Equid Herpesvirus Type 1 Activates Platelets
Equid herpesvirus type 1 (EHV-1) causes outbreaks of abortion and neurological disease in horses. One of the main causes of these clinical syndromes is thrombosis in placental and spinal cord vessels, however the mechanism for thrombus formation is unknown. Platelets form part of the thrombus and amplify and propagate thrombin generation. Here, we tested the hypothesis that EHV-1 activates plat...
متن کاملMolecular characterization of Brazilian equid herpesvirus type 1 strains based on neuropathogenicity markers
Partial nucleotide sequences of ORF72 (glycoprotein D, gD), ORF64 (infected cell protein 4, ICP4) and ORF30 (DNA polymerase) genes were compared with corresponding sequences of EHV-1 reference strains to characterize the molecular variability of Brazilian strains. Virus isolation assays were applied to 74 samples including visceral tissue, total blood, cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and nasal swabs ...
متن کاملGenomic study of Argentinean Equid herpesvirus 1 strains.
Equid herpesvirus 1 (EHV-1) infection has a significant economic impact on equine production, causing abortion, respiratory disease, neonatal death and neurological disorders. The identification of specific EHV-1 genes related to virulence and pathogenicity has been the aim of several research groups. The purpose of the present study was to analyze different genomic regions of Argentinean EHV-1...
متن کاملThe characterization of neutralizing and non-neutralizing monoclonal antibodies against equid herpesvirus type 1.
Seven monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) were produced which recognized equid herpesvirus type 1 (EHV-1). Three MAbs neutralized the subtype 1 virus (strain Army 183) in the presence of complement, but did not neutralize the subtype 2 virus (strain MD). All three MAbs immunoprecipitated an Mr 83K glycoprotein from a detergent-solubilized virion envelope preparation of the subtype 1 virus. The target ...
متن کاملComplete Genome Sequence of Equid Herpesvirus 3
Equid herpesvirus 3 (EHV-3) is a member of the subfamily Alphaherpesvirinae that causes equine coital exanthema. Here, we report the first complete genome sequence of EHV-3. The 151,601-nt genome encodes 76 distinct genes like other equine alphaherpesviruses, but genetically, EHV-3 is significantly more divergent.
