Subviral Agents01:29

Subviral Agents

Subviral agents are infectious entities that resemble viruses but lack one or more viral components, such as a capsid or essential replication machinery. These agents include viroids, prions, and satellites, each possessing distinct structural and functional characteristics that influence their mode of infection and replication.Viroids are the simplest subviral agents, consisting of circular, single-stranded RNA molecules without a protein coat. They exclusively infect plants, relying entirely...
Rabies01:28

Rabies

Rabies is a lethal zoonotic disease caused by a single-stranded, negative-sense RNA virus of the Lyssavirus genus, within the family Rhabdoviridae. Its primary mode of transmission to humans is through bites or saliva-contaminated scratches from infected mammals such as dogs, bats, raccoons, or foxes. Transmission can also occur if infectious saliva contacts abraded skin or intact mucous membranes, including the conjunctiva.Viral Entry and Early ReplicationOnce introduced at the bite or scratch...
Poliomyelitis01:17

Poliomyelitis

Poliomyelitis is caused by poliovirus, a small, non-enveloped, positive-sense RNA virus of the Picornaviridae family and Enterovirus genus. Transmission occurs primarily via the fecal-oral route, often through ingestion of contaminated water or food. The virus initially replicates in the oropharynx and intestinal mucosa, particularly in lymphoid tissues such as the tonsils, Peyer’s patches, and regional lymph nodes. Primary viremia follows, allowing dissemination throughout the body.In most...
Encephalitis ll: Pathophysiology01:26

Encephalitis ll: Pathophysiology

Encephalitis is inflammation of the brain parenchyma caused by direct viral invasion or immune-mediated mechanisms triggered by infections or tumors. Both processes lead to neuronal injury, disrupted neurotransmission, and diverse neurological symptoms, often with overlapping clinical and pathological features.Autoimmune EncephalitisIn autoimmune encephalitis, antibodies target neuronal antigens on cell surfaces, synapses, or within neurons. A key example is anti-NMDAR encephalitis, which can...
Viruses with RNA Genomes01:29

Viruses with RNA Genomes

RNA viruses are categorized into positive-strand, negative-strand, or double-stranded groups based on their genomic structure and replication mechanisms. This classification dictates how they exploit host cellular machinery for protein synthesis and replication. Some RNA viruses also utilize reverse transcription as part of their life cycle, further diversifying their replication strategies.Positive-Strand RNA VirusesPositive-strand RNA viruses have genomes that function directly as messenger...
Arboviral Encephalitis01:25

Arboviral Encephalitis

Arboviral encephalitis refers to brain inflammation caused by arthropod-borne viruses, particularly those transmitted through mosquito vectors. Among these, West Nile virus (WNV), a member of the Flaviviridae family, is a significant public health concern. WNV is an enveloped, positive-sense, single-stranded RNA virus. Human infection typically begins when an infected mosquito introduces the virus into the dermis during feeding. The primary transmission cycle involves birds as amplifying hosts...

Area of Science:

  • Veterinary Virology
  • Avian Pathology
  • Disease Epidemiology

Background:

  • Newcastle disease virus (NDV) poses a significant threat to poultry globally.
  • Understanding strain variations is crucial for effective disease control and vaccine development.
  • Previous studies have characterized NDV strains, but further investigation into pathotype-specific clinical manifestations is warranted.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate and compare the clinical signs, mortality, and postmortem findings of different Newcastle disease virus strains in young chicks.
  • To explore the potential for classifying NDV strains into distinct pathotypes based on observed disease characteristics.
  • To identify specific lesions associated with particular NDV isolates.

Main Methods:

  • Infection of six-week-old chicks with nine distinct strains of Newcastle disease virus.
  • Clinical observation for signs of disease, including mortality assessment.
  • Postmortem examination to identify characteristic pathological lesions.

Main Results:

  • NDV strains exhibited varied pathogenicity, with some causing severe clinical signs and mortality.
  • Haemorrhagic gut lesions were a prominent feature in chicks infected with specific isolates, including post-1970 USA and UK epidemic strains.
  • The Lamb-Essex '70 isolate, from the post-1970 UK epidemic, rarely induced gut lesions but consistently caused eye edema.

Conclusions:

  • Newcastle disease virus strains display diverse clinical and pathological profiles.
  • While pathotype divisions are suggested, they are not clearly defined by the observed lesions.
  • Specific viral isolates can be associated with distinct pathological outcomes, such as haemorrhagic enteritis or ocular edema.
