Etiology, Epizootiology and Control of Maedi-Visna in Dairy Sheep: A Review

open access: yesAnimals, 2020
Maedi-visna (MV) in sheep is caused by maedi-visna virus (MVV), a small ruminant lentivirus (SRLV) that causes chronic infection and inflammatory lesions in infected animals.

Purification of Escherichia coli-expressed HIS-tagged Maedi-Visna p25 core antigen by Ni2+-chelate affinity chromatography

open access: yesVeterinární Medicína, 2001
In this study, recombinant histidine tagged p25 capsid protein of Maedi-Visna virus was developed. Part of the viral genome coding p25 protein was positioned downstream and in frame with a metal binding domain in pRSET-B vector.

Retroviral Infections in Sheep and Goats: Small Ruminant Lentiviruses and Host Interaction

open access: yesViruses, 2013
Small ruminant lentiviruses (SRLV) are members of the Retrovirus family comprising the closely related Visna/Maedi Virus (VMV) and the Caprine Arthritis-Encephalitis Virus (CAEV), which infect sheep and goats. Both infect cells of the monocyte/macrophage

Molecular characterization and phylogenetic analysis of small ruminant lentiviruses isolated from Canadian sheep and goats

open access: yesVirology Journal, 2011
Background Small Ruminant Lentiviruses (SRLV) are widespread in Canadian sheep and goats and represent an important health issue in these animals. There is however no data about the genetic diversity of Caprine Arthritis Encephalitis Virus (CAEV) or ...

Implication of caspases during maedi–visna virus-induced apoptosis

open access: yesJournal of General Virology, 2002
Maedi–visna virus (MVV) causes encephalitis, pneumonia and arthritis in sheep.In vitro, MVV infection and replication lead to strong cytopathic effects characterized by syncytia formation and subsequent cellular lysis. It was demonstrated previously that MVV infectionin vitroinduces cell death of sheep choroid plexus cells (SCPC) by a mechanism that ...
