Interactome between ASFV and host immune pathway proteins
African swine fever virus (ASFV) causes severe acute hemorrhagic disease with high mortality in domestic pigs but minimal or no symptoms to warthogs, for which the underlying mechanism remains elusive.

Duration of immunity following infection with moderately virulent ASFV [PDF]
AbstractAfrican swine fever virus (ASFV) poses a significant threat to pork production and wild pig populations worldwide. The study assessed the long-term fate and immunity of animals recovering from a moderately virulent ASFV infection, following the principles of a duration of immunity study for live vaccines.

The deletion of the EP402R and MGF505/360 genes attenuates a genotype I/II recombinant ASFV but fails to confer complete protection against homologous or genotype II challenge in pigs [PDF]
African swine fever (ASF), a pig disease caused by ASFV, is highly contagious and often lethal. The recent emergence of novel ASFV with I/II genomic recombination has posed significant challenges to global ASF prevention and control.

A review of some important viral diseases of wild boars [PDF]
Wild boars are one of the widest-ranging mammals worldwide and represent reservoirs for many important viruses. Disease outbreaks in domestic swine are often described as a consequence of contact with wild boars, and traditional rearing conditions are a ...

Evaluation of the Presence of ASFV in Wolf Feces Collected from Areas in Poland with ASFV Persistence [PDF]
African swine fever (ASF), caused by a DNA virus (ASFV) belonging to genus Asfivirus of the Asfarviridae family, is one of the most threatening diseases of suids. During last few years, it has spread among populations of wild boars and pigs in countries of Eastern and Central Europe, causing huge economical losses.

Structures and Functional Diversities of ASFV Proteins [PDF]
African swine fever virus (ASFV), the causative pathogen of the recent ASF epidemic, is a highly contagious double-stranded DNA virus. Its genome is in the range of 170~193 kbp and encodes 68 structural proteins and over 100 non-structural proteins. Its high pathogenicity strains cause nearly 100% mortality in swine.

Inhibition of African swine fever virus replication by β-glucan
Background: African swine fever (ASF) is one of the most important diseases in pigs because of its effects on all ages and breeds. To date, the commercial vaccines and drugs for prevention of ASF are lacking in the market and the survival of ASFV in ...

Evaluation of the Safety Profile of the ASFV Vaccine Candidate ASFV-G-ΔI177L
African swine fever (ASF) is the cause of a recent pandemic that is posing a threat to much of the world swine production. The etiological agent, ASF virus (ASFV), infects domestic and wild swine, producing a variety of clinical presentations depending on the virus strain and the genetic background of the pigs infected.
