How cowpox virus turns back cell defenses. [PDF]
PLoS Biology, 2012 Viruses follow a well-choreographed battle plan to mount an infection. First, they invade cells, then stage a takeover of its genetic and protein replication machinery. Once the virus assumes control, it forces the cell to create thousands of copies of the virus, which usually ends up killing the cell.

Chasing Jenner's vaccine: revisiting cowpox virus classification. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2011 Cowpox virus (CPXV) is described as the source of the first vaccine used to prevent the onset and spread of an infectious disease. It is one of the earliest described members of the genus Orthopoxvirus, which includes the viruses that cause smallpox and ...

A negative feedback modulator of antigen processing evolved from a frameshift in the cowpox virus genome. [PDF]
PLoS Pathogens, 2014 Coevolution of viruses and their hosts represents a dynamic molecular battle between the immune system and viral factors that mediate immune evasion. After the abandonment of smallpox vaccination, cowpox virus infections are an emerging zoonotic health ...

Concomitant Human Infections with 2 Cowpox Virus Strains in Related Cases, France, 2011 [PDF]
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2013 We investigated 4 related human cases of cowpox virus infection reported in France during 2011. Three patients were infected by the same strain, probably transmitted by imported pet rats, and the fourth patient was infected by another strain.

Cowpox: How dangerous could it be for humans? Case report
International Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2021 Cowpox is a rare zoonosis transmitted to humans mainly from cats. The disease usually causes skin lesions; however, the ocular form may lead to other serious complications.We describe a case of cowpox in a rare location of the upper eyelid of an ...

Antigens of cowpox virus [PDF]
Journal of Hygiene, 1962 Cowpox soluble antigen is shown by gel-diffusion studies to contain at least nine precipitable substances whose presence is induced by virus infection. One of these substances, pattern componentd, is not produced in white cowpox infections, and its production in vaccinia infection can be inferred only from the presence of small amounts of anti-din anti-
