Amplification of Ovis aries papillomavirus type 2 DNA from an ovine cutaneous fibropapilloma

Vet Dermatol. 2023 Sep 13. doi: 10.1111/vde.13207. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTSeven of 60 Perendale sheep within a flock developed single or multiple exophytic masses on their distal hind limbs. A mass was excised from one sheep and histological evaluation revealed epidermal and mesenchymal proliferation, papillomavirus-induced keratinocyte changes and marked keratohyalin clumping. Ovis aries papillomavirus type 2 DNA sequences were amplified using PCR.PMID:37704588 | DOI:10.1111/vde.13207
