Real-Time PCR Confirms Infection with Lagovirus europaeus [PDF]
Lagovirus europaeus GI.1/GI.2 is an etiological agent causing the highly dangerous rabbit hemorrhagic disease (RHD). Molecular research is the basic tool today that can help solve epidemic problems related to the expansion of pathogens in the world.

Carrion flies as sentinels for monitoring lagovirus activity in Australia
Lagoviruses are an essential tool for managing wild rabbit populations in Australia. Our understanding of lagovirus epidemiology in Australia currently depends on members of the public submitting liver samples from dead lagomorphs (i.e. rabbits and hares) through a monitoring program called Rabbitscan.

Cryo-electron microscopy reconstructions of two types of wild rabbit hemorrhagic disease viruses characterized the structural features of Lagovirus [PDF]
Rabbit hemorrhagic disease was described in China in 1984 and can cause hemorrhagic necrosis of the liver within two or three days after infection. The etiological agent, rabbit hemorrhagic disease virus (RHDV), belongs to the Lagovirus genus in the Caliciviridae family.

Novel Recombinant Rabbit Hemorrhagic Disease Virus 2 (RHDV2) is Circulating in China within 12 Months after Original RHDV2 Arrival. [PDF]
Rabbit hemorrhagic disease (RHD) causes lethal fulminant hepatitis in rabbits. Two different genotypes (GI.1 and GI.2) responsible for RHD are reported. GI.2 was first detected in France in 2010 and subsequently spread to other countries in Europe. In April 2020, GI.2 was detected in China.

An RT-qPCR Assay from Rectal Swabs for the Detection of Rabbit Hemorrhagic Disease Virus 2 in Natural Cases. [PDF]
Rabbit hemorrhagic disease virus 2 (RHDV2 or Lagovirus europaeus GI.2) is spreading across North America. This has enabled submissions of lagomorphs for testing to veterinary diagnostic laboratories (VDLs). The liver is currently the gold‐standard sample type for testing by RT‐qPCR.

Microbial metagenomic approach uncovers the first rabbit haemorrhagic disease virus genome in Sub-Saharan Africa [PDF]
Rabbit Haemorrhagic Disease (RHD) causes high morbidity and mortality in rabbits and hares. Here, we report the first genomic characterization of lagovirus GI.2 virus in domestic rabbits from sub-Saharan Africa.

Etiology of viral induced acute liver failure and defensins as potential therapeutic agents in ALF treatment [PDF]
Acute liver failure (ALF) is a rare and severe disease, which, despite continuous advances in medicine, is still characterized by high mortality (65-85%). Very often, a liver transplant is the only effective treatment for ALF.
