Comparative analysis of ankyrin (ANK) genes of five capripoxviruses isolate strains from Xinjiang province in China

Virology Journal, 2020
Background Sheeppox and goatpox are both economically important animal diseases in which pathogens are goatpox virus (GTPV) and sheeppox virus (SPPV). They can’t cause cross-species infection between sheep and goats in general. But in recent decades, the

Rapid Preclinical Detection of Sheeppox Virus by a Real-Time PCR Assay [PDF]

Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 2008
ABSTRACT Sheeppox virus (SPPV) is a member of the Capripoxvirus (CaPV) genus of the Poxviridae family. Members of this genus, which also include goatpox and lumpy skin disease viruses, cause economically significant disease in sheep, goats, and cattle. A rapid diagnostic

Potential link of single nucleotide polymorphisms to virulence of vaccine‐associated field strains of lumpy skin disease virus in South Africa

Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 67, Issue 6, Page 2946-2960, November 2020., 2020
Abstract South Africa is endemic for lumpy skin disease and is therefore reliant on various live attenuated vaccines for the control and prevention of the disease. In recent years, widespread outbreaks of vaccine‐like strains of lumpy skin disease virus (LSDV) were reported internationally, leading to an increase in the generation of full genome ...

Sero-Prevalence and Risk Factors for Sheeppox in Kordofan States in Sudan [PDF]

, 2021
Abstract Background Sheeppox and goatpox are viral diseases of sheep and goats causing high morbidity and mortality leading to large economic losses for producers. The viruses are transmitted primarily through direct contact between infected animals.

Innate Immune Responses to Wildtype and Attenuated Sheeppox Virus Mediated Through RIG-1 Sensing in PBMC In-Vitro

Frontiers in Immunology, 2021
Sheeppox (SPP) is a highly contagious disease of small ruminants caused by sheeppox virus (SPPV) and predominantly occurs in Asia and Africa with significant economic losses. SPPV is genetically and immunologically closely related to goatpox virus (GTPV)

Modulation of macrophage functions by sheeppox virus provides clues to understand interaction of the virus with host immune system

Virology Journal, 2005
Background Poxviruses encode a range of immunomodulatory genes to subvert or evade the challenges posed by the innate and adaptive immune responses. However, the inactivated poxviruses possessed immunostimulating capacity and were used as a prophylactic ...
