Equine herpesvirus type 9 (EHV-9), which we isolated from a case of epizootic encephalitis in a herd of Thomson's gazelles (Gazella thomsoni) in 1993, has been known to cause fatal encephalitis in Thomson's gazelle, giraffe, and polar bear in natural infections. Our previous report indicated that EHV-9 was similar to the equine pathogen equine herpesvirus type 1 (EHV-1), which mainly causes abo...

Feline herpesvirus-1 (FHV-1) atau feline viral rhinotracheitis (FVR) merupakan agen penyakit saluran respirasi atas yang penting pada kucing. Hal ini disebabkan transmisi mudah. Kucing terinfeksi melalui kontak langsung dengan sekreta konjungtival oronasal dari kucing terinfeksi. Tujuan studi yaitu melihat kondisi patologi secara makroskopik dan mikroskopis diduga virus rhinotracheitis. Organ d...

Alcelaphine herpesvirus type 1, a rhadinovirus causing malignant catarrhal fever of ruminants, has an 1959 nucleotide open reading frame with significant homologies to semaphorin genes. While truncated genes of similar structure have been found in poxviruses, this is the first known example of a semaphorin-like gene in a herpesvirus.

The disease is caused by members of the gammaherpesviruses group. Alcelaphine herpesvirus-1 (AHV-1), carried asymptomatically by the wildebeest (Connochaetes taurinus) in Africa, has been diagnosed in disease outbreaks in zoos in North America. Ovine herpesvirus-2 (OHV-2) is carried asymptomatically by sheep (117). A third, as yet unnamed virus, has been detected in an outbreak of MCF in white-...

Endotheliotropic elephant herpesvirus (elephantid herpesvirus 1; ElHV-1) is apathogenic for African elephants (Loxodonta africana), but causes fatal haemorrhagic disease in Asian elephants (Elephas maximus). This is thought to occur through transmission from African elephants in places where both species are housed, such as zoological gardens. The virus has caused considerable losses in North A...

BACKGROUND A severe adverse reaction to sulfasalazine therapy has been associated with hypersensitivity syndrome, the clinical features of which are similar to infectious mononucleosis. No serologic evidence of viral infections has been reported with this syndrome; however, human herpesvirus 6 infection has not been specifically investigated, which could cause an infectious mononucleosislike sy...

The herpesvirus simian agent 8 (SA8) gene which corresponds to the herpes simplex virus (HSV) gene encoding glycoprotein B (gB) was localized, cloned and sequenced. Comparison of its deduced amino acid sequence with those of its counterparts in 12 other distinct herpesvirus was used to evaluate their homology and phylogenetic relationship. The results emphasized that SA8 gB is more closely rela...
