DEVELOPMENT OF AVIAN PARAMYXOVIRUS VECTORED VACCINES
Avian Avulaviruses (formerly Avian Paramyxoviruses, APMV) are important pathogens of avian species and have been used as viral vectors for more than two decades. Among all APMVs, Newcastle disease virus (NDV or APMV-1) has been most extensively used as a vaccine vector for protection against avian …

Evaluation of the potential functions of Avian paramyxovirus Accessory proteins
Avian paramyxoviruses (APMVs) consist of twelve distinct serotypes (APMV-1 to -12) isolated from a wide variety of domestic and wild birds. APMV-1/Newcastle disease virus (NDV) is the most characterized and globally important avian pathogen, because of the huge economic loss associated with the …

Determination of the seroprevalence of Newcastle disease virus (Avian paramyxovirus type 1) in Zambian backyard chicken flocks
The specific objectives of this study were to determine the Newcastle disease virus (NDV) antibody titres from the chicken sera collected from various districts and provinces of Zambia and to determine the seroprevalence of ND in Zambian backyard chickens. Results showed that 73.9 % of the birds …

Virus-Based Nanoparticles for Tumor Selective Targeting and Oncolysis
… malignancies. Newcastle disease virus (NDV), an avian paramyxovirus, is naturally tumor-selective and inherently oncolytic. Our approach is to develop NDV-based nanoparticles (VBNP) for oncolytic virotherapy. VBNPs are non-infectious and non-replicating and are relatively safe. We obtained VBNPs …

Targeted Oncolytic Virotherapy Using Newcastle Disease Virus Against Prostate Cancer
… toxicity. Newcastle Disease Virus (NDV), an avian paramyxovirus, is a safe and promising OV successfully used in many clinical trials. NDV is inherently tumor selective and cytotoxic but replication restricted in normal cells. But, systemically delivered NDV fails to reach solid tumors in …
