Shedding of Ovine Herpesvirus 2 in Sheep Nasal Secretions: the Predominant Mode for Transmission [PDF]

Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 2004
ABSTRACT Ovine herpesvirus 2 (OvHV-2), the major causative agent of malignant catarrhal fever in ruminant species worldwide, has never been propagated in vitro. Using real-time PCR, a striking, short-lived, peak of viral DNA, ranging from 10 5 to over 10 8 copies/2 μg of DNA, was ...

MOLECULAR CHARACTERISATION OF OVINE HERPESVIRUS TYPE 2 (OvHV-2) IN TURKEY

, 2012
In this study, the physical examination of 22 cattle revealed clinical signs of malignant catarrhal fever (MCF). Peripheral blood leukocyte (PBL) samples of the 22 cattle, and nasal (n = 7) and conjunctival (n = 9) swab samples from 16 sheep from two ...

Cross-Reactivity of Neutralizing Antibodies among Malignant Catarrhal Fever Viruses.

PLoS ONE, 2015
Some members of the gamma herpesvirus genus Macavirus are maintained in nature as subclinical infections in well-adapted ungulate hosts. Transmission of these viruses to poorly adapted hosts, such as American bison and cattle, can result in the ...

Ovine herpesvirus 2 replicates initially in the lung of experimentally infected sheep

Journal of General Virology, 2008
Ovine herpesvirus 2 (OvHV-2), a rhadinovirus in the subfamilyGammaherpesvirinae, is the causative agent of sheep-associated malignant catarrhal fever (SA-MCF), a frequently fatal lymphoproliferative disease primarily of ruminants worldwide. Inability to propagate the virusin vitrohas made it difficult to study OvHV-2 replication. Aerosol inoculation of

A possible case of caprine-associated malignant catarrhal fever in a domestic water buffalo (Bubalus bubalis) in Switzerland

BMC Veterinary Research, 2011
Background Malignant catarrhal fever (MCF) is a fatal herpesvirus infection, affecting various wild and domestic ruminants all over the world. Water buffaloes were reported to be particularly susceptible for the ovine herpesvirus-2 (OvHV-2) causing the ...

Impact of BoLA‐DRB3 Polymorphisms on Clonality of Bovine Leukaemia Virus‐Infected Cells of Cattle With Lymphoma

HLA, Volume 107, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Bovine leukaemia virus (BLV) infects cattle, integrates into the host genome as a provirus, and induces a persistent infection that remains asymptomatic but can cause leukaemia/lymphoma. Most BLV‐infected cell clones are created by massive depletion, and a few of these infected cell clones expand through the mitotic cycle, leading to the onset

Malignant Catarrhal Fever: Polymerase Chain Reaction Survey for Ovine Herpesvirus 2 and Other Persistent Herpesvirus and Retrovirus Infections of Dairy Cattle and Bison

, 2000
Using a polymerase chain reaction (PCR) test for sequences of ovine herpesvirus 2 (OHV2), this virus was shown to be significantly associated with sheep-associated malignant catarrhal fever (SA-MCF) in terminal cases of disease in 34 cattle and 53 bison.

Towards Integrated Surveillance of Marine Brucellosis: Diagnostic and Phylogenetic Assessment of Brucella ceti in Stranded Dolphins of the Western Mediterranean Sea

Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Reports of brucellosis in free‐ranging cetaceans are increasing worldwide, particularly in the Mediterranean Sea. To enhance diagnostic accuracy and epidemiological understanding of cetacean brucellosis in the Western Mediterranean Sea, we analyzed bacteriological, serological, and molecular data from 30 cetaceans belonging to three different species ...
