Malignant catarrhal fever-like lesions associated with ovine herpesvirus-2 infection in young calves (Bos indicus): a case report [PDF]

Journal of Venomous Animals and Toxins including Tropical Diseases, 2010
Infection of susceptible ruminants, including domestic cattle (Bos taurus) and American bison (Bison bison), with ovine herpesvirus-2 (OvHV-2) may provoke the fatal vasculitis and lymphoproliferative syndrome, known as malignant catarrhal fever (MCF ...

Ovine herpesvirus-2-encoded microRNAs target virus genes involved in virus latency. [PDF]

J Gen Virol, 2014
Herpesviruses encode microRNAs (miRNAs) that target both virus and host genes; however, their role in herpesvirus biology is understood poorly. We identified previously eight miRNAs encoded by ovine herpesvirus-2 (OvHV-2), the causative agent of malignant catarrhal fever (MCF), and have now investigated the role of these miRNAs in regulating expression

Molecular detection and phylogenetic analysis of ovine herpesvirus-2 in subclinical infections of cattle and sheep

Tropical Animal Health and Production
Abstract Ovine herpesvirus-2 (OvHV-2) is the causative agent of malignant catarrhal fever (MCF), a serious and often fatal disease that affects cattle and other ruminants.This study aimed to investigate the molecular epidemiology and genetic diversity of OvHV-2 strains circulating in sheep and cattle populations in the Jammu and Kashmir region ...

Molecular and phylogenetic analysis of herpesviruses in endangered free-ranging cervids of Chile: ovine gammaherpesvirus-2—A novel threat to wild and domestic animal health in Chilean Patagonia

Frontiers in Veterinary Science, 2023
IntroductionHerpesvirus infections have been highlighted as emerging diseases affecting wildlife health and the conservation of several taxa. Malignant catarrhal fever (MCF) and infectious keratoconjunctivitis (IKC) are two viruses that infect wild ...

Transmission of Ovine Herpesvirus 2 in Lambs [PDF]

Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 1998
ABSTRACT The pattern of acquisition of ovine herpesvirus 2 (OHV-2) infection in lambs was examined by a competitive-inhibition enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and PCR. Newborn lambs ( n = 118) did not exhibit antibody at birth. Viral DNA in peripheral blood leukocytes was detected in only 3% (

Gammaherpesvirus Infections in Cattle in Europe

Viruses, 2021
The genus Macavirus, subfamily Gammaherpesvirinae, comprises ungulate viruses that infect domestic and wild ruminants and swine. They cause asymptomatic latent infections in reservoir hosts and malignant catarrhal fever in susceptible species.

Identification of a Novel Astrovirus Associated with Bovine Respiratory Disease

Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2023, Issue 1, 2023., 2023
Astroviruses (AstVs) cause gastrointestinal disease in mammals and avians. Emerging evidence suggests that some AstVs have extraintestinal tissue tropism, with AstVs detected in the liver, kidney, central nervous system, and the respiratory tract variably associated with disease.

Malignant catarrhal fever in cattle in Spain

Veterinary Record Case Reports, Volume 10, Issue 4, December 2022., 2022
Abstract We report a case of malignant catarrhal fever in cattle in a mixed herd (ovine/bovine). The case occurred in the Basque Country (north of Spain) in April 2021. The infection was confirmed by polymerase chain reaction in a calf that had developed signs consistent with the ‘head and eye’ form of the disease.

Pathogen surveillance and epidemiology in endangered peninsular bighorn sheep (Ovis canadensis nelsoni)

Conservation Science and Practice, Volume 4, Issue 11, November 2022., 2022
Peninsular bighorn sheep (Ovis canadensis nelsoni) are federally endangered due to multiple threats, including introduced infectious disease. We found that Mycoplasma ovipneumoniae seroprevalence was associated with lower lamb recruitment at the population level, and the primary predictor of pathogen infection/exposure at the individual level was the ...
