Analysis of the Pathogenetic Basis for Shedding and Transmission of Ovine Gamma Herpesvirus 2 [PDF]

Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 2002
ABSTRACT Ovine herpesvirus 2 (OvHV-2), a member of the viral subfamily Gammaherpesvirinae , shares numerous similarities with human herpesvirus 8 (HHV-8). Both viruses are apathogenic in their healthy original host, may cause lymphoprolipherative diseases, cannot routinely be propagated in cell culture ...

Ovine herpesvirus type 2-induced malignant catarrhal fever in a heifer

Semina: Ciências Agrárias, 2014
The clinical, pathological, and molecular findings due to malignant catarrhal fever lesions induced by ovine herpesvirus type 2 (OvHV-2) are described in a 12-month-old, mixed-breed, heifer from northern Paraná, Brazil.

Evaluation of glycoprotein Ov8 as a potential antigen for an OvHV-2-specific diagnostic assay. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2018
Gammaherpesviruses in the genus Macavirus establish clinically unapparent persistent infections in reservoir species. Transmission of some of these viruses, including alcelaphine herpesvirus 1 (AlHV-1) and ovine herpesvirus 2 (OvHV-2), to clinically ...

Porcine Lymphotropic Herpesviruses (PLHVs) and Xenotranplantation

Viruses, 2021
Porcine lymphotropic herpesviruses -1, -2 and -3 (PLHV-1, PLHV-2 and PLHV-3) are gammaherpesviruses which are widespread in pigs. They are closely related to the Epstein–Barr virus (EBV) and Kaposi sarcoma herpesvirus, both of which cause severe diseases

Ovine herpesvirus 2 lytic cycle replication and capsid production

Journal of General Virology, 2002
Ovine herpesvirus 2 (OvHV-2) causes malignant catarrhal fever in cattle, pigs and deer. We have observed intact circular and linear OvHV-2 genomes in infected T cell lines derived from cows and rabbits. Bovine T cell lines were predominantly latently infected but rabbit T cell lines supported OvHV-2 productive cycle gene expression and virus capsids ...

Detection of ovine herpesvirus-2 in clinical cases of sheep-associated malignant catarrhal fever in balinese cattle and apparently healthy sheep in East Nusa Tenggara

BIO Web of Conferences, 2021
Malignant catarrhal fever (MCF) is a disease causing a fatal outcome in cattle and generates economic losses worldwide. This study aims to detect the cause of the disease in Balinese cattle showing clinical signs such as high fever, serous ocular ...

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 ...

Quantitative Fluorogenic PCR Assay for Measuring Ovine Herpesvirus 2 Replication in Sheep [PDF]

Clinical Diagnostic Laboratory Immunology, 2001
ABSTRACT A fluorogenic PCR specific for ovine herpesvirus 2 (OvHV-2) DNA was developed and compared to a previously established conventional seminested PCR. Testing of a total of 152 blood samples from both positive and negative animals revealed that the results of both assays corresponded to each other in 100% of the cases.

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
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 ...

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 ...
