Seroprevalence of Avian Leukosis Virus Antigen Using ELISA Technique in Exotic Broilers and Nigerian Local Chickens in Zaria, Nigeria [PDF]
In an attempt to determine the seroprevalence of avian leukosis virus (ALV) in exotic broiler chickens and Nigerian local chickens in Zaria, Nigeria, a total of 600 sera (300 from exotic broiler chickens and 300 from Nigerian local chickens), obtained ...

In poultry, fowl adenovirus (FAdV) and co-infected viruses (such as avian hepatitis E virus, aHEV) are likely to cause decreased egg production, inclusion body hepatitis, and pericardial effusion syndrome. From July to September 2023, eight poultry farms

The role of wild birds in the global highly pathogenic avian influenza H5 panzootic [PDF]
The highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) H5 clade 2.3.4.4b has triggered an unprecedented global panzootic. As the frequency and scale of HPAI H5 outbreaks continue to rise, understanding how wild birds contribute to shape the global virus spread across regions, affecting poultry, domestic and wild mammals, is increasingly critical. In this review,

Pathological and immunohistochemical studies of lymphoid leukosis in pigeons in Egypt
Background: Pigeon leukosis is primarily caused by avian leukosis virus subgroup A (ALV-A). It infects and transforms lymphoid cells, leading to the development of tumors in various lymphoid tissues and other organs especially the liver.

Oncolytic mechanisms and immunotherapeutic potential of Newcastle disease virus in cancer therapy [PDF]
Newcastle Disease Virus (NDV), classified as Avian orthoavulavirus 1 (avian paramyxovirus type 1), is a promising oncolytic agent that selectively targets and destroys cancer cells while sparing normal tissues. Its oncoselectivity exploits cancer-specific defects in antiviral defenses, particularly impaired Type I interferon signaling, and dysregulated

Establishment of an avian leukosis virus subgroup A-resistant cell line
Rapid diagnostic methods for classifying avian leukosis subgroups in the field were needed for routine, large-scale screening. As a first step in method development, we inserted the avian leukosis virus subgroup A (ALV-A) env gene into plasmid pcDNA3.1 ...

Using sequence data to study spatial scales of interactions driving spread of Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza in Great Britain [PDF]
H5N1 highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) has been recently circulating in previously unseen patterns. As the underlying causes are uncertain, we need a better understanding of the drivers of virus circulation, as they underpin the spread, and inform about the impact of HPAI. We combine infection and bird population data, using Random Forest models
