Dogs, distemper and Paget's disease

Abstract: The cause of Paget's disease is still unknown, despite many years of intensive study. During this time, evidence has sporadically emerged to suggest that the disease may result from a slow viral infection by one or more of the Paramyxoviruses. More recently, epidemiologic and molecular studies have suggested that the canine paramyxovirus, canine distemper virus, is the virus responsible for the disease. If true, then along with rabies, this would be a further example of a canine virus causing human disease. St… Show more

“…It has an unknown etiology, but a viral infection such as the canine distemper virus is likely. 33 Paget's disease comes in three phases, although not all phases may present in the patient. The first phase is characterized by osteoclastic resorption with osteopenia on the radiographs.…”

“…ferrets, badgers, and mink) families [ 2 4 ]. Previous studies had implicated CDV in the pathogenesis of Paget’s disease [ 5 ], and natural CDV infection of non-human primates has been reported [ 6 – 8 ]. In 2006, a CDV outbreak occurred in rhesus monkeys (Macaca mulatta) at a breeding farm in Guangxi province, China, with a morbidity rate (60 %) and a mortality rate (≈30 %), unexpectedly [ 6 ].…”

“…The virus particles resembled members of the paramyxovirus family, including respiratory syncytial, measles or canine distemper virus. Such a viral hypothesis was also in keeping with some epidemiological observations indicating an increased prevalence of PDB in rural areas and particularly in subjects reporting contacts with dogs and/or different animal species [2,30,40,41]. Following these initial reports, many attempts using different techniques have been made to detect evidence of paramyxoviruses in bone and blood samples from patients with this disease, but the results have been conflicting [42][43][44][45][46][47][48].…”
