Porcine Circovirus Type 2 (PCV2): Pathogenesis and Interaction with the Immune System

Annual Review of Animal Biosciences, 2013
Porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2) is the primary causative agent of porcine circovirus–associated disease (PCVAD). The virus preferentially targets the lymphoid tissues, which leads to lymphoid depletion and immunosuppression in pigs. The disease is exacerbated by immunostimulation or concurrent infections with other pathogens.

Genetic characterization and phylogenetic analysis of porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2) in Serbia

Archives of Virology, 2011
Porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2) is the main causative agent of postweaning multisystemic wasting syndrome (PMWS). To characterize and determine the genetic diversity of PCV2 in the porcine population of Serbia, nucleotide and deduced amino acid sequences of the open reading frame 2 (ORF2) of PCV2 collected from the tissues of pigs that either had died

[Porcine circovirus type 2 and PCV2-systemic disease--a review].

Sheng wu gong cheng xue bao = Chinese journal of biotechnology, 2016
Porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2) can cause immunosuppression on herds. PCV2, as an essential pathogen of PCV2-systemic disease (PCV2-SD), has caused considerable economic losses in pig industry worldwide. Here we review and address the evolution, viral protein and immunolesion of PCV2 and preventive techniques of PCV2-SD.

Shedding and infection dynamics of porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2) after natural exposure

Veterinary Microbiology, 2011
The objective of this study was to determine the amount of porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2) shed in nasal, oral and fecal secretions over time following natural PCV2 infection. Fecal, oral and nasal swabs and blood were collected at regular intervals starting at 28 days post-farrowing (DPF) until 209 DPF from four pigs naturally infected with PCV2 ...

Experimental Transmission of Porcine Circovirus Type 2 (PCV2) in Weaned Pigs:a Sequential Study

Journal of Comparative Pathology, 2000
Weaned specific pathogen-free pigs were inoculated intranasally with porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2) and killed in groups of two or three animals at 6, 13, 20, 27 and 34 days post-inoculation (dpi), together with appropriate uninfected controls, for examination by histopathological, immunohistochemical (immunogold silver staining; IGSS), polymerase ...

Can Porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2) infection be eradicated by mass vaccination?

Veterinary Microbiology, 2014
The feasibility to eradicate Porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2) in a conventional PCV2 infected farm by vaccinating both sows and piglets using a commercially subunit vaccine was assessed. Vaccination strategy implied that all sows, boars and gilts of the farm were vaccinated every four months, and all piglets vaccinated and revaccinated with the same ...

Exploring and Characterizing the Endonuclease of Porcine Circovirus Type 2 (PCV2)

This study delves into the activities and substrate specificities of Porcine Circovirus Type 2 (PCV2) endonucleases, shedding light on their structural and functional characteristics. Through a targeted approach, we expressed and purified both wild-type PCV2 and a catalytically inactive mutant (dPCV), facilitating a comparative analysis of their ...

Phylogenetic analysis of porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2) isolates in Croatia - Update

2011
Studija se bavi filogenetskom analizom sojeva PCV2 izoliranih u svinja i divljih svinja u ovoj studiji i u prijašnjim studijama u Hrvatskoj. Izdvojeno je ukupno 17 novih cijelokupnih sekvenci PCV2. Većina pripada podtipu B, te je po prvi puta izdvojen i podtip A virusa.
