Akabane disease in sheep

Australian Veterinary Journal, 1988
SUMMARY: Perinatal lamb mortality, associated with malformations of the CNS due to Akabane viral infection, occurred in 4 of 9 flocks of ewes lambing on 3 farms between 26 May and 14 November, 1976. Cases were restricted to ewes conceiving prior to the second week of March and lambing between 26 May and 19 July. As judged by seroconversion in sentinel

Akabane Disease in Cattle: Congenital Abnormalities caused by Viral Infection. Experimental Disease

Veterinary Pathology, 1982
Nonpurulent encephalomyelitis and polymyositis were primary lesions of cattle and goats experimentally infected with Akabane virus. Two caprine fetuses, two months old, were infected placentally and examined 11 days after inoculation; twin caprine fetuses, three months old, were inoculated intramuscularly through the dam's uterus and examined nine days

Akabane Disease in Cattle: Congenital Abnormalities caused by Viral Infection. Spontaneous Disease

Veterinary Pathology, 1982
Akabane disease, an infectious disorder causing congenital abnormalities in calves, was studied in naturally affected calves between 1972 and 1974 in Japan. The animals included one three-month fetus from which a strain of Akabane virus (OBE-1) was isolated, and a total of 177 stillborn or premature fetuses and deformed or infirm newborn calves that ...

Receptor alterations associated with spinal motoneuron degeneration in Bovine Akabane disease

Annals of Neurology, 1990
AbstractAkabane disease in cattle is characterized by congenital abnormalities including arthrogryposis, which is characterized by a depletion of spinal ventral horn motoneurons, a loss of axons, and depletion of myelin in the lateral and ventral tracts.

Study of Akabane disease in an Iranian dairy herd: a re-emerging disease

Veterinary Research Communications
Akabane virus is a teratogenic pathogen transmitted by Culicoides spp. to ruminants. The virus induces anomalies in the central nervous system in the developing fetus, resulting in arthrogryposis-hydranencephaly (A-H) syndrome. During three outbreaks of the disease (2002, 2013, and 2020), 77 calves were born in Varamin, Iran, with A-H syndrome.

Transition of Akabane virus genogroups and its association with changes in the nature of disease in Japan

Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, 2017
Akabane virus (AKAV) is teratogenic to the foetus of domestic ruminants and causes a significant reproduction loss in cattle in Japan. In several past epizootics in cattle, AKAV was also associated with post-natal encephalomyelitis, mainly in calves and young stock.

Development of inactivated vaccine for Akabane disease.

National Institute of Animal Health quarterly, 1979
Virus inactivated by formalin or beta-propiolactone was superior to that inactivated by ether and heating in immunogenicity to mice. There were no significant differences in the antibody response of mice among such adjuvants as aluminum phosphate gel, aluminum hydroxide gel, and sodium arginate gel.

Growth of Epizootic Hemorrhagic Disease, Akabane, and Ephemeral Fever Viruses in Aedes albopictus Cells Maintained at Various Temperatures

Australian Journal of Biological Sciences, 1985
The growth curves of one epizootic hemorrhagic disease (EHD) virus serotype (Reoviridae), two Akabane virus strains (Bunyaviridae) and three bovine ephemeral fever (BEF) group viruses (Rhabdoviridae) were determined in Aedes albopictus cells maintained at IS, 20, 28 and 33 e.

Immune response of various animals to Akabane disease live virus vaccine.

National Institute of Animal Health quarterly, 1980
When various animals and routes of inoculation were examined for antibody response to Akabane disease live virus vaccine, the intracerebral (ic) inoculation of mice induced a better antibody response than the subcutaneous (sc) inoculation of calves, guinea pigs, hamsters, mice, or rats.
