the cause of mortality is difficult to determine in many cases. We conducted a complete pathological study of a ...
A shift in Porcine circovirus 3 (PCV‐3) history paradigm: Phylodynamic analyses reveal an ancient origin and prolonged undetected circulation in the worldwide swine population
(Wiley Open Access, 2019-09-30)
The identification of a new circovirus (Porcine circovirus 3, PCV-3) has raised a remarkable concern because of some analogies with Porcine circovirus 2 (PCV-2). Preliminary results suggest an extremely ...
