Phylogenetic Analysis of Belgian Small Ruminant Lentiviruses Supports Cross Species Virus Transmission and Identifies New Subtype B5 Strains

open access: yesPathogens, 2020
Small ruminant lentiviruses (SRLV) are a group of highly divergent viruses responsible for global and fatal infections in sheep and goats. Since the current phylogenetic classification of these viruses was proposed in 2004, it nowadays consists out of 5 ...

Detection of aluminium hydroxide‐induced granulomas in sheep by computed tomography: A feasible approach for small ruminant lentiviruses diagnosis and research

open access: yesVeterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 7, Issue 5, Page 1757-1761, September 2021., 2021
We describe the usefulness of CT for in vivo diagnose of subcutaneous granulomas in sheep. CT is an excellent tool to advance the diagnosis of subcutaneous Al‐induced granulomas in vivo and to boost further research in SRLV infections in sheep. Abstract Aluminium (Al) hydroxide use as adjuvant induces local formation of long‐lasting subcutaneous ...

Visna in a UK flock and the biosecurity risk arising from the onward sale of likely infected pedigree stock

open access: yesVeterinary Record Case Reports, Volume 9, Issue 3, September 2021., 2021
Abstract Small ruminant lentivirus infections in sheep most commonly present with respiratory signs (maedi) and indurative mastitis, while primary neurological signs (visna) have rarely been reported in Great Britain (GB). Most reports of visna describe signs referable to myelitis, although central signs associated with encephalitis may feature.

Genomic Epidemiology and Heterogeneity of SRLV in Italy from 1998 to 2019

open access: yesViruses, 2021
Small ruminant lentiviruses (SRLV) are viruses that retro-transcribe RNA to DNA and show high rates of genetic variability. SRLV affect animals with strains specific for each host species (sheep or goats), resulting in a series of clinical manifestations

Ovine Progressive Pneumonia: Diagnosis and Seroprevalence in the South of Sonora, Mexico

open access: yesCase Reports in Veterinary Medicine, Volume 2021, Issue 1, 2021., 2021
Ovine progressive pneumonia (OPP) is the most severe presentation of small ruminant lentivirus (SRLV) infection known as Maedi‐Visna. Serological evidence in Mexico of the presence of this lentivirus was published in 1986. After that, studies revealed that SRLVs have a broad distribution in Mexico by detecting antibodies or/and molecular tests; however,

Immune response dynamics of recent and chronic small ruminant lentivirus infection in the male reproductive system

open access: yesSemina: Ciências Agrárias, 2023
The objective of this study was to analyze the immune responses of bucks to small ruminant lentivirus (SRLV) with a focus on the reproductive system of males with recent and chronic infection.

Comparison of immunoassay and real-time PCR methods for the detection of Jembrana disease virus infection in Bali cattle [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
A sensitive diagnostic assay for the detection of infections with the bovine lentivirus Jembrana disease virus (JDV) is required in Indonesia to control the spread of Jembrana disease. Immunoassays are used routinely but are compromised by cross-reactive

Study of compartmentalization in the visna clinical form of small ruminant lentivirus infection in sheep [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Background A central nervous system (CNS) disease outbreak caused by small ruminant lentiviruses (SRLV) has triggered interest in Spain due to the rapid onset of clinical signs and relevant production losses.
