  1. 1. Interferon expression in feline Borna disease

    Kandidat-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Biomedical Sciences and Veterinary Public Health

    Författare :Carolina Ilbäck; [2010]
    Nyckelord :Borna disease;

    Sammanfattning : Borna disease is caused by Borna disease virus (BDV). This disease is characterised as a neurogical illness of the central nervous system (CNS), known to occur in several vertebrates like horses, cats and sheep. Cats mainly at the age of 1 to 4 years, living outdoors, have also been shown to subtract the BDV infection. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Staggering disease in cats in Sweden : development of molecular methods for detection and genetic characterization of Borna disease virus strains

    L3-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Biomedical Sciences and Veterinary Public Health

    Författare :Jessica Schenck; [2008]
    Nyckelord :BDV; borna disease virus; SD; staggering disease; RNA virus; virus; neurological disorder;

    Sammanfattning : The aim of this project was to get clearer knowledge about the spread of Borna disease virus (BDV) by comparing sequences from BDV infected cats from different regions in Sweden. BDV is associated with staggering disease (SD), a feline neurological disorder that causes non-suppurative meningoencephalomyelitis. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Characterization of feline Borna disease virus

    L3-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Biomedical Sciences and Veterinary Public Health

    Nyckelord :Borna disease virus; rRT-PCR; feline Borna disease; Molecular epidemiology;

    Sammanfattning : Feline Borna disease, a neurological disease of cats is an infection caused byBorna disease virus (BDV). The infection, first reported in Sweden in 1974,affects other species of animals such as horses in which the disease was firstreported. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Development of a real-time PCR for in vivo diagnosis of feline Borna disease

    L3-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Molecular Biosciences

    Författare :Jonas Johansson; [2004]
    Nyckelord :Borna disease virus; BDV; Borna disease; staggering disease; real-time PCR; feline neurological disorder;

    Sammanfattning : Borna disease virus (BDV) is the causative agent of a neurological disorder in mammals and ostriches called Borna disease. BDV is also of interest as infective agent in humans with psychiatric diseases, such as mood disorders and schizophrenia, as well as in experimental models of these diseases. LÄS MER
