Prevention strategies against small ruminant lentiviruses: An update
The Veterinary Journal, 2009 Small ruminant lentiviruses (SRLVs), including maedi-visna virus (MVV) of sheep and caprine arthritis-encephalitis virus (CAEV), are widespread, cause fatal diseases and are responsible for major production losses in sheep and goats. Seventy years after the legendary maedi-visna sheep epidemic in Iceland, which led to the first isolation of a SRLV and ...

Influence of Small Ruminant Lentivirus Infection on Reproductive Traits in Ewes
Journal of Veterinary Research, 2013 The study included a sheep flock comprising five genetic groups. The ELISA was applied to perform constant monitoring (every six months) for the infection of ewes with small ruminant lentivirus (SRLV).

Diagnostic Assays Used to Control Small Ruminant Lentiviruses [PDF]
Journal of Veterinary Diagnostic Investigation, 2010 The serologic diagnostic tests, such as the agar gel immunodiffusion assay and various types of enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISAs), have contributed to the reduction of small ruminant lentivirus (SRLV) infections worldwide. Because there are no treatments or efficacious vaccines, the serologic diagnostic tests have supported most of the ...

Prevalência da infecção por lentivírus de pequenos ruminantes em caprinos em Teresina, Piauí
Arquivo Brasileiro de Medicina Veterinária e Zootecnia, 2011 The prevalence of anti-lentiviruses antibodies of small ruminants was investigated in goat herds in the city of Teresina, PI, Brazil. A seroepidemiological survey was conducted involving 480 animals, apparently healthy, belonging to six rural properties.

Genetic analysis of small ruminant lentiviruses following lactogenic transmission
Virology, 2010 Lactogenic transmission plays an important role in the biology of lentiviruses such as HIV and SIV or the small ruminant lentiviruses (SRLV). In this work we analyzed the characteristics of viruses that goats, naturally infected with two strains of SRLV, transmitted to their kids.

Comparative Analysis of Tat-Dependent and Tat-Deficient Natural Lentiviruses
Veterinary Sciences, 2015 The emergence of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) causing acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) in infected humans has resulted in a global pandemic that has killed millions. HIV-1 and HIV-2 belong to the lentivirus genus of the Retroviridae family.
