• Gammaherpesvirinae consists of the following seven genera: Bossavirus Lymphocryptovirus Macavirus Manticavirus Patagivirus Percavirus Rhadinovirus Additionally, the following three species are unassigned to a genus: Equid gammaherpesvirus 7 Phocid gammaherpesvirus 2 Saguinine gammaherpesvirus 1 Viruses in Gammaherpesvirinae are enveloped, with icosahedral, spherical to pleomorphic, and round geometries, and T=16 symmetry. (wikipedia.org)
  • Paramyxoviridae encompasses a group of large (300-500 nm in diameter), enveloped, pleomorphic viruses with RNA genomes of 14.6-20.1 kb. (cdc.gov)
  • Tosoviridae is a family of negative-sense RNA viruses with genomes of about 12.3 kb (Table 1. (ictv.global)
  • Viruses of the family Tosoviridae have bisegmented genomes, with each segment possessing two ORFs in ambisense orientation that are separated by non-coding intergenic regions (IGRs) (Figure 2. (ictv.global)
  • The family Herpesviridae, which contains eight viruses that infect humans, is the most extensively studied group within this order and comprises three subfamilies, namely Alphaherpesvirinae, Betaherpesvirinae and Gammaherpesvirinae. (wikipedia.org)
  • Paramyxoviruses known to naturally infect swine include porcine rubulavirus, Menangle virus, Nipah virus, and porcine parainfluenza virus ( 11 - 16 ). (cdc.gov)
  • Gammaherpesvirinae is a subfamily of viruses in the order Herpesvirales and in the family Herpesviridae. (wikipedia.org)
  • Surprisingly, latency-deficient and, therefore, apathogenic MHV-68 mutants are found to be highly effective vaccines against these viruses. (wikipedia.org)
  • The Morbillivirus genus includes measles virus, canine distemper virus (CDV), phocine distemper virus (PDV), peste des petits ruminants virus, rinderpest virus, and feline morbillivirus. (cdc.gov)
  • Less well-characterized paramyxoviruses associated with central nervous and respiratory disease in pigs also have been reported ( 17 - 20 ), but none of these viruses are classified in the genus Morbillivirus . (cdc.gov)
  • The family includes a single genus with one species for one virus. (ictv.global)
  • These viruses have been found in trionychid and emydid testudines (softshell turtles and cooters) in Florida, USA. (ictv.global)
  • Herpesviruses represent a group of double-stranded DNA viruses distributed widely within the animal kingdom. (wikipedia.org)
  • Paramyxoviridae encompasses a group of large (300-500 nm in diameter), enveloped, pleomorphic viruses with RNA genomes of 14.6-20.1 kb. (cdc.gov)
  • Viruses that establish lifelong latent infections must ensure that the viral genome is maintained within the latently infected cell throughout the life of the host, yet at the same time must also be capable of avoiding elimination by the immune surveillance system especially must avoid being detected by host CD8+ cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs). (wikipedia.org)
  • In the mouse, combined infections of Sendai virus and M. pulmonis are responsible for the most severe outbreaks of natural respiratory disease, although Sendai virus infection alone also can cause severe disease when first introduced into a naive population of genetically susceptible mice. (nih.gov)
  • Streptococcus pneumoniae and Corynebacterium kutscheri are potent respiratory pathogens in the rat but seldom in the absence of some combination involving M. pulmonis, Sendai virus, and/or CAR bacillus. (nih.gov)
  • Sialodacryoadenitis virus (see "Digestive System" later in this volume) is listed here as some strains are also mild respiratory pathogens. (nih.gov)
  • Plasmablastic lymphoma is usually a rare and aggressive diffuse large B-cell lymphoma commonly associated with Epstein-Barr virus co-infection that most often occurs in the context of human immunodeficiency virus infection. (healthweblognews.info)
  • While this pathway commonly predominates in the mammalian poxviruses, the avian viruses (e.g. canarypox virus, fowlpox virus and pigeonpox virus) appear to form EV directly by budding of MV through the cell membrane, rather than by intermediate formation of WV. (ictv.global)
  • Excretory stem cells give rise to squamous cell and mucoepidermoid carcinomas, while intercalated stem cells give rise to pleomorphic adenomas, oncocytomas, adenoid cystic carcinomas, adenocarcinomas, and acinic cell carcinomas. (drtbalu.co)
  • Squamous cell carcinomas arise from excretory duct cells, pleomorphic adenomas arise from the intercalated duct cells, oncocytomas arise from the striated duct cells, and acinic cell carcinomas arise from acinar cells. (drtbalu.co)
  • Gammaherpesviruses are of primary interest due to the two human viruses, EBV (Epstein-Barr virus) and KSHV (Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus) and the diseases they cause. (wikipedia.org)
  • The original isolations of the virus were made in the 1950s from mice that had been inoculated for diagnostic purposes using specimens from: (a) human infants with "newborn pneumonitis" in Japan, (b) swine with an influenza-like disease in Japan, or (c) humans with influenza in Russia. (nih.gov)
  • For instance canarypox virus encodes 51 proteins of the ankyrin repeat family. (ictv.global)
  • Because development of an influenza virus vaccine had been a high priority of the U.S. military during World War II to avert another 1918 disaster, basic procedures for virus isolation and serologic diagnoses were well established. (cdc.gov)
