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

Understanding the Enigmatic Dance of Immune-Mediated Viral Infections and Their Pathogenetic Mechanisms. [PDF]
This graphical representation illustrates the multifaceted nature of the immune response in viral infections, demonstrating both its protective and potentially harmful aspects. While a properly regulated immune reaction facilitates viral clearance and promotes general recovery, an overly robust or misdirected response—exemplified by Type III or Type IV

Recombinant CA Protein-Based ELISA for Serological Detection of Small Ruminant Lentiviruses Antibodies. [PDF]
Maedi‐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,
