Dolphin Morbillivirus in Eurasian Otters, Italy [PDF]
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2019 We report biomolecular evidence of dolphin morbillivirus in 4 wild Eurasian otters (Lutra lutra) from southern Italy; 2 animals showed simultaneous immunohistochemical reactivity against morbilliviral antigen.

Neglected Hosts of Small Ruminant Morbillivirus [PDF]
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2018 Eradication of small ruminant morbillivirus (PPRV) is targeted for 2030. PPRV lineage IV is found in much of Asia and Africa. We used PPRV lineage IV strain Kurdistan/2011 in transmission trials to investigate the role of pigs, wild boar, and small ...

Mediterranean Fin Whales (Balaenoptera physalus) Threatened by Dolphin MorbilliVirus [PDF]
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2016 During 2011–2013, dolphin morbillivirus was molecularly identified in 4 stranded fin whales from the Mediterranean Sea. Nucleoprotein, phosphoprotein, and hemagglutinin gene sequences of the identified strain were highly homologous with those of a ...

Morbillivirus receptors and tropism: multiple pathways for infection
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2012 Morbilliviruses, which include measles virus (MeV), canine distemper virus, and rinderpest virus, are among the most important pathogens in their respective hosts and cause severe syndromes. Morbilliviruses are enveloped viruses with 2 envelope proteins,

Immunomodulatory Properties of Morbillivirus Nucleoproteins
Viral Immunology, 2006 Morbillivirus infections have been known for a long time to be associated with an acute immunosuppression in their natural hosts. Here, we show that recombinant Morbillivirus nucleoproteins from canine distemper virus, peste-des-petits-ruminants virus, and Rinderpest virus bind B-lymphocytes from dogs, goats, and cattle, respectively, similarly to ...

First report of feline morbillivirus in Europe. [PDF]
Veterinaria italiana, 2015 Feline morbillivirus was detected in urine samples of a 15 year old cat suffering from severe nephropathy. Viral RNA was not detected in blood and faecal samples and also the most common pathogens associated to cat kidney failure were not found. This report describes the first evidence of feline morbillivirus in Europe.

Cetacean morbillivirus in Northern and Southern Hemispheres [PDF]
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2014 In the last 25 years, at least 10 dramatic morbilliviral epidemics have occurred among free-ranging pinniped and cetacean species and populations worldwide. The origin(s) of the new Morbillivirus genus members causing these mass mortality events, along with the reason(s) behind their “sudden” appearance among wild aquatic mammals, are still unknown (Di

Isolation and characterisation of a porpoise morbillivirus
Archives of Virology, 1991 A morbillivirus was isolated from lung tissue of a porpoise which had lesions similar to those of phocine distemper. Porpoise and seal isolates differed in their reactions to monoclonal antibodies to canine distemper virus.
