A Polytropic Caprine Arthritis Encephalitis Virus Promoter Isolated from Multiple Tissues from a Sheep with Multisystemic Lentivirus-Associated Inflammatory Disease [PDF]
Viruses, 2013 Caprine arthritis encephalitis virus (CAEV) is a lentivirus that infects both goats and sheep and is closely related to maedi-visna virus that infects sheep; collectively, these viruses are known as small ruminant lentiviruses (SRLV).

The Gene Expression Profile of Milk Somatic Cells of Small Ruminant Lentivirus-Seropositive and -Seronegative Dairy Goats (Capra hircus) During Their First Lactation [PDF]
VirusesCaprine arthritis and encephalitis (CAE), caused by small ruminant lentivirus (SRLV), is a key disease of goats, with chronic inflammation of joints and brain symptoms leading to losses in milk production and animal trade. In this study, we analyzed gene

Identification of New Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms Potentially Related to Small Ruminant Lentivirus Infection Susceptibility in Goats Based on Data Selected from High-Throughput Sequencing [PDF]
PathogensSmall ruminant lentivirus (SRLV) infections are spread in the flocks of sheep and goats all over the world, causing economic loss. Although only a fraction of infected animals develop disease symptoms, all of them may shed the virus, causing uncontrolled

Comparison of serological and molecular methods for differentiation between genotype A and genotype B strains of small ruminant lentiviruses [PDF]
Journal of Veterinary ResearchSmall ruminant lentiviruses (SRLV) cause multisystemic, degenerative and chronic disease in sheep and goats. There are five genotypes (A, B, C, D and E), of which A and B are the most widespread.

Duration of passive immunity to small ruminant lentiviruses in lambs [PDF]
Semina: Ciências Agrárias, 2014 In order to evaluate the passive immunity against small ruminant lentiviruses (SRLV) in lambs, this study was conducted from two experimental groups. The first one (G1) was established by nine lambs subjected to artificial feeding of colostrum of goats ...

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

Recombinant CA Protein-Based ELISA for Serological Detection of Small Ruminant Lentiviruses Antibodies. [PDF]
Transbound Emerg DisMaedi‐visna (MV) and caprine arthritis encephalitis (CAE) are important viral diseases of sheep and goats. The diseases are caused by a group of genetically closely related lentiviruses known as small ruminant lentiviruses (SRLV), and are collectively referred to as SRLV infections. As the majority of sheep and goats infected with SRLV are asymptomatic,
