A new study from scientists at The Pirbright Institute and collaborators at the University of Surrey provides evidence that infectious bronchitis virus (IBV) can regulate the signals involved in the stress response, which would otherwise prevent a virus from making new copies of itself.
Scientists from The Pirbright Institute are a step closer in the race to develop a vital vaccine for African swine fever (ASF). In their recent trial, published in Vaccines, 100 percent of pigs immunised with the new vaccine survived a lethal dose of ASF virus.
Differences in the host immune response may explain why cattle are less susceptible to peste des petits ruminants (PPR) than goats, according to a collaborative research effort by scientists at The Pirbright Institute and the Tamil Nadu Veterinary and Animal Sciences University (TANUVAS) in Chennai, India.
