Elements in the canine distemper virus M 3' UTR contribute to control of replication efficiency and virulence. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2012
Canine distemper virus (CDV) is a negative-sense, single-stranded RNA virus within the genus Morbillivirus and the family Paramyxoviridae. The Morbillivirus genome is composed of six transcriptional units that are separated by untranslated regions (UTRs),

Portable Molecular Diagnostics for Cetacean Morbillivirus: Development of a Reverse Transcription Insulated Isothermal PCR (RT-iiPCR) for Global Surveillance. [PDF]

Transbound Emerg Dis
Cetacean morbillivirus (CeMV) drives recurrent unusual‐mortality events, yet surveillance is uneven where laboratory capacity is limited. We developed a portable reverse transcription‐insulated isothermal PCR (RT‐iiPCR) assay targeting a conserved phosphoprotein (P)‐gene segment and evaluated analytical performance, tissue‐level clinical sensitivity ...

Morbillivirus: A highly adaptable viral genus

Heliyon, 2023
Over the course of human history, numerous diseases have been caused by the transmission of viruses from an animal reservoir into the human population. The viruses of the genus Morbillivirus are human and animal pathogens that emerged from a primordial ...

Genomic and structural investigation on dolphin morbillivirus (DMV) in Mediterranean fin whales (Balaenoptera physalus). [PDF]

, 2017
Dolphin morbillivirus (DMV) has been deemed as one of the most relevant threats for fin whales (Balaenoptera physalus) being responsible for a mortality outbreak in the Mediterranean Sea in the last years.

Effects of Phenobarbital and Prednisolone on Neurological Signs of Canine Distemper. [PDF]

Vet Med Sci
This study investigates the effects of phenobarbital and prednisolone on neurological signs of canine distemper (CD) in 35 dogs. Among 25 dogs testing positive for canine distemper virus (CDV), treatment outcomes showed limited recovery with prednisolone (8% recovery rate) and effective seizure control with phenobarbital.

Mediterranean Fin Whales (Balaenoptera physalus) Threatened by Dolphin MorbilliVirus [PDF]

, 2015
During 2011-2013, dolphin morbillivirus was molecularly identified in 4 stranded fin whales from the Mediterranean Sea. Nucleoprotein, phosphoprotein, and hemagglutinin gene sequences of the identified strain were highly homologous with those of a ...

Association of Haematological Parameters With TLR Genes in Healthy and Distemper‐Infected Dogs Haematology and TLRs in Distemper [PDF]

Vet Med Sci
The distemper‐infected dogs presented with an upregulated expression of the immune recognition receptors TLR3, TLR4 and TLR9. In the distemper‐infected dogs, there was a positive correlation between the TLR1 and PWD, TLR4 and WBC, Gran and Gran%, TLR5 and HCT, TLR6 and Gran%, TLR7 and MCV and TLR7 and PDW, as well as a negative correlation between the ...
