Journal ArticleDOI
An orthopoxvirus-based vaccine reduces virus excretion after MERS-CoV infection in dromedary camels
Bart L. Haagmans,Judith M. A. van den Brand,V. Stalin Raj,Asisa Volz,Peter Wohlsein,Saskia L. Smits,Debby Schipper,Theo M. Bestebroer,Nisreen M.A. Okba,Robert Fux,Albert Bensaid,David Solanes Foz,Thijs Kuiken,Wolfgang Baumgärtner,Joaquim Segalés,Gerd Sutter,Albert D. M. E. Osterhaus,Albert D. M. E. Osterhaus,Albert D. M.

TL;DR: It is shown that a modified vaccinia virus Ankara (MVA) vaccine expressing the MERS-CoV spike protein confers mucosal immunity in dromedary camels, and that induction of MVA-specific antibodies that cross-neutralize camelpox virus would also provide protection against camelpox.
Journal ArticleDOI
Identification of a bovine surface antigen uniquely expressed on CD4-CD8- T cell receptor gamma/delta+ T lymphocytes.
Hans Clevers,Niall D. MacHugh,Albert Bensaid,S. Dunlap,Cynthia L. Baldwin,A. Kaushal,K.P. Iams,Chris J. Howard,Wi Morrison +8 more
TL;DR: Results indicate that the IL‐A29 and CC15 antibodies define a unique population of CD4−CD8−, γ/δ T cells.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sequence conservation of microsatellites between Bos taurus (cattle), Capra hircus (goat) and related species. Examples of use in parentage testing and phylogeny analysis.
TL;DR: It was shown that an estimated 40 per cent of the microsatellites isolated from cattle will prove useful to study the caprine genome and to characterize economically important genetic loci in this species.
Journal Article
Characterization by a monoclonal antibody and functional analysis of a subset of bovine T lymphocytes that express BoT8, a molecule analogous to human CD8.
J.A. Ellis,Cynthia L. Baldwin,Niall D. MacHugh,Albert Bensaid,Alan J. Teale,Bruno Goddeeris,Wi Morrison +6 more
TL;DR: Fractionation of effector cells generated in an allogeneic mixed leucocyte culture (MLC) demonstrated that cytotoxic cells specific for class I major histocompatibility complex (MHC) antigens reside within the BoT8+ population.
Journal ArticleDOI
Differential expression of the Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus receptor in the upper respiratory tracts of humans and dromedary camels
W. Widagdo,V. Stalin Raj,Debby Schipper,Kimberley Kolijn,Geert J.L.H. van Leenders,Berend J. Bosch,Albert Bensaid,Joaquim Segalés,Wolfgang Baumgärtner,Albert D. M. E. Osterhaus,Albert D. M. E. Osterhaus,Albert D. M. E. Osterhaus,Marion Koopmans,Judith M. A. van den Brand,Bart L. Haagmans +14 more
TL;DR: It is reported that the MERS-CoV receptor—dipeptidyl peptidase 4 (DPP4)—is expressed in the upper respiratory tract epithelium of camels but not in that of humans.
