| encephalomyelitis, enzootic porcine | A picornavirus infection producing symptoms similar to poliomyelitis in pigs. (12 Dec 1998) |

| encephalomyelitis, equine | An alphavirus infection of horses and mules, communicable to humans, occurring in the united states and parts of central and south america. (12 Dec 1998) |
| encephalomyelitis, venezuelan equine | An arthropod-borne viral encephalomyelitis of equidae and humans. (12 Dec 1998) |
| encephalomyelitis virus, murine | A strain of encephalomyocarditis virus, a species of cardiovirus, usually causing an inapparent intestinal infection in mice. A small number of mice may show signs of flaccid paralysis. (12 Dec 1998) |
| enzootic encephalomyelitis | An encephalomyelitis of horses, sheep and cattle caused by an RNA virus. (12 Dec 1998) |
| enzootic encephalomyelitis virus | An unclassified, single-stranded RNA virus, possibly related to the family rhabdoviridae, causing a rare and usually fatal encephalitic disease in horses and other domestic animals and possibly deer. Its name derives from the city in saxony where the condition was first described in 1894, but the disease occurs in europe, n. Africa, and the near east. (12 Dec 1998) |
| epidemic myalgic encephalomyelitis | An epidemic disease characterised by stiffness of the neck and back, headache, diarrhoea, fever, and localised muscular weakness; restricted almost exclusively to adults, affecting women more than men; probably viral in origin. Synonym: Akureyri disease, benign myalgic encephalomyelitis, epidemic myalgic encephalomyelitis, Iceland disease. (05 Mar 2000) |
| equine encephalomyelitis | <veterinary> An acute, often fatal, virus disease of horses and mules transmitted by mosquitoes and characterised by central nervous system disturbances. It is typically caused by one of two arthropod-borne viruses, and their resulting diseases are designated western equine or eastern equine encephalomyelitis; these viruses belong to the family Togaviridae and can also cause neurologic disease in humans. Synonym: equine encephalitis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| experimental allergic encephalomyelitis | <pathology> An autoimmune disease that can be induced in various experimental animals by the injection of homogenised brain or spinal cord in Freund's adjuvant. The antigen appears to be a basic protein present in myelin and the response is characterised by focal areas of lymphocyte and macrophage infiltration into the brain, associated with demyelination and destruction of the blood-brain barrier. Sometimes used as a model for demyelinating diseases, although whether this is entirely justifiable is not clear. (18 Nov 1997) |
| zoster encephalomyelitis | Inflammation of the brain and spinal cord caused by varicella-zoster virus, a member of the family Herpesviridae. (05 Mar 2000) |
| avian | <zoology> Relating to, affecting, resembling or derived from a bird. (02 Jan 1998) |
| avian achondroplasia | <veterinary> An achondroplasia seen in several breeds of domestic chickens. Inheritance: autosomal dominant. (05 Mar 2000) |
| avian adenovirus type 1 proteinase | <enzyme> 206 aa residues of which 66% are homologous to human ad2 emzyme embl/genbank l13161 Registry number: EC 3.4.22.- Synonym: aavl proteinase, aavl endopeptidase (26 Jun 1999) |
| avian diphtheria | An infection by the fowlpox virus in which tracheal involvement is especially severe. See: fowlpox. Synonym: fowl diphtheria. (05 Mar 2000) |
| avian erythroblastosis | <veterinary> An expression of disease of the avian leukosis-sarcoma complex; characterised by severe anaemia and large numbers of erythroblasts in the blood; chickens are most susceptible but fatal natural infections have been reported in guinea fowl. Synonym: fowl erythroblastosis. (05 Mar 2000) |
