Differential cytokine responses following Marek's disease virus infection in chicken genotypes differing in resistance to Marek's disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
The production of cytokine mRNAs, in addition to viral DNA, was quantified by real-time quantitative reverse transcription-PCR (RT-PCR) (cytokines) or PCR (virus) in splenocytes during the course of Marek's disease virus (MDV) infection in four inbred ...

First molecular detection and characterization of Marek’s disease virus in red-crowned cranes (Grus japonensis): a case report

open access: yesBMC Veterinary Research, 2018
Background Marek’s disease virus (MDV) resides in the genus Mardivirus in the family Herpesviridae. MDV is a highly contagious virus that can cause neurological lesions, lymphocytic proliferation, immune suppression, and death in avian species, including

Cytokines of Birds: Conserved Functions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
Targeted disruptions of the mouse genes for cytokines, cytokine receptors, or components of cytokine signaling cascades convincingly revealed the important roles of these molecules in immunologic processes. Cytokines are used at present as drugs to fight

The extraordinary evolutionary history of the reticuloendotheliosis viruses [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The reticuloendotheliosis viruses (REVs) comprise several closely related amphotropic retroviruses isolated from birds. These viruses exhibit several highly unusual characteristics that have not so far been adequately explained, including their extremely

Role of Virus-Encoded microRNAs in Avian Viral Diseases

open access: yesViruses, 2014
With total dependence on the host cell, several viruses have adopted strategies to modulate the host cellular environment, including the modulation of microRNA (miRNA) pathway through virus-encoded miRNAs.

Deletion of the Viral Thymidine Kinase in a Meq-Deleted Recombinant Marek’s Disease Virus Reduces Lymphoid Atrophy but Is Less Protective

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2021
Marek’s disease (MD) is a ubiquitous disease of domesticated chickens and its etiologic agent is the Gallid alphaherpesvirus 2 (GaHV-2), also known as Marek’s disease virus (MDV). MD is currently controlled by vaccination using live attenuated strains of

Replication of Marek's Disease Virus Is Dependent on Synthesis of De Novo Fatty Acid and Prostaglandin E2 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Marek’s disease virus (MDV) causes deadly lymphoma and induces an imbalance of the lipid metabolism in infected chickens. Here, we discovered that MDV activates the fatty acid synthesis (FAS) pathway in primary chicken embryo fibroblasts (CEFs).

Isolation and molecular characterization of a virulent Marek’s Disease virus serotype-1from Andhra Pradesh, India

open access: yesVeterinaria Italiana, 2021
Marek’s disease (MD) is one of the most significant neoplastic diseases of poultry caused by Marek’s disease virus (MDV), an oncogenic avian herpesvirus which is responsible for great economic losses to the poultry industry worldwide.

Immunological basis of differences in disease resistance in the chicken [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Genetic resistance to diseases is a multigenic trait governed mainly by the immune system and its interactions with many physiologic and environmental factors.
