Screening for porcine endogenous retrovirus - C (PERV-C) in pigs

2024-08-22

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p>Porcine endogenous retrovirus C (PERV-C) is a gammaretrovirus present in the genome of many, but not all pigs. PERV-C is an ecotropic virus, able to infect only pig cells. In contrast, PERV-A and PERV-B are present in all pigs, they can infect cells of numerous host species including humans, and therefore pose a risk for xenotransplantation using pigs as donor animals. Intriguingly, PER...
