Interleukins (ILs) regulate cell surface antigens known as activation markers, which have distinct functional roles. However, the regulation of major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I, MHC class II, and related genes by cytokines in chickens is not well understood. In the present study, we evaluated the influence of certain recently discovered chicken interleukins-i.

However, the efficacy of these vaccines to protect the pig against field CSF strains needs to be considered, based on circulating strains of classical swine fever virus (CSFV).
Materials And Methods: Recombinant E2-CSFV protein produced by baculovirus/insect cell system was analyzed by western blots and immunoperoxidase monolayer assay.
Article Synopsis
- The detection of the African swine fever virus (ASFV) is crucial for managing outbreaks, and modifications in probe sequences can help reduce false negatives in real-time PCR testing.
- Seven samples were tested, revealing that while the original OIE probe worked well for some, it failed for those with mutations; the modified probe detected ASFV in these cases.
- This study underscores the need for slight modifications to testing methods to improve accuracy in detecting ASFV in clinical samples, particularly in Vietnam.
