Distribution of aminopeptidase N coronavirus receptors in the respiratory and digestive tracts of domestic and wild artiodactyls and carnivores

Aminopeptidase N (APN) is a transmembrane protein that mediates the attachment of the spike protein of several clinically important coronaviruses (CoVs) responsible for respiratory and intestinal diseases in animals and humans. To assess the potential for APN-mediated viral…

Longitudinal study of foot-and-mouth disease virus in Northern Nigeria: implications for the roles of small ruminants and environmental contamination in endemic settings

Foot-and-mouth disease (FMD) is a highly contagious disease affecting cloven-hoofed ungulates. This study aimed to enhance our understanding of the role of small ruminants and environmental contamination in the epidemiology and endemicity of FMD. A longitudinal study was…
