Experimental Airborne Transmission of Porcine Postweaning Multisystemic Wasting Syndrome [PDF]
The objective of these studies was to investigate if porcine postweaning multisystemic wasting syndrome (PMWS) could be induced in healthy pigs following contact with air from pigs with clinical signs of PMWS.

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 ...

PCV2 infection aggravates OTA-induced immunotoxicity in vivo and in vitro
Ochratoxin A (OTA), frequently existing in the food and feeds, could induce immunotoxicity. Porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2), as a primary causative agent of porcine circovirus–associated disease, also could induce immunosuppression. However, it is still

Comparison of serum pools and oral fluid samples for detection of porcine circovirus type 2 by quantitative real-time PCR in finisher pigs [PDF]
Background Porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2) diagnostics in live pigs often involves pooled serum and/or oral fluid samples for group-level determination of viral load by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qPCR).

Immunity Elicited by an Experimental Vaccine Based on Recombinant Flagellin-Porcine Circovirus Type 2 Cap Fusion Protein in Piglets. [PDF]
In a recent study, we reported that a recombinant protein from fusion expression of flagellin to porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2) Cap induced robust humoral and cell-mediated immunity that afforded full protection for PCV2 infection using BALB/c mice ...

Co-infecção por circovírus suíno tipo 2 e parvovírus suíno em fetos abortados e natimortos suínos no Sul do Brasil [PDF]
Estudou-se retrospectivamente (2005-2007) a associação de casos de abortos e natimortos suínos com infecções por circovírus suíno (PCV) tipos 1 e 2 e parvovírus suíno (PPV). Outros agentes patogênicos foram pesquisados em amostras de fetos com lesões.

Cepharanthine and Curcumin inhibited mitochondrial apoptosis induced by PCV2 [PDF]
Abstract Background: Porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2) is an immunosuppressive pathogen with high prevalence rate in pig farms. It has caused serious economic losses to the global pig industry. Due to the rapid mutation of PCV2 strain and co-infection of different genotypes, vaccination could not eradicate the infection of PCV2.
