Pathogen-host interactions are important components of epidemiological research, but are scarcely investigated in chelonians. Red-eared sliders (Trachemys scripta elegans), are recognized as a model for frog virus-3 infection (FV3), a ranavirus in the ...

Functional Genomics Analysis of the Virus-Host Interaction in FV3-Infected Xenopus laevis
This dissertation was designed to provide better understanding on the amphibian interferon (IFN) complex and relevant antiviral regulation in a Xenopus model infected by a Frog Virus 3 (FV3).

Frogs were enriched for Mφs or DCs through intraperitoneal injection with 2.5 μg of rCSF-1, rIL-34, or rFLT3L or equal volumes of the recombinant control (r-ctrl). After 3 days, 6 frogs from each treatment group (n=6) were intraperitoneally injected with

Besides the central role of classical Major Histocompatibility Complex (MHC) class Ia-restricted conventional Cluster of Differentiation 8 (CD8) T cells in antiviral host immune response, the amphibian Xenopus laevis critically rely on MHC class I-like ...

Survival of asymptomatic FV3 infected adult frogs following bacterial stimulation.
Kaplan-Meier curves represent outbred individual animals from three different experiments (35 total animals) that were infected with 1×106 PFU of FV3, subjected to a peritoneal lavage at 30 dpi, injected with heat-killed bacteria and subjected to another

Molecular Confirmation of Ranavirus Infection in Amphibians From Chad, Africa
Ranaviruses are DNA viruses (Family Iridoviridae; Subfamily Alphairidovirinae) and ranaviral disease is considered an emerging infectious disease of ectothermic vertebrates. Ranavirus infection can have varying pathological effects on infected amphibians,

Ranaviruses have been associated with rising numbers of mass die-offs in amphibian populations around the globe. However, most studies on ranaviruses to date focused on larval amphibians.

Transmission of ranavirus between ectothermic vertebrate hosts. [PDF]
Transmission is an essential process that contributes to the survival of pathogens. Ranaviruses are known to infect different classes of lower vertebrates including amphibians, fishes and reptiles.
