Feline cowpox virus infection

Journal of Small Animal Practice, 1990
ABSTRACTThe domestic cat is now the most commonly recognised host of cowpox virus in Great Britain and several recent cases of human cowpox have been traced to contact with infected cats. This review brings together some of the recent developments in our understanding of the natural history of cowpox virus and cowpox in cats.

Cowpox virus infection: an emerging health threat

Current Opinion in Infectious Diseases, 2008
Human cowpox, a rare zoonotic infection, evokes a self-limited disease, except for immunocompromised and eczematous patients, particularly children, where it can become severe. The causative agent, cowpox virus, is distributed in Europe, west former USSR, and adjacent areas of Northern and Central Asia, with an increasing number of reports in Europe ...

Genus Orthopoxvirus: Cowpox virus

2007
Cowpox virus (CPXV) is distinguished from other orthopoxvirus (OPV) species by producing cytoplasmic A-type inclusion bodies and flattened pocks with a hemorrhagic center on the chorioallantoic membrane. CPXV is endemic to Western Eurasia and naturally infects a broad range of host species including domestic animals, and zoo animals, as well as humans.

Cowpox is an uncommon infection in the cat cause by an orthopox virus. Cats are infected by contact with the reservoir host, usually a wild rodent. Lesions start as a small ulcerated nodule but can be locally extensive. Secondary skin lesions often develop one to two weeks after the primary lesion and systemic signs such as pyrexia are possible ...

Effect of Double Infection of Cowpox Virus‐Infected Cells with Paramyxovirus (Sendai Virus) on Formation of Cowpox Virus‐Specific Cell Surface Antigen

Microbiology and Immunology, 1978
AbstractThe formation of cowpox virus‐specific cell surface antigen (CPV S‐ag) was significantly enhanced by double infection with HVJ (Sendai virus). Simultaneous double infection, superinfection with HVJ and superinfection with CPV of cells persistently infected with HVJ similarly enhanced the formation of CPV S‐ag, while pre‐infection with HVJ was ...
