Detection of a new canine parvovirus mutant in Iran
BACKGROUND: Canine Parvovirus (CPV) is one of the major causes of fatal gastroenteritis in young dogs. After emergence of CPV-2, two new variants were reported and named CPV-2a and CPV-2b. In 2001 the newest variant was reported and named CPV-2c. The difference between CPV strains is related to amino acid changes in viral capsid protein (VP2). OBJECTIVES: The aim of the present study was geneti...
متن کاملCharacterization of Iranian Isolates of Canine Parvovirus in Fecal Samples Using Polymerase Chain Reaction Assay
Despite the widespread prevalence of canine parvovirus disease (CPV) in Iranian dog population,molecular diagnosis of CPV variants, and investigation of the trends of its genetic changes is a new effort. Inthis study 50 samples from dogs suspicious of infection with clinical signs of diarrhea and vomiting, and 25samples from dogs suspected of infection with general symptoms su...
متن کاملMolecular Characterization of canine parvovirus (CPV) antigenic variants from healthy and diarrheic dogs in Urmia region, Iran
Backgrounds: Canine parvovirus (CPV) has been incriminated as a primary pathogen related to acute hemorrhagic enteritis in dogs. Three major antigenic variants of CPV (CPV-2a/2b/2c) have so far been identified. Objectives: This study was carried out to investigate the frequency of CPV-2 and its variants (CPV-2a/2b/2c) in a population of healthy and diarrheic dogs in the north west of Iran. Meth...
متن کاملSimultaneous canine distemper encephalitis and canine parvovirus infection with distemper..
Simultaneous infection of canine distemper virus and canine parvovirus associated with distemper myocardial degeneration and necrosis is described in a pup. The dog demonstrated myoclonus, nystagmus, enamel hypoplasia, abdominal pustules, and bilateral corneal ulceration clinically. Demyelinating encephalitis, myocardial degeneration and necrosis with mineralization, and necrosis, hemorrhage an...
متن کاملBiomarkers in canine parvovirus enteritis.
Canine parvovirus (CPV) enteritis has, since its emergence in 1978, remained a common and important cause of morbidity and mortality in young dogs. The continued incidence of parvoviral enteritis is partly due to the virus' capability to evolve into more virulent and resistant variants with significant local gastrointestinal and systemic inflammatory sequelae. This paper reviews current knowled...
