Equine Arteritis Virus Does Not Induce Interferon Production in Equine Endothelial Cells: Identification of Nonstructural Protein 1 as a Main Interferon Antagonist

open access: yesBioMed Research International, Volume 2014, Issue 1, 2014., 2014
The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of equine arteritis virus (EAV) on type I interferon (IFN) production. Equine endothelial cells (EECs) were infected with the virulent Bucyrus strain (VBS) of EAV and expression of IFN‐β was measured at mRNA and protein levels by quantitative real‐time RT‐PCR and IFN bioassay using vesicular ...

The Effects of the Context‐Dependent Codon Usage Bias on the Structure of the nsp1α of Porcine Reproductive and Respiratory Syndrome Virus

open access: yesBioMed Research International, Volume 2014, Issue 1, 2014., 2014
The information about the crystal structure of porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) leader protease nsp1α is available to analyze the roles of tRNA abundance of pigs and codon usage of the nsp1α gene in the formation of this protease.

Isolation and Characterization of an Arterivirus Defective Interfering RNA Genome [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Virology, 2000
ABSTRACT Equine arteritis virus (EAV), the type member of the family Arteriviridae , is a single-stranded RNA virus with a positive-stranded genome of approximately 13 kb. EAV uses a discontinuous transcription mechanism to produce a nested set of six subgenomic mRNAs from which its structural ...

Infection Load and Prevalence of Novel Viruses Identified from the Bank Vole Do Not Associate with Exposure to Environmental Radioactivity

open access: yesViruses, 2019
Bank voles (Myodes glareolus) are host to many zoonotic viruses. As bank voles inhabiting areas contaminated by radionuclides show signs of immunosuppression, resistance to apoptosis, and elevated DNA repair activity, we predicted an association between ...

Attenuation and Immunogenicity of a Live High Pathogenic PRRSV Vaccine Candidate with a 32‐Amino Acid Deletion in the nsp2 Protein

open access: yesJournal of Immunology Research, Volume 2014, Issue 1, 2014., 2014
A porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) QY1 was serially passed on Marc‐145 cells. Virulence of different intermediate derivatives of QY1 (P5, P60, P80, and P100) were determined. The study found that QY1 had been gradually attenuated during the in vitro process.

Endogenous Antimicrobial‐Immunomodulatory Molecules: Networking Biomolecules of Innate Immunity

open access: yesChemBioChem, Volume 25, Issue 12, June 17, 2024.
A network of biomolecules (peptides, saccharides, lipids, nucleic acids, organic molecules, metal ions) endogenous to the human brain and exhibiting both antimicrobial and immunomodulatory activities has been identified. This network constitutes a previously uncatalogued and collectively underappreciated immuno‐active group of synergistic molecular ...

Prevalence and Risk Factors of Toxoplasma gondii in Fattening Pigs Farm from Yucatan, Mexico

open access: yesBioMed Research International, Volume 2013, Issue 1, 2013., 2013
The objective of this study was to estimate the prevalence and identify risk factors associated with the presence of Toxoplasma gondii in pig‐fattening farms from Yucatan, Mexico. A cross‐sectional study was conducted with a two‐stage sampling. There were 429 pigs sampled from 39 farms randomly selected.

Specific Detection of Two Divergent Simian Arteriviruses Using RNAscope In Situ Hybridization. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
Simian hemorrhagic fever (SHF) is an often lethal disease of Asian macaques. Simian hemorrhagic fever virus (SHFV) is one of at least three distinct simian arteriviruses that can cause SHF, but pathogenesis studies using modern methods have been scarce ...

The role of porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome (PRRS) virus structural and non-structural proteins in virus pathogenesis

open access: yes, 2010
Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome (PRRS) is an economically devastating viral disease affecting the swine industry worldwide. The etiological agent, PRRS virus (PRRSV), possesses a RNA viral genome with nine open reading frames (ORFs).
