Vertical transmissibility of small ruminant lentivirus. [PDF]

PLoS One, 2020
This study aimed to evaluate by means of Nested Polymerase Chain Reaction (nPCR), co-cultivation and sequencing, with genetic comparison between strains (mother/newborn), the occurrence of vertical transmission of Small Ruminant Lentiviruses (SRLV) from naturally occurring nannies infected for their offspring.

Western Blot in Immunodiagnosis of Small Ruminant Lentivirus [PDF]

Acta Scientiae Veterinariae, 2021
Background: Small ruminant lentiviruses (SRLV) belong to genus Lentivirus, family Retroviridae. These viruses cause caprine arthritis encephalitis (CAE) and maedi visna (MV), infectious diseases that cause economic, production, and reproductive losses. There are no effective treatments or vaccines for these diseases.

The epidemiological background of small ruminant lentivirus infection in goats from Romania. [PDF]

Vet World, 2020
Background and Aim: Caprine arthritis-encephalitis (CAE) is an economically significant viral disease of goats caused by a small ruminant lentivirus (SRLV) belonging to Retroviridae family. This study aimed to summarize current information on the epidemiological status of SRLVs infection in the population of goats from Romania and to point out the CAE ...

Small ruminant lentivirus infections and diseases [PDF]

Veterinary Microbiology, 2015
Small ruminant lentiviruses include viruses with diverse genotypes that frequently cross the species barrier between sheep and goats and that display a great genetic variability. These characteristics stress the need to consider the whole host range and to perform local surveillance of the viruses to opt for optimum diagnostic tests, in order to ...

Small ruminant lentivirus genotype E is widespread in Sarda goat [PDF]

Veterinary Microbiology, 2010
The highly divergent SRLV genotype E has recently been characterized in Italy as a low pathogenic caprine lentivirus in the Roccaverano breed. The availability of a genotype specific diagnostic test based on a comparative assay, using a combination of genotype specific recombinant antigens allows a wide serosurvey in other goat populations.

An outbreak of small ruminant lentivirus in a Swedish dairy goat herd

Veterinary Record Case Reports, Volume 11, Issue 4, December 2023., 2023
Abstract Small ruminant lentivirus causes severe economic losses, and negatively affects animal welfare in goat herds across the world. The aim of this study was to describe the clinical and pathological consequences of the disease in an affected goat herd, as well as to sequence the virus in infected animals. Seventy‐six percent of the sampled animals

Detection of small ruminant Lentivirus proviral DNA in red deer from Poland. [PDF]

BMC Vet Res
AbstractSmall ruminant lentiviruses (SRLVs) are widespread and infect goats and sheep. Several reports also suggest that SRLVs can infect wild ruminants. The presence of specific antibodies against SRLVs has been identified in wild ruminants from Poland, but no studies have been conducted to detect proviral DNA of SRLVs in these animals. Therefore, the

B‐cell leukemia in an adult sheep

Veterinary Clinical Pathology, Volume 52, Issue 4, Page 716-721, December 2023., 2023
Abstract B‐cell leukemia is a rare form of hematologic neoplasia in sheep, especially in adult animals. We present a case report of a 5‐year‐old WhiteFace Sheep wether with suspected acute lymphoblastic leukemia. The patient, a second‐generation relative of ewes experimentally inoculated with atypical scrapie, exhibited acute lethargy and loss of ...

Small ruminant lentivirus genetic subgroups associate with sheep TMEM154 genotypes. [PDF]

Vet Res, 2013
Abstract Small ruminant lentiviruses (SRLVs) are prevalent in North American sheep and a major cause of production losses for the U.S. sheep industry. Sheep susceptibility to SRLV infection is influenced by genetic variation within the ovine transmembrane 154 gene (TMEM154).

Mannose receptor may be involved in small ruminant lentivirus pathogenesis. [PDF]

Vet Res, 2012
Abstract Thirty-one sheep naturally infected with small ruminant lentiviruses (SRLV) of known genotype (A or B), and clinically affected with neurological disease, pneumonia or arthritis were used to analyse mannose receptor (MR) expression (transcript levels) and proviral load in virus target tissues (lung, mammary gland, CNS and carpal ...
