Q

Pathogenesis of VSV

A

Infects epithelium = cytolytic effects
Spreads to draining lymph nodes
Host immunity determines if it spreads systemically

Q

Transmission of FMD

A

Strict biosecurity is necessary
In semen and milk - cattle are more likely infected
Direct or indirect contact - fomites, animal movement, contamination of animal products, feeding uncooked garbage - swill

Q

Prophylaxis and control of FMD

A

Countries w endemic disease: vaccinate/slaughter
FMD free countries: test/slaughter, vaccinate - kill: vaccinate control zone, slaughter all vaccinated after outbreak is controlled
Vaccinate - live: vaccinate control zone, slaughter sick

Q

Regain FMD free status

A

Stamping out - no vaccine is used
Vaccine to kill - 3m after slaughter of last vax animal
Vaccine to live - FMD free w vax, 12 m post vax or outbreak

17
Q

Viruses that cause epidermal proliferation

A

Canine distemper virus
Papilloma virus
Pox virus

18
Q

CDV

A

Can present w hyperkeratosis of nose/foot
Replication in lymphoid tissue, spreads via blood, CSF to brain & epi cells
- intracytoplasmic & nuclear inclusions in epi

19
Q

Papilloma virus

A

Canine, bovine, equine, ovine

20
Q

Key concepts of papilloma virus

A

Non-enveloped, DNA viruses
• Double stranded DNA
• Replicate in the nucleus of the host cells
• Resistant to lipids, acids, and low heat

21
Q

Infection/path of papilloma virus

A

Infect basal epithelial cells as a result of abrasions
• Infected cells proliferate and differentiate slowly
• Viral gene expression is limited to proliferation
• Viruses are released when infected epithelium is desquamated from the surface

22
Q

Host specific papilloma virus

A

Host specific virus causes proliferative lesions or warts which can spontaneously regress - self limit due to development of immunity
Squamous papillomas or epi tissue is most common
Fibropapillomas of fibrous tissue is also common
Infects early in life

23
Q

Bovine papillomas virus

A

Types 1 and 2 cause fibropapillomas in
young animals that spontaneously regress
• Type 3 causes fibropapillomas that persist
• Type 5 causes teat papillomas (look like grains of rice)
• Type 6 causes frond-like papillomas
• Types 7-10 cause teat papillomas

24
Q

BPV associated tumors

A

BPV 4 - bovine alimentary papilloma carcinoma in GIT, esophagus and reticulum, can occur w eating bracken fern
BPV 2 + bracken fern - carcinoma in bladder, hemorrhage

25
Q

Equine papillomas

A

1-3 yrs old
Type 1 - on muzzle and legs
Type 2 - genital tract
Regress spontaneously

26
Q

Equine sarcoid

A

Caused by BPV 1 and 2
Fibroblastic tumors /lesions on any part of the body (head, ventral abdomen, limbs)
Most common neoplasm of horses, mules, donkey
Develop is mid aged 1-6

27
Q

Canine oral papillomas

A

Type 1
Squamous papillomas lesion in the mouth
Common in young dogs, transmissible
Can regress but also can occur in conjunctiva, eyelids, muzzle - failure of regression can indicate an immune problem

28
Q

Canine cutaneous exophytic and inverted papilloma

A

Caused by type 2
Restricted to paw/footpads, chronic lesion that can progress to squamous cell carcinomas

29
Q

Canine pigmented viral plaques

A

Type 4 (3,5)
Pigmented, raise, irregular plaques
Immunosuppressed, hypothyroidism, hypoalbuminemia can predispose

30
Q

Pox viruses

A

Viruses replicate in cytoplasm - intracytoplasmic inclusions only*
Largest virus that can cause disease in domestic animals - enveloped, double stranded DNA

31
Q

Transmission of pox

A

Aerosol, direct, mechanical
Infection = raised proliferative skin lesions that progress to scabs, viral proteins release = epi growth & vasculitis
Systemic infection = life long immunity

A
36
