Disease relevance of Herpesvirus 1, Meleagrid

• Nucleotide and predicted amino acid sequences of the Marek's disease virus and turkey herpesvirus thymidine kinase genes; comparison with thymidine kinase genes of other herpesviruses [1].

High impact information on Herpesvirus 1, Meleagrid

• In a second demonstration of the usefulness of the positive selection system, the gpt gene was inserted into the inverted repeats flanking the unique short (US) region of the turkey herpesvirus (HVT) strain FC126 [2].
• Various fixatives were evaluated for use with IFA to detect turkey Herpesvirus (HVT) glycoprotein B (gB) and ISH to identify HVT mRNA in chicken tissues [3].
• Abundance of IFN-alpha and IFN-gamma mRNA in blood of resistant and susceptible chickens infected with Marek's disease virus (MDV) or vaccinated with turkey herpesvirus; and MDV inhibition of subsequent induction of IFN gene transcription [4].
• In contrast, the rFPV containing gE, gH, or UL32 did not induce significant protection compared with turkey herpesvirus (HVT) [5].
• In situ production of interferon in tissues of chickens exposed as embryos to turkey herpesvirus and Marek's disease virus [6].

Chemical compound and disease context of Herpesvirus 1, Meleagrid

• Marek's disease vaccination, with turkey herpesvirus, and enrofloxacin modulate the activities of hepatic microsomal enzymes in broiler chickens [7].
• The average percentage of acid alpha naphthyl acetate esterase reacting lymphocytes (APARL) was enumerated in the peripheral blood of chickens challenged with Marek's disease after vaccination with either turkey herpesvirus (HVT), inactivated Marek's disease virus (IMDV) or a mixture of the two (bivalent vaccine) [8].
