Genetic evolution of Gallid herpesvirus 2 isolated in China
Infection, Genetics and Evolution, 2017 Gallid herpesvirus 2 (GaHV-2), which causes Marek's disease in chickens and has caused extensive economic losses, has recently evolved increased virulence in China. To better understand the genetic basis of the pathogenic characteristics changed and increased virulence, we sequenced the genomes of six new GaHV-2 strains (LCC, LTS, WC/1203, JL/1404, CC ...

PFOS mediates immunomodulation in an avian cell line that can be mitigated via a virus infection
BMC Veterinary Research, 2019 Background Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) are environmentally persistent and bioaccumulative chemicals. Immunomodulation is among the most concerning of toxic effects linked with PFAS exposure in mammalian models. However, no studies had yet

Common occurrence ofGallid herpesvirus-2with reticuloendotheliosis virus in chickens caused by possible contamination of vaccine stocks [PDF]
Journal of Applied Microbiology, 2015 The aim of this study was to investigate the common occurrence of reticuloendotheliosis virus (REV) among Gallid herpesvirus 2 (GaHV-2) infected chickens. The possible cause of this co-occurrence may be linked to contaminated vaccine stocks, which were also examined.The study was conducted on 25 field isolates of GaHV-2 collected between 2007 and 2013 ...

In vivo expression patterns of microRNAs of Gallid herpesvirus 2 (GaHV-2) during the virus life cycle and development of Marek’s disease lymphomas [PDF]
Virus Genes, 2015 In the past decade, a large number of microRNAs (miRNAs) have been identified in the viral genome of Gallid herpesvirus 2 (GaHV-2), which is historically known as Marek's disease virus type 1. The biological role of most GaHV-2 miRNAs remains unclear. In the present study, we have performed an overall gene expression profile of GaHV-2 miRNAs during the

An Overview on Marek’s Disease Virus Evolution and Evidence for Increased Virulence in Brazil
Brazilian Journal of Poultry Science, 2019 Marek’s disease virus (MDV) has been shown to be evolving to higher virulence. One of the genetic sites involved in virulence which enables such characterization is the 339-amino acid Meq protein encoding gene (meq).
