arteritis virus (EAV). EAV infected horses show various clinical sings such as pyrexia, edema of the legs, conjunctivitis, and diarrhea. Abortion occurs in pregnant mares infected with EAV, at a rate of approximately 50% during field epizootics.

متن کاملBluetongue and equine viral arteritis viruses as models of virus-induced fetal injury and abortion.
A number of viruses have the capacity to cross the placenta and infect the fetus to cause, among other potential outcomes, developmental defects (teratogenesis), fetal death and abortion. Bluetongue virus (BTV) infection of fetal ruminants provides an excellent model for the study of virus-induced teratogenesis. This model has shown that only viruses modified by passage in cell culture, such as...
