Advances in Diagnosis of Respiratory Diseases of Small Ruminants
Veterinary Medicine International, Volume 2014, Issue 1, 2014., 2014 Irrespective of aetiology, infectious respiratory diseases of sheep and goats contribute to 5.6 percent of the total diseases of small ruminants. These infectious respiratory disorders are divided into two groups: the diseases of upper respiratory tract, namely, nasal myiasis and enzootic nasal tumors, and diseases of lower respiratory tract, namely ...

Complex Codon Usage Pattern and Compositional Features of Retroviruses
Computational and Mathematical Methods in Medicine, Volume 2013, Issue 1, 2013., 2013 Retroviruses infect a wide range of organisms including humans. Among them, HIV‐1, which causes AIDS, has now become a major threat for world health. Some of these viruses are also potential gene transfer vectors. In this study, the patterns of synonymous codon usage in retroviruses have been studied through multivariate statistical methods on ORFs ...

BioMed Research International, Volume 2013, Issue 1, 2013., 2013 Programmed −1 ribosomal frameshifting (PRF) and stop codon readthrough are two translational recoding mechanisms utilized by some RNA viruses to express their structural and enzymatic proteins at a defined ratio. Efficient recoding usually requires an RNA pseudoknot located several nucleotides downstream from the recoding site.

Blood‐Brain Barrier Abnormalities Caused by HIV‐1 gp120: Mechanistic and Therapeutic Implications
The Scientific World Journal, Volume 2012, Issue 1, 2012., 2012 The blood‐brain barrier (BBB) is compromised in many systemic and CNS diseases, including HIV‐1 infection of the brain. We studied BBB disruption caused by HIV‐1 envelope glycoprotein 120 (gp120) as a model. Exposure to gp120, whether acute [by direct intra‐caudate‐putamen (CP) injection] or chronic [using SV(gp120), an experimental model of ongoing ...

Infection of Dendritic Cells by the Maedi-Visna Lentivirus [PDF]
Journal of Virology, 2000 ABSTRACTThe early stages of lentivirus infection of dendritic cells have been studied in an in vivo model. Maedi-visna virus (MVV) is a natural pathogen of sheep with a tropism for macrophages, but the infection of dendritic cells has not been proven, largely because of the difficulties of definitively distinguishing the two cell types.

Serological diagnostic of maedi-visna (MVV) in sheep and caprine arthritis encephalitis virus (CAEV) in goats in Macedonia [PDF]
Macedonian Veterinary Review, 2009 Maedi-Visna in sheep and CAEV in goats are diseases caused by lentiviruses with very similar antigenic characteristics. This diseases are very important for the animal husbandry because of the economical losses they cause (reduced milk yield, lower body ...
