Clinical and computed tomography findings of fatal poxviral vasculitis in a domestic shorthair cat
Veterinary Record Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 2, May 2026.Abstract This report describes the clinical presentation, haematological abnormalities and imaging findings of systemic poxvirus infection in a cat that resulted in widespread severe dermal oedema and systemic inflammatory response syndrome. The cat lacked cutaneous lesions before the onset of dermal oedema, but developed crusting skin lesions and a ...

A System Based-Approach to Examine Cytokine Response in Poxvirus-Infected Macrophages
Viruses, 2018 The poxviruses are large, linear, double-stranded DNA viruses about 130 to 230 kbp, that have an animal origin and evolved to infect a wide host range.

Genome Variability and Gene Content in Chordopoxviruses: Dependence on Microsatellites
Viruses, 2015 To investigate gene loss in poxviruses belonging to the Chordopoxvirinae subfamily, we assessed the gene content of representative members of the subfamily, and determined whether individual genes present in each genome were intact, truncated, or ...

Annual Review of ImmunologyPoxviruses have evolved a wide array of mechanisms to evade the immune response, and we provide an overview of the different immunomodulatory strategies. Poxviruses prevent the recognition of viral DNA that triggers the immune responses and inhibit signaling pathways within the infected cell. A unique feature of poxviruses is the production of secreted

Berlin Squirrelpox Virus, a New Poxvirus in Red Squirrels, Berlin, Germany
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2017 Near Berlin, Germany, several juvenile red squirrels (Sciurus vulgaris) were found with moist, crusty skin lesions. Histology, electron microscopy, and cell culture isolation revealed an orthopoxvirus-like infection.

Dermatoses of nipple as molluscum contagiosum – Clinical dilemma
Journal of Family Medicine and Primary Care, 2018 Molluscum contagiosum is a very common skin and mucosal disease of viral origin, caused by molluscum contagiosum virus (MCV) 0 of poxvirus family. With the eradication of smallpox, MCV is the only member of the poxvirus family that causes substantial ...

Novel Poxvirus in Big Brown Bats, Northwestern United States
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2013 A wildlife hospital and rehabilitation center in northwestern United States received several big brown bats with necrosuppurative osteomyelitis in multiple joints. Wing and joint tissues were positive by PCR for poxvirus. Thin-section electron microscopy

Host-derived pathogenicity islands in poxviruses
Virology Journal, 2005 Background Poxviruses are important both as pathogens and as vaccine vectors. Poxvirus genomes (150–350 kb) consist of a single linear dsDNA molecule; the two polynucleotide strands are joined by short hairpin loops.

Modulation of chemokines by poxvirus infections
Current Opinion in Immunology, 2000 Viruses that successfully replicate within the host have devised strategies to subvert or evade the challenges posed by the innate and adaptive immune responses. Many investigators are now beginning to dissect the diverse and complex interactions involving chemokines, chemokine receptors and viral infection.

A logistic regression model to predict the next rabies virus host-shift event
Scientific ReportsRabies virus (RABV) host-shift events (HSEs) are thought to be promoted by viral genomic and ecological factors, but the relative balance of the two is unclear.
