DETECTION OF TORQUE TENO SUS VIRUS (TTSUV) IN CLINICAL SPECIMENS OF PIGS WITH CLASSICAL SWINE FEVER, PORCINE REPRODUCTIVE AND RESPIRATORY SYNDROME, AND PORCINE CIRCOVIRUS 2 INFECTIONS [PDF]
Torque teno sus viruses (TTSuVs) have never been implicated in the direct causation of any disease; however, their role as cofactors in the precipitation of certain disease conditions is gaining some support.

Background Postweaning multisystemic wasting syndrome (PMWS) is an emerging disease in swine. Pigs with PMWS are often infected with a variety of other pathogens, including bacteria, viruses and mycoplasm, in addition to porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2).

The combined usage of Matrine and Osthole inhibited endoplasmic reticulum apoptosis induced by PCV2
Background Porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2) is an important and common DNA virus that infect pig and can cause immunosuppression and induce apoptosis in the infected cells. To escape the host immune system, PCV2 constantly builds up complex mechanisms or

Balantidium coli in pig farms suspected of porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2) associated enteritis
Diarrhoea in growing-finishing pigs is a common problem of commercial pig farms. Among many causative factors, porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2) is one considered an important pathogen in modern pig production.

Epitope Mapping of the Major Capsid Protein of Type 2 Porcine Circovirus (PCV2) by Using Chimeric PCV1 and PCV2 [PDF]
ABSTRACT Type 2 porcine circovirus (PCV2) is associated with postweaning multisystemic wasting syndrome in pigs, whereas the genetically related type 1 PCV (PCV1) is nonpathogenic. In this study, seven monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) against PCV2-ORF2 capsid protein were generated, biologically characterized, and subsequently used to map the ...

Cellular adaptive immune response against porcine circovirus type 2 in subclinically infected pigs
Background Porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2) is a dominant causative agent of postweaning multisystemic wasting syndrome (PMWS), a multifactorial disease complex with putative immunosuppressive characteristics. Little is known about adaptive PCV2-specific

A Host Factor GPNMB Restricts Porcine Circovirus Type 2 (PCV2) Replication and Interacts With PCV2 ORF5 Protein [PDF]
Porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2) is the infectious agent of postweaning multisystemic wasting syndrome (PMWS). The recently discovered open reading frame 5 (ORF5) in PCV2 genome encodes a non-structural protein. Previous study revealed that ORF5 protein inhibits cell proliferation and may interact with host transmembrane glycoprotein NMB (GPNMB ...

A two-year follow-up study of the PCV2 status of a Danish pig herd that was initially assumed to be PCV2-free [PDF]
A longitudinal study was carried out to investigate whether a herd that had previously tested negative for porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2) by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) was free of PCV2 or whether the negative profiles indicate that the level of PCV2 varies over time.In eight Danish herds that had initially tested negative for PCV2 by ...

Porcine circovirus 2 (PCV2) population study in experimentally infected pigs developing PCV2-systemic disease or a subclinical infection [PDF]
AbstractPorcine circovirus 2 (PCV2) is a single stranded DNA virus with one of the highest mutation rates among DNA viruses. This ability allows it to generate a cloud of mutants constantly providing new opportunities to adapt and evade the immune system.
