Analysis of Codon Usage Pattern in the DNA Polymerase Gene of Porcine Cytomegalovirus
The analysis of the codon usage pattern of Porcine Cytomegalovirus (PCMV) DPOL gene has both theoretical and practical value in understanding the basics of molecular biology and selecting appropriate expression systems to improve the expression level. In

Porcine cytomegalovirus in pigs being bred for xenograft organs: progress towards control
In human medicine, human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) is readily transmitted by organ transplant causing end-organ disease and triggering graft rejection in recipients. Because of a chronic shortage of human organs, pigs transgenic for human complement control

Activation of Cytomegalovirus in Pig-to-Primate Organ Xenotransplantation
Xenotransplantation of porcine organs carries the risk of reactivation of latent virus in donor and recipient tissues as well as transmission of viruses between species. We have investigated the activation of baboon cytomegalovirus (BCMV) and porcine CMV

Porcine endogenous retrovirus (PERV), porcine cytomegalovirus (PCMV), and porcine lymphotropic her- pesvirus (PLHV) are common porcine viruses that may be activated with immunosuppression for xenotrans- plantation.

Background—Recent survivals of our pig-to-baboon kidney xenotransplants have been markedly shorter than the graft survivals we previously reported. The discovery of high levels of porcine CMV (pCMV) in one of the rejected xenografts led us to evaluate ...

Genetically engineered pig heart transplantation in non-human primates
Background Improvement in gene modifications of donor pigs has led to the prevention of early cardiac xenograft rejection and significantly prolonged cardiac xenograft survival in both heterotopic and orthotopic preclinical non-human primate (NHP) models.

Porcine cytomegalovirus (PCMV) is a Betaherpesvirus that causes lifelong latent infections in swine; occasionally, it may be associated with inclusion body rhinitis in piglets and reproductive disorders in pregnant sows.

Porcine cytomegalovirus : studies on the viral genome and development of novel diagnostic techniques [PDF]
Porcine cytomegalovirus (PCMV) is a recognised pathogen in pigs causing reproductive failure, piglet mortality, rhinitis and possibly retarded growth. The virus is highly prevalent in pig populations worldwide. The introduction of PCMV in nonimmune herds

Field-Based Assessment of the Role of Porcine Cytomegalovirus in Respiratory Disease of Nursery Pigs
Porcine cytomegalovirus (PCMV) is an ubiquitous infectious agent in swine population throughout the world. Field and some experimental observations have suggested that PCMV plays an important role in causing or enhancing respiratory and/or reproductive ...
