  • Teschen Disease (Teschovirus Encephalomyelitis) Eradication in Czechoslovakia: a Historical Report
    Historical Report Veterinarni Medicina, 54, 2009 (11): 550–560 Teschen disease (Teschovirus encephalomyelitis) eradication in Czechoslovakia: a historical report V. Kouba* Prague, Czech Republic ABSTRACT: Teschen disease (previously also known as Klobouk’s disease), actually called Teschovirus encepha- lomyelitis, is a virulent fatal viral disease of swine, characterized by severe neurological disorders of encephalomy- elitis. It was initially discovered in the Teschen district of North-Eastern Moravia. During the 1940s and 1950s it caused serious losses to the pig production industry in Europe. The most critical situation at that time, however, was in the former Czechoslovakia. A nationally organized eradication programme started in 1952. That year the reported number of new cases of Teschen disease reached 137 396, i.e., an incidence rate of 2 794 per 100 000 pigs, in 14 801 villages with 65 597 affected farms, i.e., 4.43 affected farms per village and 2.10 diseased pigs per affected farm. The average territorial density of new cases was 1.07 per km2. For etiological diagnosis histological investigation of the central nervous system, isolation of virus and seroneutralization were used. Preventive meas- ures consisted in feeding pigs with sterilized waste food and in ring vaccination. Eradication measures took the form of the timely detection and reporting of new cases, isolating outbreak areas, and the slaughter of intrafocal pigs followed by sanitation measures. Diseased pigs were usually destroyed in rendering facilities. The carcasses of other intrafocal pigs were treated as conditionally comestible, i.e., only after sterilization. During the years 1952–1965 from a reported 537 480 specifically diseased pigs 36 558 died; i.e., Teschen disease mortality rate was 6.80% while other intrafocal pigs (88.12%) were urgently slaughtered.

Viral agents are important sources of contamination and frequently reported in food of animal origin. The goal of this study was to detect emerging enteric viruses in samples of industrialized foods of animal origin collected in establishments from southern of Brazil. In the analyzed samples, no Hepatitis E virus (HEV) genome was detected. However, 21.8% (21/96) of the samples were positive for Rotavirus (RVA) and 61.4% (59/96) for Adenovirus (AdV), including Human adenovirus-C (HAdV-C), Porcine adenovirus-3 (PAdV-3) and new type of porcine adenovirus PAdV-SVN1. In the present research, PAdV-SVN1 was detected in foods for the first time. The presence of these viruses may be related to poor hygiene in sites of food preparation, production or during handling. Key words: PAdV-SVN1, RV, gastroenteritis.

Among various strategies employed to construct bicistronic or multicistronic vectors, an internal ribosomal entry site (IRES) has been widely used. Due to the large size and difference in expression levels between genes before and after IRES, however, a new strategy was required to replace IRES. A self-cleaving 2A peptide could be a good candidate to replace IRES because of its small size and high cleavage efficiency between genes upstream and downstream of the 2A peptide. Despite the advantages of the 2A peptides, its use is not widespread because (i) there are no publicly available cloning vectors harboring a 2A peptide gene and (ii) comprehensive comparison of cleavage efficiency among various 2A peptides reported to date has not been performed in different contexts.

We discovered new host factors interacting with the influenza nuclear export protein (NEP) using an engineered influenza virus expressing NEP with an N-terminal 3xFLAG tag. We collected immunopurification mass spectrometry data for 3xFLAG-NEP during an active infection and during plasmid expression in HEK293T cells. Network analysis of these complementary datasets revealed an enrichment of tight junction proteins in the NEP interactome. Expression of NEP in MDCK cells results in inhibition of tight junction formation as measured by transepithelial electrical resistance and inulin diffusion across the polarized cell monolayer. These findings reveal

  • Picornaviruses: a View from 3A
    viruses Review Picornaviruses: A View from 3A Terry Jackson 1 and Graham J. Belsham 2,* 1 The Pirbright Institute, Pirbright, Woking, Surrey GU24 0NF, UK; [email protected] 2 Department of Veterinary and Animal Sciences, University of Copenhagen, 1870 Frederiksberg, Denmark * Correspondence: [email protected] Abstract: Picornaviruses are comprised of a positive-sense RNA genome surrounded by a protein shell (or capsid). They are ubiquitous in vertebrates and cause a wide range of important human and animal diseases. The genome encodes a single large polyprotein that is processed to structural (capsid) and non-structural proteins. The non-structural proteins have key functions within the viral replication complex. Some, such as 3Dpol (the RNA dependent RNA polymerase) have conserved functions and participate directly in replicating the viral genome, whereas others, such as 3A, have accessory roles. The 3A proteins are highly divergent across the Picornaviridae and have specific roles both within and outside of the replication complex, which differ between the different genera. These roles include subverting host proteins to generate replication organelles and inhibition of cellular functions (such as protein secretion) to influence virus replication efficiency and the host response to infection. In addition, 3A proteins are associated with the determination of host range. However, recent observations have challenged some of the roles assigned to 3A and suggest that other viral proteins may carry them out. In this review, we revisit the roles of 3A in the picornavirus life cycle. The 3AB precursor and mature 3A have distinct functions during viral replication and, therefore, we have also included discussion of some of the roles assigned to 3AB.
