First detection and complete genome analysis of porcine circovirus‐like virus P1 and porcine circovirus‐2 in yak in China [PDF]
Porcine circovirus‐like virus P1, like porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2), is a potential pathogen of post‐weaning multisystemic wasting syndrome in swine.

Post weaning multisystemic wasting syndrome (PMWS) was first recognized in Canada in 1996 as a new emerging disease which caused wasting in post weaned pigs. Since then, PMWS has been recognized globally during the last decade. The present study was carried out to study occurrence of PMWS in pigs of organized pig farms in northern states of India i.e ...

SummaryPost‐weaning multisystemic wasting syndrome (PMWS) is a complex disease syndrome in swine, affecting nursery and fattening pigs. Although ongoing evidence suggests that porcine circovirus type‐2 (PCV2) is the causal agent of PMWS, the host immune system appears to have a crucial role in the PMWS pathogenesis of PCV2‐affected pigs.

Changes in the severity of post-weaning multisystemic wasting syndrome (PMWS) and the effect of vaccination against porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2) on the severity of PMWS and the prevalence of PCV2 were assessed on 50 English pig farms from 2008 to 2010.

Pigs with wasting syndrome were examined for macroscopic and histopathological lesions, and for porcine circovirus (PCV). Histopathological lesions were comparable to those previously documented for post-weaning multisystemic wasting syndrome (PMWS). In addition, in seven out of ten examined PMWS-affected pigs focal-to-slight mononuclear meningitis and

Identification of the Effects of 5-Azacytidine on Porcine Circovirus Type 2 Replication in Porcine Kidney Cells [PDF]
Porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2) is the main pathogen causing post-weaning multisystemic wasting syndrome (PMWS), which mainly targets the body’s immune system and poses a serious threat to the global pig industry.

Isolation, Genome Phylogenetic Analysis and In vitro Rescue of a Newly Emerging Porcine Circovirus Type 2 [PDF]
Porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2) is the major causative agent of post-weaning multisystemic wasting syndrome (PMWS). Infection by PCV2 may cause heavy losses in pig industry.

Prevalence of the NovelTorque Teno Sus VirusSpecies k2b from Pigs in the United States and Lack of Association with Post-Weaning Multisystemic Wasting Syndrome or Mulberry Heart Disease [PDF]
The family Anelloviridae includes a number of viruses infecting humans (Torque teno viruses, TTV) and other animals including swine (Torque teno sus viruses, TTSuV). Two genetically distinct TTSuV species have been identified from swine thus far (TTSuV1 and TTSuVk2), although their definitive association with disease remains debatable. In 2012, a novel

In this paper we present the results from two experimental studies (I and II) investigating whether post-weaning multisystemic wasting syndrome (PMWS) can be induced in pigs from PMWS unaffected herds by mingling with pigs from PMWS-affected herds and to observe whether transportation and/or mingling of healthy pigs from unaffected herds could induce ...

A retrospective study for the detection of porcine circovirus 2 (PCV-2) DNA was conducted by nested PCR method in 16 cases of swine post-weaning multisystemic wasting syndrome (PMWS) in Thailand. Histopathology showed characteristic lesions of PMWS and intracytoplasmic viral inclusion bodies in macrophages infiltrating in lymphoid tissues.
