Use of Cyclosporine and Itraconazole as Palliative Treatment for Proventricular Dilatation Disease in Psittacine Birds

Veterinary Sciences
Proventricular dilatation disease (PDD) is a neurologic syndrome of birds caused by the infectious agent Psittacine Bornavirus (PaBV). Clinical disease may be based on the T-cell-mediated immune response to PaBV within the central and peripheral nervous ...

Are anti-ganglioside antibodies associated with proventricular dilatation disease in birds? [PDF]

PeerJ, 2017
The identification of Parrot bornaviruses (PaBV) in psittacine birds with proventricular dilatation disease (PDD) has not been sufficient to explain the pathogenesis of this fatal disease, since not all infected birds develop clinical signs. Although the

Homozygous CADPS2 Mutations Cause Neurodegenerative Disease with Lewy Body‐like Pathology in Parrots

Movement Disorders, Volume 37, Issue 12, Page 2345-2354, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Background Several genetic models that recapitulate neurodegenerative features of Parkinson's disease (PD) exist, which have been largely based on genes discovered in monogenic PD families. However, spontaneous genetic mutations have not been linked to the pathological hallmarks of PD in non‐human vertebrates. Objective To describe the genetic

Genomics and pathogenesis of the avian coronavirus infectious bronchitis virus

Australian Veterinary Journal, Volume 100, Issue 10, Page 496-512, October 2022., 2022
Infectious bronchitis virus (IBV) is a member of the family Coronaviridae, together with viruses such as SARS‐CoV, MERS‐CoV and SARS‐CoV‐2 (the causative agent of the COVID‐19 global pandemic). In this family of viruses, interspecies transmission has been reported, so understanding their pathobiology could lead to a better understanding of the ...

Squamous gastric ulceration complicated by gastric stenosis in a foal

Equine Veterinary Education, Volume 34, Issue 9, Page e369-e374, September 2022., 2022
Summary A 2‐month‐old Warmblood colt presented with recurrent colic and regurgitation. Gastroscopy, performed on several occasions, and barium‐contrast radiography revealed severe squamous gastric ulceration and stenosis at the level of the margo plicatus.

New World camelids are sentinels for the presence of Borna disease virus

Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 69, Issue 2, Page 451-464, March 2022., 2022
Abstract Borna disease (BD), a frequently fatal neurologic disorder caused by Borna disease virus 1 (BoDV‐1), has been observed for decades in horses, sheep, and other mammals in certain regions of Europe. The bicoloured white‐toothed shrew (Crocidura leucodon) was identified as a persistently infected species involved in virus transmission.
