Interspecies Transmission of Cytauxzoon felis

American Journal of Veterinary Research, 1982
SUMMARY The causative agent of feline cytauxzoonosis was experimentally inoculated into 4 species of domestic farm animals, 9 species of laboratory animals, and 17 wildlife species. The inoculum consisted of freshly collected or deep-frozen blood and/or tissue homogenates from domestic cats euthanatized in extremis with experimentally transmitted ...

Interspecies transmission of prions

Biochemistry (Moscow), 2011
Mammalian prions are infectious agents of proteinaceous nature that cause several incurable neurodegenerative diseases. Interspecies transmission of prions is usually impeded or impossible. Barriers in prion transmission are caused by small interspecies differences in the primary structure of prion proteins.

Interspecies Transmission of Influenza Viruses

American Journal of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, 1995
Abstract In this report we examine the hypothesis that aquatic birds are the primordial source of all influenza viruses in other species. Two partly overlapping reservoirs of influenza A viruses exist in migrating water-fowl and shorebirds throughout the world.

Isolation, characterization and whole-genome analysis of G9 group a rotaviruses in China: Evidence for possible Porcine-Human interspecies transmission.

Virology
Group A rotaviruses (RVAs) are major causes of severe gastroenteritis in infants and young animals. To enhance our understanding of the relationship between human and animals RVAs, complete genome data are necessary.

Influenza virus proteins as factors involved in interspecies transmission

Polish Journal of Veterinary Sciences, 2014
AbstractInfluenza A viruses cause recurrent epidemics and global pandemics. One of the unique features of influenza virus is the ability to overcome interspecies barrier. Reassortment of viral genes and the accumulation of mutations contribute to the emergence of new influenza virus variants.

Interspecies Transmission, Genetic Diversity, and Evolutionary Dynamics of Pseudorabies Virus

Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2018
BACKGROUND Pseudorabies virus (PRV) causes Aujeszky's disease in pigs and can be transmitted to other mammals, including humans. In the current study, we systematically studied the interspecies transmission and evolutionary history of PRV.

Evidence for interspecies transmission route of pseudorabies virus via virally contaminated fomites.

Veterinary Microbiology, 2020
Pseudorabies virus (PRV) is a zoonotic agent with a wide host range, causing significant economic losses in animal husbandry and potential public health risk globally.

Human–Animal Interface: The Case for Influenza Interspecies Transmission

2016
Since the 1990s, the threat of influenza viruses to veterinary and human public health has increased. This coincides with the larger global populations of poultry, pigs, and people and with changing ecological factors. These factors include the redistribution of the human population to cities, rapid mass transportation of people and infectious agents ...

Potential impacts of host specificity on zoonotic or interspecies transmission of Enterocytozoon bieneusi.

Infection, Genetics and Evolution, 2019
Microsporidia are composed of a highly diverse group of single-celled, obligate intracellular fungi that colonize an extremely wide range of other eukaryotes, among which Enterocytozoon bieneusi is the most common species responsible for human ...

The Role of Pigs in Interspecies Transmission

2008
Pigs are an important host in influenza virus ecology since they are susceptible to infection with both avian and human influenza A viruses, often being involved in interspecies transmission ...
