Porcine Dendritic Cells and Viruses: An Update [PDF]
Viruses, 2019 Several viral infections of swine are responsible for major economic losses and represent a threat to the swine industry worldwide. New tools are needed to prevent and control endemic, emerging, and re-emerging viral diseases. Dendritic cells (DC) play a central role in linking the innate and adaptive arms of the immune system, so knowledge regarding ...

Porcine endogenous retrovirus and other viruses in xenotransplantation
Current Opinion in Organ Transplantation, 2009 Potential transmission of zoonotic porcine viruses is a major safety issue in xenotransplantation. This review will first summarize recent studies involving transmission and control of the major concern, porcine endogenous retrovirus (PERV). Second, the potential for zoonotic transfer and safety measures required against other viruses of concern will ...

Emergent Molecular Techniques Applied to the Detection of Porcine Viruses
Veterinary Sciences, 2023 Molecular diagnostic tests have evolved very rapidly in the field of human health, especially with the arrival of the recent pandemic caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus. However, the animal sector is constantly neglected, even though accurate detection by molecular tools could represent economic advantages by preventing the spread of viruses.

Porcine Deltacoronavirus-Related Viruses in House Sparrows
VirusesPorcine deltacoronavirus (PDCoV) is an emerging enteric pathogen in pigs and a newly recognized zoonotic coronavirus in humans. Genetic analyses suggest that PDCoV originated from avian deltacoronaviruses, with sparrow deltacoronaviruses (SpDCoVs) being the most closely related.

Structural and Functional Characterization of Porcine Adeno-Associated Viruses
VirusesCurrent gene therapy treatments utilizing adeno-associated virus (AAV) vectors are based on capsids of primate origin. However, pre-existing neutralizing anti-AAV antibodies, that are present in a significant portion of the population, can lead to vector inactivation and reduced therapeutic efficacy.

Simultaneous detection of three porcine viruses by multiplex PCR
Acta Veterinaria Hungarica, 2007 Specific oligonucleotide primers were selected and combined in a multiplex arrangement, in order to detect simultaneously three economically important porcine viruses by polymerase chain reaction (PCR). The pathogen panel was comprised of viruses that cause reproductive failure in infected herds: Aujeszky’s disease virus (ADV), porcine parvovirus (PPV)
