Virus particles morphologically similar to caliciviruses and rotaviruses were detected by electron microscopy (EM) in the intestinal contents of a 27-day-old diarrheic nursing pig. A third small spherical 23-nm virus-like particle was also observed. Calicivirus-like particles averaged 33 nm in
Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is the leading cause of central vision loss in the over 50s worldwide. Activation of the immune system has been implicated in disease progression, but while polymorphisms in genes associated with the immune system have been identified as risk factors for
