antiviral activity of NanB bacterial sialidase against avian influenza H9N2 virus in MDCK cells.

The avian influenza virus is an infectious agent that may cause global health problems in poultry and is potentially zoonotic. In the recent decades, bacterial-derived sialidases have been extensively studied for their ability to inhibit avian influenza virus infections. In this study, the antiviral activity of NanB sialidase from was investigated through analysis using Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cells.

Evaluation of inhibitor activity of bacterial sialidase from against Newcastle disease virus in the cell culture model using chicken embryo fibroblast.

Objective: The Newcastle disease virus (NDV) is an infectious disease that causes very high economic losses due to decreased livestock production and poultry deaths. The vaccine's ineffectiveness due to mutation of the genetic structure of the virus impacts obstacles in controlling the disease, especially in some endemic areas. This study aimed to provide an alternative treatment for NDV infection by observing the viral replication inhibitor activity of sialidase in primary chicken embryo fibroblast (CEF) cells.
