Immunity to porcine rubulavirus infection in adult swine

Veterinary Immunology and Immunopathology, 1998
The immune response against the porcine rubulavirus was analyzed in experimentally infected adult pigs. High titers of virus neutralizing and hemagglutinating inhibitory antibodies were identified in infected animals. The antibody specificity was directed towards HN, M, and NP rubula virion proteins; immunodominance of HN proteins was demonstrated ...

Persistence of porcine rubulavirus in experimentally infected boars

Veterinary Microbiology, 2013
Porcine rubulavirus is the etiological agent of blue eye disease in pigs. In boars, this virus causes orchitis and epididymitis and reduces seminal quality. The objective of this study was to determine the persistence of porcine rubulavirus in experimentally infected boars.

Uptake of Porcine Rubulavirus (LPMV) by PK-15 Cells

Archives of Medical Research, 2001
The porcine virus denominated La Piedad Michoacan Virus (LPMV) is a member of the family Paramyxoviridae and is the cause of a disease in pigs present only in Mexico. The disease is characterized by meningoencephalitis and respiratory distress in young pigs, epididymitis and orchitis in boars, and reproductive failure and abortion in sows.The ...

Experimental Porcine Rubulavirus (La Piedad-Michoacan virus) Infection in Pregnant Gilts

Journal of Comparative Pathology, 2004
Porcine rubulavirus (La Piedad-Michoacan virus) (PoRV-LPMV) is a member of the Paramyxoviridae family that causes encephalitis in young piglets and infertility in adult sows and boars. Infertility in sows naturally infected by PoRV-LPMV is characterized by an increased number of returns to oestrus, stillbirths and mummified fetuses. In this study, nine

Secondary structure prediction of the hemagglutinin-neuraminidase from a porcine rubulavirus

Archives of Virology, 1998
The Hemagglutinin-Neuraminidase (HN) from 'La Piedad, Michoacan' porcine rubulavirus (LPMV) interacts specifically with NeuAc alpha 2,3 lactose residues on the target cell. In this work we report the secondary structure of this protein, determined with five different theoretical algorithms.

Purification and characterization of the Hemagglutinin-Neuraminidase of porcine rubulavirus LPMV

Glycoconjugate Journal, 1999
The Hemagglutinin-Neuraminidase (HN) from the LPMV strain of Porcine rubulavirus was purified from virions by ultracentrifugation in a continuous 20-60% sucrose gradient and by ion exchange chromatography. The HN is a glycoprotein of 66 kDa constituted by 50.5, 13.3 and 13.6% of non polar, uncharged polar, and charged polar amino acids, respectively ...

Purification of the Porcine rubulavirus attachment protein by liquid isoelectric focusing

Protein Expression and Purification, 2004
Porcine rubulavirus (PoRV) is an emerging virus responsible for meningoencephalitis, respiratory distress, and reproductive alterations in pigs. The hemagglutinin-neuraminidase (HN) glycoprotein is the most exposed and antigenic of the virus proteins.

NeuAcα2,3Gal-Glycoconjugate Expression Determines Cell Susceptibility to the Porcine Rubulavirus LPMV

Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology Part B: Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, 1997
Relevance of membrane sialoglycoconjugates as receptors for infection by the porcine rubulavirus has been determined in vitro by sugar and lectin competition assays and by inhibition of glycosylation. Our results show that NeuAc alpha 2,3Gal but not NeuAc alpha 2,6Gal inhibits the virus infectivity of Vero cells, and the virus was effectively blocked ...

Molecular characterisation of Porcine rubulavirus (PorPV) isolates from different outbreaks in Mexico

Virus Genes, 2016
Since the report of the initial outbreak of Porcine rubulavirus (PorPV) infection in pigs, only one full-length genome from 1984 (PorPV-LPMV/1984) has been characterised. To investigate the overall genetic variation, full-length gene nucleotide sequences of current PorPV isolates were obtained from different clinical cases of infected swine.
