Identification of Promiscuous African Swine Fever Virus T-Cell Determinants Using a Multiple Technical Approach
(MDPI, 2021-01-07)
The development of subunit vaccines against African swine fever (ASF) is mainly hindered by the lack of knowledge regarding the specific ASF virus (ASFV) antigens involved in protection. As a good ...
Intensive antibiotic treatment of sows with parenteral crystalline ceftiofur and tulathromycin alters the composition of the nasal microbiota of their ofspring
(BMC, 2023-11-24)
The nasal microbiota plays an important role in animal health and the use of antibiotics is a major factor that infu‑
ences its composition. Here, we studied the consequences of an intensive antibiotic ...
Ceftiofur treatment of sows results in long‑term alterations in the nasal microbiota of the ofspring that can be ameliorated by inoculation of nasal colonizers
(BMC, 2023-10-20)
Background The nasal microbiota of the piglet is a reservoir for opportunistic pathogens that can cause polyse‑
rositis, such as Glaesserella parasuis, Mycoplasma hyorhinis or Streptococcus suis. ...
Detection and genotyping of Porcine circovirus 2 (PCV‐2) and detection of Porcine circovirus 3 (PCV‐3) in sera from fattening pigs of different European countries
(Wiley, 2020-05-01)
PCV-2 is considered one of the most economically important viral agents in swine worldwide. Recently, PCV-3 has been found in pigs affected by different disorders and in healthy animals. The objective ...
Similar frequency of Porcine circovirus 3 (PCV‐3) detection in serum samples of pigs affected by digestive or respiratory disorders and age‐matched clinically healthy pigs
(Wiley, 2019-09-04)
Porcine circovirus 3 (PCV‐3) has been identified in pigs affected by different disease conditions, although its pathogenicity remains unclear. The objective of the present study was to assess the frequency ...
Fecal microbiota transplantation from warthog to pig confirms the influence of the gut microbiota on African swine fever susceptibility
(Nature Research, 2020-10-19)
African swine fever virus (ASFV) is the causative agent of a devastating hemorrhagic disease (ASF) that affects both domestic pigs and wild boars. Conversely, ASFV circulates in a subclinical manner in ...
Porcine circovirus 3 is highly prevalent in serum and tissues and may persistently infect wild boar (Sus scrofa scrofa)
(Wiley, 2018-08-08)
Porcine circovirus 3 (PCV‐3) prevalence has been minimally investigated in wild boar; dynamics of infection and viral tissue distribution are currently unknown. In this study, serum samples from 518 ...
Longitudinal Study of Fecal Microbiota in Calves with or without Diarrhea Episodes before Weaning
(MDPI, 2022-08-29)
The microbiota plays an important role in the development of diarrhea in pre-weaned calves. The characterization of the fecal microbiota in health and disease can be critical to unravel the bacterial ...
Porcine circovirus 2 (PCV-2) genetic variability under natural infection scenario reveals a complex network of viral quasispecies
(Nature Research, 2018-10-19)
Porcine circovirus 2 (PCV-2) is a virus characterized by a high evolutionary rate, promoting the potential
emergence of diferent genotypes and strains. Despite the likely relevance in the emergence of ...
Experimental Inoculation of Porcine Circovirus 3 (PCV-3) in Pregnant Gilts Causes PCV-3-Associated Lesions in Newborn Piglets that Persist until Weaning
(Wiley, 2023-10-20)
Porcine circovirus 3 (PCV-3) has been detected in cases of reproductive failure but the pathogenesis of such infection is poorly
understood. So far, experimental PCV-3 inoculations have been performed ...
