EFFECTIVE INHIBITION OF FOOT-AND-MOUTH DISEASE VIRUS (FMDV) REPLICATION IN VITRO BY VECTOR-DELIVERED MICRORNAS TARGETING THE 3D GENE

Effective inhibition of foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV) replication in vitro by vector-delivered microRNAs targeting the 3D gene

Abstract Background Foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV) causes an economically important and highly contagious disease of cloven-hoofed animals.RNAi triggered by small RNA molecules, including siRNAs and miRNAs, offers a new approach for controlling viral infections.There is no report available for FMDV inhibition by vector-delivered miRNA, althoug
