 CAV produces '''three types of proteins''': '''VP1''' (52kDA), '''VP2''' (24 kDA) and '''VP3''' (14 kDA). '''Structural protein VP1''' is the intracellular form of the capsid protein and '''VP2''' is found in small amounts in the '''purified virus'''. Vaccines need to contain both of these to be antigenic. '''VP3''' is involved in '''apoptosis''' which involves the '''programmed and controlled death of a cell'''.  This process does not involve the lysis of the cell and therefore limits damage to surrounding cells and tissues. It also initiates pathogenicity and '''apoptosis of infected stem cells in the bone marrow (BM)''', resulting in damage to the BM.  As a result, the virus '''inhibits the production of red blood cells (RBC), white blood cells (WBC) and platelets.  Lymphoid tissues are also affected'''. Due to its apoptotic properties VP3 has the potential to be an anti-cancer agent. It is '''not considered a zoonosis'''.

 Post mortem finding include severe atrophy of the lymphoid organs. The thymus, bursa of Fabricius, and to a lesser extent the spleen are all affected by a depletion of lymphocytes and sequential hyperplasia of reticular cells. Common finding include haemorrhages throughout the skeletal muscle and subcutaneous tissue and pale watery bone marrow. Severe aplasia of the bone marrow occurs and haematopoietic cells are replaced with adipose tissue, giving the bone marrow its watery texture and characteristic change in colour from red to yellow.

 Chicken anaemia virus disease is commonly referred to as chicken anaemia, chicken infectious anaemia and blue wing disease.  It is caused by the '''''chicken anaemia virus''''' (CAV), which is a non-enveloped icosahedral '''single stranded DNA (ssDNA) virus'''.  CAV  is 23-25 nm diameter and is part of the [[:Category:Circoviridae|Circoviridae]], composing of a small circular genome of negative sense. The virus is '''difficult to eradicate''' as it is '''very hardy and resistant to high temperatures, acidic pH (pH3), chloroform''' and '''commercial disinfectants'''.  CAV can be '''destroyed with hypochlorite and iodophor''' and '''formalin can reduce its infectivity'''.  It  is also morphologically and antigenically different to other circoviruses such as [[Porcine Circoviruses|''Porcine circovirus'' (PCV)]] and [[Psittacine Beak and Feather Disease| ''Psittacine beak and feather disease virus'' (PBFDV)]].
-CAV produces '''three types of proteins''' of '''VP1''' (52kDA), '''VP2''' (24 kDA) and '''VP3''' (14 kDA) kDa. '''Structural protein VP1''' is the intracellular form of the capsid protein and '''VP2''' is found in small amounts in the '''purified virus'''. Vaccines need to contain both of these to be antigenic. '''VP3''' is involved in '''apoptosis''' which involves the '''programmed and controlled death of a cell'''.  This process does not involve the lysis of the cell and therefore limits damage to surrounding cells and tissues. It also initiates pathogenicity and '''apoptosis of infected stem cells in the bone marrow (BM)''', resulting in damage to the BM.  As a result, the virus '''inhibits the production of red blood cells (RBC), white blood cells (WBC) and platelets.  Lymphoid tissues are also affected'''. Due to its apoptotic properties VP3 has the potential to be an anti-cancer agent. It is '''not considered a zoonosis'''.
