Differential Effect of the Deletion of African Swine Fever Virus Virulence-Associated Genes in the Induction of Attenuation of the Highly Virulent Georgia Strain

Viruses, 2019
African swine fever virus (ASFV) is the etiological agent of an often lethal disease of domestic pigs, African swine fever (ASF). The ASFV Georgia 2007 isolate (ASFV-G) is responsible for the current epidemic situation in Europe and Asia.

Screening and identification of the dominant antigens of the African swine fever virus

Frontiers in Veterinary Science, 2023
African swine fever is a highly lethal contagious disease of pigs for which there is no vaccine. Its causative agent African swine fever virus (ASFV) is a highly complex enveloped DNA virus encoding more than 150 open reading frames.

ASF -survivors’ sera do not inhibit African swine fever virus replication in vitro

Journal of Veterinary Research, 2022
African swine fever virus (ASFV) causes one of the most dangerous diseases of pigs and wild boar – African swine fever (ASF). Since its second introduction into Europe (in 2007), the disease has been spreading consistently, and now ASF-free European ...

Detection of a Novel African Swine Fever Virus with Three Large-Fragment Deletions in Genome, China

Microbiology Spectrum, 2022
We reported a novel African swine fever virus (ASFV) strain that had a three-large-fragment deletion and unique variations in genome. This isolate displayed a nonhemadsorbing phenotype and had homogeneous proliferation compared with the wild-type ASFV ...

Establishment and Evaluation of a Multicolor Latex Microsphere-Based Lateral Flow Immunoassay for the Simultaneous Detection of Antibodies Against African and Classical Swine Fever Viruses. [PDF]

Transbound Emerg Dis
African swine fever (ASF), a highly fatal disease often termed the “number one killer” of pigs, presents clinical symptoms indistinguishable from classical swine fever (CSF), such as fever, diarrhea, and vomiting, complicating on‐site differential diagnosis.

African Swine Fever Virus (Asfv) Multigene Families 360 and 530 Genes Promote Infected Macrophage Survival [PDF]

The Scientific World JOURNAL, 2001
INTRODUCTION. In the swine host ASFV infects cells of the mononuclear-phagocytic system including fixed tissue macrophages (1). Cytopathological changes consistent with apoptotic cell death, including karyorrhexis and chromatin condensation, have been observed in mononuclear cells in tissues of pigs infected with highly virulent ASFV isolates (2). ASFV

Spatial multi-criteria decision analysis to predict suitability for African swine fever endemicity in Africa [PDF]

, 2014
Background African swine fever (ASF) is endemic in several countries of Africa and may pose a risk to all pig producing areas on the continent. Official ASF reporting is often rare and there remains limited awareness of the continent-wide distribution ...
