Acute bovine viral diarrhoea virus infection inhibits expression of interferon tau-stimulated genes in bovine endometrium

Persistent bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVDV) infection in cattle herds

Bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVDV) is a significant pathogen associated with gastrointestinal, respiratory, and reproductive diseases of cattle worldwide. It causes continuous economic losses to the cattle industry primarily due to decreased reproductive performance. The ability of virus to cross the placenta during early pregnancy can result in the birth of persistently infected (PI) calves. P...

Persistent bovine viral diarrhoea virus infection in US beef herds.

In the summer of 1996, we screened 18,931 calves in 128 beef herds located in five US states for persistent bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVDV) infection. Of these, 76 herds were randomly selected from the client database of collaborating veterinary practices, and 52 herds were suspected by the collaborating veterinarians to have BVDV infection based on history or clinical signs. Serum was obtai...

Expression of herpes simplex virus ICP0 inhibits the induction of interferon-stimulated genes by viral infection.

The herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) mutant d109 does not express any of the immediate-early (IE) proteins and persists in cells for a prolonged length of time. As has been shown by Nicholl et al. (J. Gen. Virol. 81:2215-2218, 2000) and Mossman et al. (J. Virol. 75:750-758, 2001) using other mutants defective for IE gene expression, infection with d109 induced the expression of a number of i...

serological study of bovine viral diarrhoea virus infection of cattle in ahwaz

in order to investigate the prevalence of infection with bovine viral diarrhoea virus(bvdv) of cattle in ahvaz,blood samples were collected from jugular vein of 572 cattle(521 female, 51 male) from industrial and nonindustrial farms. sera were stored at -20?c while waiting for analysis. the sera were tested by elisa, using a commercial elisa kit for detection of specific antibody to bovine vira...
