Disease relevance of Border Disease

The two specific positions of uracil and cytosine nucleotides related to low or high virulence where indifferently present in the ovine BVDV-2 strains responsible of border disease [1].
To evaluate arachidonic acid-related immunoregulatory mechanisms during long-term persistent pestivirus infection, we measured plasma contents of leukotriene C4 (LTC4), prostaglandin D2 (PGD2) and their plasma fatty acid (FA) precursor, arachidonic acid (AA), in six lambs with congenital border disease (BD) [2].

High impact information on Border Disease

Immunodominant E2 (gp53) sequences of highly virulent bovine viral diarrhea group II viruses indicate a close resemblance to a subgroup of border disease viruses [3].
Border disease. Virus-induced decrease in thyroid hormone levels with associated hypomyelination [4].
A panel of monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) has been produced to the p125/p80 non-structural polypeptide of border disease virus (BDV) and bovine virus diarrhoea virus (BVDV) [5].
Cell line Ch1Es of caprine origin was contaminated with border disease virus (BDV) [6].
Arachidonic acid immunoregulation in lambs persistently infected with border disease virus [2].
