Porcine Circovirus Type 2 and Porcine Circovirus‐Associated Disease [PDF]
Porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2) belongs to the viral family Circoviridae and to the genusCircovirus. Circoviruses are small, single‐stranded nonenveloped DNA viruses that have an unsegmented circular genome. PCV2 is the primary causative agent of several syndromes collectively known as porcine circovirus‐associated disease (PCVAD).

Host immune response to infection with porcine circoviruses
Porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2), which serves as a major causative agent of PCV2-associated diseases and causes severe loss to the pig industry worldwide, can dysregulate the immune response and induce immunosuppression in PCV2-infected pigs. Similar to

Sensitive detection systems for infectious agents in xenotransplantation*
Abstract Xenotransplantation of pig cells, tissues, or organs may be associated with transmission of porcine microorganisms, first of all of viruses, to the transplant recipient, potentially inducing a disease (zoonosis). I would like to define detection systems as the complex of sample generation, sample preparation, sample origin, time of sampling ...

Novel Circovirus in Blood from Intravenous Drug Users, Yunnan, China
We identified a novel circovirus (human-associated circovirus 2 [HuCV2]) from the blood of 2 intravenous drug users in China who were infected with HIV-1, hepatitis C virus, or both. HuCV2 is most closely related to porcine circovirus 3.
