RESUMEN
El herpesvirus bovino 4 [Bovine herpesvirus 4 (BoHV-4)] ha sido aislado de bovinos con infecciones respiratorias, vulvovaginitis, mastitis, abortos, endometritis y de animales aparentemente sanos en diferentes partes del mundo. Si bien no se ha reconocido como agente causal de una entidad patológica en particular, se asocia principalmente con infecciones del tracto reproductivo de los bovinos. Este virus puede infectar un amplio rango de especies tanto in vivo como in vitro. Los primeros aislamientos dieron origen a dos grupos de cepas prototipo el grupo americano tipo DN599 y el grupo europeo tipo Movar. En Argentina, el BoHV-4 fue aislado y caracterizado en el año 2007; este aislamiento se obtuvo de muestras de mucus cérvico-vaginal de vacas que abortaron. Hasta el momento se han registrado más de 40 aislamientos, provenientes principalmente de hembras bovinas que han abortado
ABSTRACT
Bovine herpesvirus 4 (BoHV-4) has been isolated from cattle with respiratory infections, vulvovaginitis, mastitis, abortions, endometritis and from apparently healthy animals throughout the world. Although it has not yet been established as causal agent of a specific disease entity, it is primarily associated with reproductive disorders of cattle. This virus can infect a wide range of species, either in vivo or in vitro. Two groups of prototype strains were originated from the first isolates the DN599-type strains (American group) and the Movar-type strains (European group). In Argentina, BoHV-4 was isolated and characterized in 2007 from vaginal discharge samples taken from cows that had aborted. So far, more than 40 isolates, mainly associated with aborting bovine females have been registered in our country
