Visna virus RNA synthesis [PDF]
Visna is a classical slow infection in which virus characteristically persists in the face of the host immune response. The agent of this disease belongs to the retravirus group. The persistence of infection and the slow spread of virus are at least in part a consequence of restriction of the expression of virus genetic information in tissues of an ...

Characterization of visna virus mRNA [PDF]
Visna virus is a retrovirus responsible for a classical slow infection of the central nervous system of sheep. In the present work we focused our attention on the viral mRNA's. We found that, during the acute infection in vitro, (i) viral mRNA's amount to only 0.1% of the total cytoplasmic RNA, (ii) 20% of the total cytoplasmic viral RNA is found in ...

Substructures and Polypeptides of Visna Virus [PDF]
The protein of Visna virus, disrupted by 8 M guanidine hydrochloride and heating, was resolved into 10 polypeptides by agarose gel column chromatography in 6 M guanidine hydrochloride. Two of the peaks contained glycopolypeptides. Nonidet-disrupted virions were resolved into two fractions by potassium tartrate gradient centrifugation, with densities of

Produção de antígeno nucleoprotéico do vírus da artrite-encefalite caprina e comparação com o do vírus Maedi-Visna para utilização em teste de imunodifusão em ágar gel [PDF]
Foi feita uma comparação entre os antígenos (Ag), preparados a partir dos vírus Maedi-Visna (MVV) e Artrite-encefalite Caprina (CAEV) para detecção de anticorpos contra o CAEV em 120 amostras de soro caprino.

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

Pathological, molecular, and serological study of small ruminant lentiviruses in Jordan [PDF]
Background and Aim: Maedi-visna is a chronic viral disease of sheep with worldwide distribution causing substantial economic losses to the small ruminant industry. Pneumonia and mastitis are the main manifestations of the disease.

Longitudinal study on seroreactivity of goats exposed to colostrum and milk of small ruminant lentivirus–infected dams [PDF]
Small ruminant lentivirus (SRLV) causes caprine arthritis-encephalitis in goats and maedi-visna disease in sheep. Transmission is via ingestion of colostrum and milk from infected dams or long-term direct contact between animals.
