Pathological, molecular, and serological study of small ruminant lentiviruses in Jordan [PDF]
Background and Aim: Maedi-visna is a chronic viral disease of sheep with worldwide distribution causing substantial economic losses to the small ruminant industry. Pneumonia and mastitis are the main manifestations of the disease.

Produção de antígeno nucleoprotéico do vírus da artrite-encefalite caprina e comparação com o do vírus Maedi-Visna para utilização em teste de imunodifusão em ágar gel [PDF]
Foi feita uma comparação entre os antígenos (Ag), preparados a partir dos vírus Maedi-Visna (MVV) e Artrite-encefalite Caprina (CAEV) para detecção de anticorpos contra o CAEV em 120 amostras de soro caprino.

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

Development of an improved polykaryon-based influenza virus rescue system
Background Virus rescue from transfected cells is an extremely useful technique that allows defined viral clones to be engineered for the purpose of rational vaccine design or fundamental reverse genetics studies.

Small ruminant lentiviruses (SRLVs) belong to the genus Lentivirus in the Retroviridae family. There are five genotypes (A, B, C, D, and E), where genotypes A and B have a global distribution and genotypes C, D, and E are limited to Europe. The presence of SRLV has been confirmed in Mexico, with genotype B detected in the central region of the country.

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 ...
