Article Abstract
Porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV), the etiology of porcine epidemic diarrhea (PED), continues to impose severe economic burdens on pig farms in China. The continuous emergence of new variant strains makes it difficult for vaccinated sows to provide protective immunity to piglets. Hence, there is an urgent need for efficacious therapeutic drugs in clinical practice. In the present study, the antiviral activity of GS-441524, a nucleoside analogue, against PEDV was evaluated. It can efficiently inhibit the proliferation of trypsin-dependent and trypsin-independent PEDVs in a dose-dependent manner, exhibiting greater efficacy against the trypsin-independent strain. GS-441524 can inhibit trypsin-independent PEDV proliferation in Vero cells with EC and CC values of 2.6 μM and 104.4 μM, respectively. As expected, GS-441524 exerts its inhibitory effect during the replication phase of the four stages of the PEDV proliferation cycle. Even at a high viral infection dose of MOI 0.5 or added 6 h post-viral infection, 20 μM GS-441524 can still effectively inhibit PEDV proliferation. These findings emphasize the potent antiviral activity of GS-441524 against PEDV, and its therapeutic efficacy on PEDV-infected piglets warrants further investigation.

African swine fever (ASF) is a devastating disease of pigs that is endemic in Nigeria. Smallholder farmers have been implicated in driving disease spread, yet little is known about their perceptions about the disease and the role they play in the local epidemiology. Additionally, it remains inadequately documented how other smallholder pig value chain actors perceive and influence ASF spread.

This study aims to identify the role of various natural, socioeconomic, and demographic factors in the development of the African swine fever (ASF) epizootic among wild boar in the Russian Federation (RF) from 2007 to 2023. In this study, particular emphasis was placed on testing the significance of wild boar population density as a key factor contributing to the spread of ASF within this population. During the study period, 1711 outbreaks in wild boars were reported in the RF, accounting for 41.

Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) has caused tremendous economic losses in the swine industry since emerging in the late 1980s. Although vaccination has been widely used to control PRRS epidemics in Chinese pig farms, they provided limited protection against PRRSV transmission; moreover, no effective therapeutic drugs are available. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop novel antiviral strategies to control PRRSV epidemics.

Introduction: are commonly found in intramammary infections associated with bovine subclinical mastitis in dairy cattle, yet their genomic diversity and antimicrobial resistance dynamics remain poorly characterized, particularly in African settings.
Methods: This study presents a comparative genomic analysis of 17 isolates from South Africa, including five newly sequenced bovine mastitis strains and twelve porcine-derived genomes retrieved from GenBank. analysis using multilocus sequence typing (MLST), virulence genes, antibiotic resistance genes and plasmids replicon types were used to characterise these isolates.
