The role of glycoprotein H of equine herpesviruses 1 and 4 (EHV-1 and EHV-4) in cellular host range and integrin binding [PDF]
Equine herpesvirus type 1 and 4 (EHV-1 and EHV-4) glycoprotein H (gH) has been hypothesized to play a role in direct fusion of the virus envelope with cellular membranes.

Comparative Analysis of Glycoprotein B (gB) of Equine Herpesvirus Type 1 and Type 4 (EHV-1 and EHV-4) in Cellular Tropism and Cell-to-Cell Transmission [PDF]
Glycoprotein B (gB) plays an important role in alphaherpesvirus cellular entry and acts in concert with gD and the gH/gL complex. To evaluate whether functional differences exist between gB1 and gB4, the corresponding genes were exchanged between the two

Molecular and pathological investigations of EHV-1 and EHV-4 infections in horses in Turkey
The aim of the present study was to investigate abortion storms that occurred in the Marmara region of Turkey in 2008-2009 using a real-time PCR. Two aborted foetuses were necropsied and histo-pathological findings reported herein. Ten lungs, 3 brains and one nasal swab from 10 aborted foetuses, 6 nasal swabs and 3 vaginal swabs from aborting mares ...

Equine herpesviruses (EHV) infect horses early during life and the persistence of these viruses through establishment of latency represents a real risk. A better understanding of the immune response to EHV infection is necessary to improve our methods of

A multiplex real-time PCR was designed to detect and differentiate equid herpesvirus 1 (EHV-1) and equid herpesvirus 4 (EHV-4). The PCR targets the glycoprotein B gene of EHV-1 and EHV-4. Primers and probes were specific to each equine herpesvirus type and can be used in monoplex or multiplex PCRs, allowing the differentiation of these two closely ...

Equine rhinopneumonitis, caused by Equid Herpesvirus 4 (EHV-4) and EHV-1, is one of the most frequent respiratory diseases experienced by horse breeders and trainers. The French equine infectious diseases surveillance network (RESPE) reports numerous outbreaks each year, which can significantly disrupt economic activities, as illustrated in France in ...

Study of the survival of equine herpesvirus 4 (EHV-4) as a source of environmental contamination
Introduction:Equine herpesvirus 4 (EHV-4) is responsible for respiratory diseases, called equine viral rhinopneumonitis, in horses and in rare cases for abortions or neonatal deaths. This disease is highly contagious and transmitted mainly through infected nasal discharge.
