Whole genome sequencing of an avipoxvirus associated with infections in a group of aviary-housed snow buntings (Plectrophenax nivalis)
(American Association of Zoo Veterinarians, 2020-01-09)
Avipoxvirus infections have been reported in both free-ranging and domestic birds worldwide. Fowlpox and canarypox viruses belong to the genus Avipoxvirus among the virus family Poxviridae. They cause cutaneous lesions ...
Chicken astrovirus (CAstV) molecular studies reveal evidence of multiple past recombination events in sequences originated from clinical samples of white chick syndrome (WCS) in Western Canada
(MDPI, 2020-09-28)
In this study, we aimed to molecularly characterize 14 whole genome sequences of chicken
astrovirus (CAstV) isolated from samples obtained from white chick syndrome (WCS) outbreaks
in Western Canada during the period of ...
Coinfections and their molecular consequences in the porcine respiratory tract
(BMC, 2020-06-16)
Understudied, coinfections are more frequent in pig farms than single infections. In pigs, the term “Porcine Respiratory Disease Complex” (PRDC) is often used to describe coinfections involving viruses such as swine Influenza ...
Bird species involved in west nile virus epidemiological cycle in southern Québec
(MDPI, 2020-06-23)
Despite many studies on West Nile Virus (WNV) in the US, including the reservoir role of
bird species and the summer shifts of the Culex mosquito, feeding from birds to mammals, there have
been few equivalent studies in ...
Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus whole-genome sequencing efficacy with field clinical samples using a poly(A)-tail viral genome purification method
(Sage, 2020-08-28)
The genomic surveillance of porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) is based on sequencing of the ORF5 gene of the virus, which covers only 4% of the entire viral genome. It is expected that PRRSV ...
Bronchial angiogenesis in asthmatic horses
(2020-09-15)
L'asthme équin est une maladie inflammatoire chronique des voies respiratoires
inférieures caractérisée principalement par des changements structuraux menant à un
épaississement de la paroi des bronches et à l’obstruction ...
Whole genome sequencing of porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus 2 (PRRSV) from field clinical samples improves the genomic surveillance of the virus
(American society for microbiology, 2020-08-12)
Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) is a major
economic concern worldwide. There are currently large data sets available about the
ORF5 gene of the virus, with thousands of sequences available, ...
Studies of molecular pathways associated with blood neutrophil corticosteroid insensitivity in equine asthma
(2020-03-10)
L’asthme équin est caractérisé par une hyperactivité bronchique, une inflammation neutrophilique, et des altérations structurelles des voies aériennes. Chez les patients asthmatiques présentant une inflammation neutrophilique, ...
Eugenol and other vanilloids hamper caenorhabditis elegans response to noxious heat
(Springer, 2020-10-29)
Eugenol, a known vanilloid, was frequently used in dentistry as a local analgesic in addition, antibacterial and neuroprotective effects were also reported. Eugenol, capsaicin and many vanilloids are interacting with the ...
Distinct miRNA profile of cellular and extracellular vesicles released from chicken tracheal cells following avian influenza virus infection
(MDPI, 2020-08-05)
Innate responses provide the first line of defense against viral infections, including the
influenza virus at mucosal surfaces. Communication and interaction between different host cells at
the early stage of viral ...
