Systemic CD4 cytotoxic T cells improve protection against PRRSV-1 transplacental infection
(Frontiers Media, 2023-01-17)
Background: Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) is one of the major swine pathogens causing reproductive failure in sows. Although modified-live virus (MLV) vaccines are available, ...
Porcine Reproductive and Respiratory Syndrome (PRRSV2) Viral Diversity within a Farrow-to-Wean Farm Cohort Study
(MDPI, 2023-08-30)
Describing PRRSV whole-genome viral diversity data over time within the host and withinfarm is crucial for a better understanding of viral evolution and its implications. A cohort study was
conducted ...
Environmental heterogeneity and variations in the velocity of bluetongue virus spread in six European epidemics
(Elsevier, 2017-11-04)
Several epidemics caused by different bluetongue virus (BTV) serotypes occurred in European ruminants since the early 2000. Studies on the spatial distribution of these vector-borne infections and the ...
Enhanced replication fitness of MERS-CoV clade B over clade A strains in camelids explains the dominance of clade B strains in the Arabian Peninsula
(Taylor & Francis Open Access, 2022-02-01)
Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus (MERS-CoV) continues infecting humans and dromedary camels. While MERS-CoV strains from the Middle East region are subdivided into two clades (A and B), all ...
Identification of an Immunosuppressive Cell Population during Classical Swine Fever Virus Infection and Its Role in Viral Persistence in the Host
(MDPI, 2019-09-04)
Classical swine fever virus (CSFV) remains a highly important pathogen, causing major
losses in the swine industry. Persistent infection is highly relevant for CSFV maintenance in the field;
however, ...
Classical swine fever virus: the past, present and future
(Elsevier, 2020-09-06)
Classical swine fever (CSF) is among the most relevant viral epizootic diseases of swine. Due to its severe economic impact, CSF is notifiable to the world organisation for animal health. Strict control ...
Evolutionary-Related High- and Low-Virulent Classical Swine Fever Virus Isolates Reveal Viral Determinants of Virulence
(MDPI, 2024-01-19)
Classical swine fever (CSF) has been eradicated from Western and Central Europe but
remains endemic in parts of Central and South America, Asia, and the Caribbean. CSF virus
(CSFV) has been endemic ...
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, ...
Tension pneumothorax in small odontocetes
(Inter Research, 2023-08-03)
Pneumothorax, the accumulation of air in the pleural cavity, occurs when air enters
the pleural space by the pleuro-cutaneous, pleuro-pulmonary, or pleuro-oesophageal-mediastinal
route. Tension ...
Proposed bursa of fabricius weight to body weight ratio standard in commercial broilers
(Elsevier, 2015-09-01)
Several causes may induce change and atrophy in the bursa of Fabricius (BF). Databases on BF standards are available from published studies, however, updated references are needed to adjust the
BF ...
