Pesquisa dos agentes infecciosos causadores da toxoplasmose, linfadenite caseosa e maedi-visna em ovinos [PDF]
Infectious contagious diseases such as Toxoplasmosis, Casein Lymphadenitis and Maedi-visna can cause coinfections aggravating animals’ health. Toxoplasmosis is a zoonosis that causes reproductive losses in sheep.

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

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

Duplicated sequence motif in the long terminal repeat of maedi-visna virus extends cell tropism and is associated with neurovirulence. [PDF]
Maedi-visna virus (MW) is a lentivirus of sheep causing chronic inflammatory disease of the lungs (maedi) and the nervous system (visna). We have previously shown that a duplicated sequence in the long terminal repeat (LTR) of MVV is a determinant of ...

Epidemiological survey for visna-maedi among sheep in northern prefectures of Japan [PDF]
Ovine sera collected from the northern Prefectures of Hokkaido, Iwate and Aomori in Japan, were examined for the presence of antibodies against visna-maedi virus using the agar gel immunodiffusion test and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays.

Maedi-visna virus infection of ovine mammary epithelial cells [PDF]
The aim of this work was to perform a complete study of maedi-visna virus (MVV) infected mammary glands of naturally-infected sheep, and to determine if cells other than macrophages undergo a productive viral infection in this organ. Fifteen seropositive and two seronegative ewes were selected from MVV-infected flocks on the basis of clinical ...
