Review: Lumpy Skin Disease: An Emerging Threat to Europe, the Middle East and Asia

Abstract: Lumpy skin disease (LSD) is an economically devastating emerging viral disease of cattle. Lumpy skin disease is currently endemic in most African countries and has recently spread out of Africa into the Middle East region. In this article, we review the putative mechanisms of spread of LSD into the Middle East and the risks of further spread into Turkey, Europe and Asia. We also review the latest findings on the epidemiology of LSD, its mechanisms of transmission, the potential role of wildlife in its maintena… Show more

“…According to many studies, it has been proven that CaPV strains L share a major neutralizing site, So that animals are infected with one strain of CaPV family and survived from it, will be resistant to infection with any other strain. Therefore, the use of vaccine strains of CaPV derived from sheep and goat would be useful to protect cattle against LSD (8,11,12). Recently, live attenuated goat pox virus and sheep pox virus strains are used as vaccines for the control of LSD (13).…”

“…Experimentally infected Aedes aegypti were infectious for 6 days, and transovarial and transstadial transmission were demonstrated in some species of ticks. Some lying arthropods, such as Culicoides , might introduce LSDV to new areas when they are carried by the wind [4,5].…”

“…All cattle breeds and age groups are susceptible; however, the disease is more severe in young animals and cows in the peak of lactation (12). The incubation period under field conditions is unknown, but varies from 1 to 4 weeks under experimental conditions (7,19,20). The World Organization for Animal Health (OIE) categorizes LSD as a notifiable disease because of the substantial economic impact of an outbreak.…”

“…Haematophagous insects have been primarily associated with the transmission of LSDV (6). Ticks have recently been implicated in the transmission of LSDV like other arboviral diseases (1,10,20,21). The disease is of economic importance due to the severe damage to hides, reduced milk and meat production, temporary infertility and trade losses due to movement restrictions placed on cattle from affected areas (8,14).…”
