Oxidant-antioxidant imbalance in the experimental interstitial lung disease induced in sheep by visna-maedi virus [PDF]
European Respiratory Journal, 1996 Infection of sheep by visna-maedi virus causes an interstitial pneumonitis similar to that associated with human immunodeficiency virus type-1 (HIV-1). Visna-maedi virus infection of alveolar macrophages leads to their activation. In this study we determined whether an imbalance in oxidant-antioxidant activity may be involved in the pathogenesis of the

Development and comparison of strain specific gag and pol real-time PCR assays for the detection of Visna/maedi virus [PDF]
Journal of Virological Methods, 2010 The aim of this study was the development of gag and pol dual labelled probe real-time PCR and RT PCR assays to quantify the proviral load and the transcripts of the British Visna/maedi virus EV1 strain. Primers and probes were chosen based on the consensus sequences of gag and pol clones representative of EV1 genetic variants.

Veterinary Record, Volume 192, Issue 11, 3/10 June 2023., 2023 Abstract Background Small ruminant lentiviruses (SRLVs) are lentiviruses of sheep and goats, formerly known as maedi–visna (MV) in sheep and caprine encephalitis and arthritis in goats. In sheep, SRLVs commonly cause progressive pneumonia, wasting and indurative mastitis.

Failure to detect Schmallenberg virus RNA in ram semen in the UK (2016–2018)
Veterinary Record Open, Volume 9, Issue 1, December 2022., 2022 Abstract Background Schmallenberg virus (SBV) is a midge‐borne arbovirus that first emerged in the European ruminant population in 2011 and has since settled to an endemic pattern of disease outbreaks on an approximately 4‐year cycle when herd immunity from the previous circulation drops to a point allowing renewed widescale virus circulation.

Veterinary Record, Volume 191, Issue 3, 6/13 August 2022., 2022 Abstract Background Transthoracic ultrasonography (TTUS) is currently the only widely used method to diagnose preclinical or subclinical ovine pulmonary adenocarcinoma (OPA) in the live sheep. However, little is known about the test characteristics of TTUS.

Association of Ovar‐DRB1 alleles with innate immune responses in sheep
Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 8, Issue 2, Page 752-757, March 2022., 2022 Results of this study provided additional support for the association between Ovar‐DRB1 alleles and regulation of immune responses in sheep population. Description of MHC polymorphism and its role in the controlling of immune responses will increase our understanding of host‐pathogen interactions, and ultimately facilitate the selection of disease ...

A novel enterovirus in lambs with poliomyelitis and brain stem encephalitis
Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 69, Issue 2, Page 227-234, March 2022., 2022 Abstract An Austrian organic dairy sheep farm experienced cases of recumbency and sudden deaths in 3‐ to 4‐week‐old lambs. Two animals were subjected to thorough clinical and pathological investigations. Pathohistological analysis identified severe nonsuppurative myelitis and mild nonsuppurative encephalitis.
