Importance of L. Infantum H2B Recombinant Antigen for Serodiagnosis of Visceral Leishmaniasis
Background: Visceral leishmaniasis (VL) can lead to death in more than 95% of cases if left untreated. Accurate and early diagnosis has an important role in reducing mortality rate of this disease. Objective: To express recombinant H2B antigen from an Iranian isolate of Leishmania Infantum and evaluate its efficacy in the diagnosis of VL. Metho...
متن کاملAfrican Swine Fever
As it is well known, successful vaccination in many viral diseases was reached by classical empirical approaches: attenuated or inactivated virus-based vaccines, viral protein immunization, etc. However, previous attempts to develop vaccines against ASFV have not reached expectations and the reasons of several vaccination failures are unknown yet. Then, a deeper knowledge of basic virology ques...
متن کاملAfrican swine fever.
African swine fever (ASF) is a devastating haemorrhagic fever of pigs that causes up to 100% mortality, for which there is no vaccine. It is caused by a unique DNA virus that is maintained in an ancient cycle between warthogs and argasid ticks, making it the only known DNA arbovirus. ASF has a high potential for transboundary spread, and has twice been transported from Africa to other continent...
متن کاملAfrican Swine Fever: genomic
Many reports have been written describing the major rearrangements that occur during adaptation of ASF virus to tissue culture (2, 13, 15). Comparison of restriction enzyme site maps of genomes of tissue culture adapted virus with those of unadapted virus showed that most changes resulted from deletions or additions of sequences from regions close to both termini. In two different experiments (...
متن کاملAfrican swine fever : an overview
The African swine fever (ASF) is an expanding devastating viral disease currently threatening the pig industry worldwide. The virus is an icosahedral cytoplasmic deoxyribovirus (ICDV) of the Asfarviridae family. It is an arbovirus (transmitted by ticks) and it is the only arbovirus that contains DNA. Wild suids of Africa, mainly the warthog and bushpig, are the original vertebrate hosts of ASF....
