Journal ArticleDOI
Marek's disease virus-encoded Meq gene is involved in transformation of lymphocytes but is dispensable for replication
Blanca Lupiani,Lucy F. Lee,Xiaoping Cui,Isabel M. Gimeno,Amy S. Anderson,Robin W. Morgan,Robert F. Silva,Richard L. Witter,Hsing Jien Kung,Sanjay M. Reddy +9 more
TL;DR: In this paper, an rMd5DeltaMeq virus was generated by deleting both copies of the meq gene from the genome of a very virulent strain of MDV.
Journal ArticleDOI
Rescue of a pathogenic Marek's disease virus with overlapping cosmid DNAs: Use of a pp38 mutant to validate the technology for the study of gene function
Sanjay M. Reddy,Blanca Lupiani,Isabel M. Gimeno,Robert F. Silva,Lucy F. Lee,Richard L. Witter +5 more
TL;DR: Development of overlapping cosmid DNA clones from a very virulent oncogenic strain of Marek's disease virus resulted in the generation of a recombinant MDV (rMd5) with biological properties similar to the parental strain, to demonstrate the applicability of this technology for elucidation of gene function of MDV.
Journal ArticleDOI
The history of avian influenza.
Blanca Lupiani,Sanjay M. Reddy +1 more
TL;DR: The term fowl plague was substituted by the more appropriate term highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) at the First International Symposium on Avian Influenza in 1981 and will be used throughout this review when referring to any previously described fowl Plague virus.
Journal ArticleDOI
Identification of differentially expressed miRNAs in chicken lung and trachea with avian influenza virus infection by a deep sequencing approach
Ying Wang,Vinayak Brahmakshatriya,Huifeng Zhu,Blanca Lupiani,Sanjay M. Reddy,Byung-Jun Yoon,Preethi H. Gunaratne,Jong Kim,Rui Chen,Junjun Wang,Huaijun Zhou +10 more
TL;DR: This is the first study on miRNA gene expression in AIV infected chickens using a deep sequencing approach, supporting the hypothesis that certain miRNAs might be essential in the host-pathogen interactions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Integrated analysis of microRNA expression and mRNA transcriptome in lungs of avian influenza virus infected broilers
Ying Wang,Vinayak Brahmakshatriya,Blanca Lupiani,Sanjay M. Reddy,Benjamin Soibam,Ashley Benham,Preethi H. Gunaratne,Hsiao-Ching Liu,Nares Trakooljul,Nancy H. Ing,Ronald Okimoto,Huaijun Zhou +11 more
TL;DR: A comprehensive analysis combining both miRNA and targeted mRNA gene expression suggests that gga-miR-34a, 122–1, 122-2, 146a, 155, 206, 1719, 1594, 1599 and 451, and MX1, IL-8, IRF-7, TNFRS19 are strong candidate miRNAs or genes involved in regulating the host response to AIV infection in the lungs of broiler chickens.
