Etiology, Epizootiology and Control of Maedi-Visna in Dairy Sheep: A Review

Animals, 2020
Maedi-visna (MV) in sheep is caused by maedi-visna virus (MVV), a small ruminant lentivirus (SRLV) that causes chronic infection and inflammatory lesions in infected animals.

Immunogenetics of Small Ruminant Lentiviral Infections

Viruses, 2014
The small ruminant lentiviruses (SRLV) include the caprine arthritis encephalitis virus (CAEV) and the Maedi-Visna virus (MVV). Both of these viruses limit production and can be a major source of economic loss to producers.

Molecular characterization and phylogenetic analysis of small ruminant lentiviruses isolated from Canadian sheep and goats

Virology Journal, 2011
Background Small Ruminant Lentiviruses (SRLV) are widespread in Canadian sheep and goats and represent an important health issue in these animals. There is however no data about the genetic diversity of Caprine Arthritis Encephalitis Virus (CAEV) or ...

Characterization of a recombinant Sendai virus vector encoding the small ruminant lentivirus gag-P25: antiviral properties in vitro and transgene expression in sheep

Veterinary Research
Small ruminant lentiviruses (SRLV) cause multisystemic chronic inflammatory disease and significant economic losses in sheep and goats worldwide. However, no vaccines or therapies are currently available.

A Combined Approach for the Characterization of Small Ruminant Lentivirus Strains Circulating in the Islands and Mainland of Greece

Animals
Small ruminant lentiviruses are a group of viruses infecting goat and sheep worldwide. These viruses exhibit an extraordinary degree of genetic and antigenic variability that severely influence in vivo and in vitro features, as well as diagnostic test ...

First Report of SNPs Detection in TMEM154 Gene in Sheep from Poland and Their Association with SRLV Infection Status

Pathogens
Small ruminant lentiviruses (SRLVs) infect sheep, causing a multiorganic disease called maedi-visna or ovine progressive pneumonia, which significantly affects the production and welfare of sheep, generating serious economic losses.

Infection of primary cultures of mammary epithelial cells by small ruminant lentiviruses.

Veterinary research, 1999
The caprine arthritis-encephalitis virus (CAEV) and Visna Maedi virus cause persistent infections with long latent periods and induce degenerative and chronic inflammatory lesions of the central nervous system, joints, lungs and udder. Monocyte/macrophage lineage is the main target cell for CAEV and Visna Maedi virus but we speculate that mammary ...
