First Isolation of Equine Herpesvirus Type 1 from a Horse with Neurological Disease in Brazil
This report describes the first Brazilian equine herpesvirus type 1 (EHV-1) isolation from a single fatal equine herpes myeloencephalopathy case in a mare. The isolation of EHV-1 was confirmed from the first passage of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) sample in Vero cells by PCR and virus neutralization assay. As virus isolation from CSF is unlikely to be successful, as has been shown in several case ...
متن کاملA critical view on Equine Herpesvirus-1 and on Equine Herpesvirus-associated Myeloencephalopathy (EHM)

In 2008 the USDA declared this syndrome an ‘emerging disease’ among horse populations in the U.S.A., which indicates that EHM is perceived as an expanding problem that is observed more frequently when compared ...
متن کاملThe trigeminal ganglion is a location for equine herpesvirus 1 latency and reactivation in the horse.
Four specific pathogen-free ponies were infected intranasally with equine herpesvirus 1 (EHV-1) and two were similarly infected with an EHV-1 thymidine kinase deletion mutant. The primary infections were characterized by a transient fever accompanied by virus shedding into nasal mucus and viraemia. No virus was detected in clinical specimens after 15 days post-infection. Two months later a reac...
متن کاملTitle : A retrospective study on equine herpesvirus type - 1 associated
Diagnosis of equine herpesvirus-1 associated myeloencephalopathy (EHM) can be troublesome, but early recognition and knowledge of risk factors are essential for prevention and control. The objectives for this study are to 1) describe EHM in France, 2) improve clinical recognition, 3) identify risk factors. Through epidemiosurveillance of acute neurological cases (all considered to be potentiall...
متن کاملEquine herpesvirus-1 consensus statement.
Equine herpesvirus-1 is a highly prevalent and frequently pathogenic infection of equids. The most serious clinical consequences of infection are abortion and equine herpesvirus myeloencephalopathy (EHM). In recent years, there has been an apparent increase in the incidence of EHM in North America, with serious consequences for horses and the horse industry. This consensus statement draws toget...
