Mad Itch
Psuedorabies, Aujeszkys's disease
Psuedorabies (main info)
Porcine herpesvirus 1. it may survive in the environment for up to 2-3 days.The rabbit is the most suseptible to infection. Secondary hosts aer ruminants, dogs, cats, horses etc. Transmission of virus from swine to other species and swine to swine is paramount. it is shed from the pigs nasal secretion, saliva, and milk. Recovered swine will shed virus continuously in their nasal secretions. all animals must come in contact with the pig or its carcasses.
Psuedorabies in swine
Virus replicates in the nasopharynx and tonsils. A brief viremia is associated with virulent strains, however replication is primarily in URT. Virus spread continues in the CNs with a ganglioneuritis, nonsuppurative meningioencephalitis, and perivascular cuffing.
Clinical features of psuedorabies in swine
In weaned, growing, and adult pigs - sneezing coughing, fever, salivation, constipation, and vomiting. Pigs are listless, depressed and cns signs. low mortality. No pruritus in swine! Piglets born to nonimmune sows - sneezing coughing, encephalitis, prostration and death. mortality approached 100% nonimmune pregnant sows - SMEDI - 50% abort.
Psuedorabies in secondary hosts besides swine
Cattle (mad itch) Intense pruritus, and they can become frenzied. increased CNS signs and paralysis of the pharynx. Death from respiratory failure. Dogs - frenzy associated with pruritis. paralysis of jaws and pharynx. no agression. Cats - Disease is so rapid that no pruritis is noted.
Control of psuedorabies
Reportable. Vaccines do not prevent the establishment of a disease from the wild-type virus. There are 3 vaccines - modified live, inactivated, and gene deleted vaccine
What is known as the Equine abortion virus?
Equine Herpes Virus 1 (EHV-1)1
Basic idea of EHV - 1
it is the most virulent eqine herpesvirus, and is associated with abortion storms. it is also indicated in respiratory disease, perinatal foal disease, and encephalitis. Most important cause of viral abortion on horses.
the predilection site for EHV-1
Circulating leukocytes, and endothelial cells.
How is EHV-1 transmitted?
Via aerosols, or direct/indirect contact with contaminated nasal discharge or placental fluid/stroma.
With the eqine abortion virus, what trimester do the pregnant mares tend to abort?
it is equine herpesvirus 1, and they abort in the third trimester. Reproductive efficency is not compromised
Encephalomyelitis caused by EHV-1
The neurologic signs can be a primary issue, or can be combined with respiratory disease and/or abortion. Vasculitis of the small vessels of the CNS, followed by hypoxic degeneration (infarction) and hemorrhage through the brain and spinal cord. It is said that the vasculitis results from virus/antibody immune complexes. Severity can vary from slight incoordination to quadraplegia and recumbancy resulting in death.
Perinatal foal mortality
Caused by EHV-1 It is a fatal generalized disease and is accompanied by respiratory distress due to interstital pneumonia.
T or F rhinopnuemonitis is caused by EHV-1
True, occasionally.
Immunity in EHV-1
There is an inactivated vaccine, but immunity is short lived - 2-4 months

In older animals, infections are subclinical
Hemorrhagic disease of puppies is also known as?
Fading puppy syndrome
What age group is effected by Fading puppy syndrome?
those puppies under 4 weeks of age.
Etiologic agent of fading puppy syndrome
Canine herpes virus 1
How does transmission of hemorrhagic disease of puppies take place?
It can occur in utero, from direct contact with effected littermates, or from nasal secretions from the dam.
What is the pathogenesis of fading puppy syndrome?
Initial replication takes place in the nasal epithelium, followed by a viremia and replication in endothelial cells. Large ecchymotic hemorrhages and necrosis are observed in multiple organ systems. this occurs in puppies bc the virus needs a lower temp of 33C to replicate, and neonates do not have temperature regulatory abilities yet.
What are the clinical signs of puppies infected with hemorrhagic disease of puppies?
Painful crying, anorexia, dyspnea, and soft odorless green stool. NO FEVER. You can see meningoencephalitis in oronasally infected puppies.
