STRUCTURAL-FUNCTIONAL CHARACTERISTICS OF SPLEEN IN PIGLETS WITH SIGNS OF LATENT AND SUBCLINIC PCV2-INFECTION
Abstract
The author, on the basis of pathohistological and
immunohistochemical studies, determined the structural and functional
characteristics of the spleen of piglets with signs of latent and subclinical
PCV2-infection. It has been established that in piglets with signs of subclinical
PCV2-infection, pathogistological changes of the spleen are specific for
different stages of the development of the infectious process and manifests
itself both at the tissue and cellular level of the organization, while in piglets
with signs of latent PCV2-infection, there are no significant differences in
comparison with clinically healthy, free of PCV-2.
Keywords: PCV2-infection, subclinical and latent forms, viral load,
