Porcine Corneal Tissue and Xenozoonotic Risks: A Review of the Current Evidence

Xenotransplantation, Volume 32, Issue 6, November/December 2025.
ABSTRACT Corneal opacities affect millions worldwide, with corneal transplantation as the primary treatment. However, donor shortages remain a challenge, leaving thousands waiting for transplants. Xenotransplantation using porcine corneas has emerged as a promising alternative due to anatomical and physiological similarities with human corneas ...

The Evaluation of a Porcine Circovirus Type 2 (PCV2) Intradermal Vaccine Against a PCV2 Field Strain

Vaccines
Background/Objectives: Porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2) has a major impact on swine productivity. Vaccines are used to aid in control and mitigate production losses. We investigated the protection provided by an intradermal PCV2 vaccine against a field strain in Taiwan. Methods: We conducted a safety and efficacy study.

Replicative intermediates of porcine circovirus in animal tissue cultured cells or in bacteria undergoing copy-release replication [PDF]

, 2012
Porcine circovirus (PCV) has been assumed to replicate its genome via the rolling-circle replication (RCR) mechanism because it encodes a Rep protein that contains several amino acid motifs commonly found in other RCR biological systems.

Endothelial Changes at Different Stages After Ischemic Stroke Contribute to the Regulation of Immune Cell Infiltration

CNS Neuroscience &Therapeutics, Volume 31, Issue 5, May 2025.
In the acute phase of ischemic stroke, the proliferation of venous ECs increased, with high ICAM‐1 expression, promoting the infiltration of myeloid cells. In the chronic phase, as venous ECs repaired, their antigen presentation function was enhanced, and VCAM‐1 expression increased, facilitating the infiltration of lymphocytes. ABSTRACT Aims Following
