Equine herpesvirus 1 (EHV-1): characterisation of a viral strain isolated from equine plasma in Argentina
Strain "LP-3" of equine herpesvirus 1 (EHV-1), isolated from plasma of horses with clinical signs of rhinopneumonitis, was characterised by cultural, physicochemical, electron microscopic, serological and immunohistochemical studies. This was the first isolation from Argentine horses with respiratory disease. Another strain, SP-1, was isolated in the same laboratory from an aborted fetus in 1980.
متن کاملPolymorphism of open reading frame 71 of equine herpesvirus-4 (EHV-4) and EHV-1.
Open reading frame (ORF) 71 genes of both equine herpesvirus-1 (EHV-1) and EHV-4 encode a unique glycoprotein, which has been described to vary in molecular mass from 200 to 450 kDa. Using PCR and nucleotide sequence analysis, it was shown that the ORF 71 genes of EHV-1 and EHV-4 are polymorphic due to a variable number of reiterated sequences in two regions, designated regions A and B. Region ...
متن کاملComparative Analysis of Glycoprotein B (gB) of Equine Herpesvirus Type 1 and Type 4 (EHV-1 and EHV-4) in Cellular Tropism and Cell-to-Cell Transmission
Glycoprotein B (gB) plays an important role in alphaherpesvirus cellular entry and acts in concert with gD and the gH/gL complex. To evaluate whether functional differences exist between gB1 and gB4, the corresponding genes were exchanged between the two viruses. The gB4-containing-EHV-1 (EHV-1_gB4) recombinant virus was analyzed for growth in culture, cell tropism, and cell entry rivaling no s...
متن کاملDiverse pathogenicity of equine herpesvirus 1 (EHV-1) isolates in CBA mouse model.
The pathogenicity of equine herpesvirus 1 (EHV-1) isolates of Japan were evaluated by using the CBA mouse model. CBA mice were inoculated with eight Japanese EHV-1 strains (89c1, 90c16, 90c18, 97c11, 98c12, 00c19, 01c1 and HH-1) and one British strain (Ab4p). 89c1 caused slight body weight loss and nervous signs in mice at 8 days post infection (dpi). Severe weight loss and nervous signs were o...
متن کاملEquine herpesvirus type 1 (EHV-1) replication in primary murine neurons culture.
Equine herpesvirus-1 (EHV-1) infections cause significant economic losses for equine industries worldwide as a result of abortion, respiratory illness, and neurologic disease in all breeds of horses. The occurrence of abortions caused by EHV-1 has repeatedly been confirmed in Poland, but neurological manifestations of the infection have not been described yet. Also it is unknown how the infecti...
