Molecular epidemiology of porcine Cytomegalovirus (PCMV) in Sichuan Province, China: 2010-2012. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Porcine cytomegalovirus (PCMV) is an immunosuppressive virus that mainly inhibits the immune function of the macrophage and T-cell lymphatic systems, and has caused huge economic losses to the porcine breeding industry.

Presence of porcine cytomegalovirus, a porcine roseolovirus, in wild boars in Italy and Germany. [PDF]

open access: yesArch Virol, 2023
Abstract Porcine cytomegalovirus (PCMV), a porcine roseolovirus (PRV) that is closely related to human herpesviruses 6 and 7, is commonly found in commercial pigs. PCMV/PRV is important in xenotransplantation, because in preclinical trials in which pig organs were transplanted into non-human primates, transmission of PCMV/PRV was ...

Porcine Lymphotropic Herpesviruses (PLHVs) and Xenotranplantation

open access: yesViruses, 2021
Porcine lymphotropic herpesviruses -1, -2 and -3 (PLHV-1, PLHV-2 and PLHV-3) are gammaherpesviruses which are widespread in pigs. They are closely related to the Epstein–Barr virus (EBV) and Kaposi sarcoma herpesvirus, both of which cause severe diseases

Impact of porcine cytomegalovirus on long-term orthotopic cardiac xenotransplant survival. [PDF]

open access: yesSci Rep, 2020
Abstract Xenotransplantation using pig organs has achieved survival times up to 195 days in pig orthotopic heart transplantation into baboons. Here we demonstrate that in addition to an improved immunosuppressive regimen, non-ischaemic preservation with continuous perfusion and control of post-transplantation growth of the transplant,

PCR Assay for Detecting Porcine Cytomegalovirus [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Microbiology, 1999
ABSTRACT This is the first published report of a PCR assay for detecting porcine cytomegalovirus (PCMV), the causative agent of inclusion body rhinitis in pigs. The DNA to be tested was extracted directly from lungs and nasal scrapings of pigs with various clinical syndromes. Fifty-nine percent (74 of 126) of tested pigs with various clinical

Experimental transplacental transmission of porcine cytomegalovirus [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Hygiene, 1977
SUMMARYSix serologically negative sows were infected by intranasal instillation of porcine cytomegalovirus (PCMV) between 31 and 85 days of pregnancy. Four sows showed an afebrile anorexia and lethargy 14–25 days after infection and all 6 developed significant increases in indirect immunofluorescent (IIF) antibody titres within 35 days.
