[ 1 ] - The first study of bovine immunodeficiency virus (BIV) and brucellosis co-infection in west-central Iran

Background: BIV is a well-known bovine immunosuppressive cause, but its pathogenesis has not been well characterized. In recent years, it has been hypothesized that infection with BIV might predispose cattle to be infected by other agents. OBJECTIVE: This study was performed to investigate of BIV and Brucella co-infection so that in the future more studies will be done on the issue of predispos...

[ 2 ] - The first study of bovine immunodeficiency virus (BIV) and bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVDV) co- infection in industrial herds of cattle in two provinces of Iran

BIV is a well-known bovine immunosup-pressive cause, but its pathogenesis has not been well characterized. It seems that it is possible that cofactors such as co- infection with other bovine viral pathogens may play a role in enhancing the pathogenesis of BIV infection; BVDV also has immunosuppressive effects. OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was determination of possible correlation between BI...

[ 3 ] - طراحی و تولید رده»‌ سلولی بیان کننده ِ ژن‌های‌UTR’ 5 و ‌3NS از عامل اسهال ویروسی گاوها ‌(BVDV)‌ به منظور ارزیابی کارآیی روش‌های درمانی علیه این ویروس

زمینه مطالعه:‌ ‌عامل مولد اسهال ویروسی گاو ‌(BVDV)‌ عامل مضرات اقتصادی، بهداشتی قابل توجهی در مزارع پرورش گاو است. به دلیل ناکارآمدی نسبی برنامه‌های ریشه کنی این ویروس، در سال‌های اخیر برای مبارزه با  آن تدابیر متعدد ضد ویروسی نظیر ژن درمانی به فراوانی به کار گرفته شده است. یکی از روش‌های ارزیابی کیفیت این تدابیر، استفاده از این ابزارهای ضد ویروسی در رده‌های سلولی اختصاصی بیان کننده آن ژن از طر...
