Experimental study of the susceptibility of a European Aedes albopictus strain to dengue virus under a simulated Mediterranean temperature regime
(Wiley, 2018-07-27)
Dengue virus (DENV) has re‐emerged in Europe driven by the geographic expansion of the mosquito species Aedes albopictus and Aedes aegypti (Diptera: Culicidae) and the introduction of the virus by ...
Swine Dendritic Cell Response to Porcine Reproductive and Respiratory Syndrome Virus: An Update
(Frontiers Media, 2021-07-28)
Dendritic cells (DCs) are the most potent antigen-presenting cells, unique to initiate and coordinate the adaptive immune response. In pigs, conventional DCs (cDCs), plasmacytoid DCs (pDCs), and ...
Antimicrobial removal on piglets promotes health and higher bacterial diversity in the nasal microbiota
(Nature Research, 2019-04-25)
The view on antimicrobials has dramatically changed due to the increased knowledge on the importance of microbiota composition in different body parts. Antimicrobials can no longer be considered only ...
Molecular detection of Treponema species organisms in foremilk and udder cleft skin of dairy cows with digital dermatitis
(Springer, 2019-09-13)
Identification of reservoirs and transmission routes of digital dermatitis (DD)-associated Treponema spp. is considered an effective means for controlling DD infection in dairy cows. The objective of ...
Ceftiofur treatment of sows results in long‑term alterations in the nasal microbiota of the ofspring that can be ameliorated by inoculation of nasal colonizers
(BMC, 2023-10-20)
Background The nasal microbiota of the piglet is a reservoir for opportunistic pathogens that can cause polyse‑
rositis, such as Glaesserella parasuis, Mycoplasma hyorhinis or Streptococcus suis. ...
Eurasian griffon vultures carry widespread antimicrobial resistant Salmonella and Campylobacter of public health concern
(Elsevier, 2022-07-06)
The global emergence of antimicrobial-resistant (AMR) strains of Salmonella and Campylobacter is a serious public health concern. Both bacteria are leading causes of human gastrointestinal foodborne ...
DNA vaccine based on conserved HA-peptides induces strong immune response and rapidly clears influenza virus infection from vaccinated pigs
(Public Library of Science, 2019-09-25)
Swine influenza virus (SIVs) infections cause a significant economic impact to the pork industry.
Moreover, pigs may act as mixing vessel favoring genome reassortment of diverse influenza
viruses. ...
Understanding the legal trade of cattle and camels and the derived risk of Rift Valley Fever introduction into and transmission within Egypt
(Public Library of Science, 2018-01-19)
Rift Valley Fever (RVF) is a mosquito-borne zoonosis, which may cause significant losses for the livestock sector and have serious public health implications. Egypt has been repeatedly affected by RVF ...
Retrospective study on transmissible viral proventriculitis and chicken proventricular necrosis virus (CPNV) in the UK
(Taylor & Francis, 2019-10-21)
Chicken proventricular necrosis virus (CPNV) is a recently described birnavirus, which has been proposed to be the cause of transmissible viral proventriculitis (TVP). The understanding of the epidemiology ...
Comparison of cytokine profiles in peripheral blood mononuclear cells between piglets born from Porcine circovirus 2 vaccinated and non-vaccinated sows
(Elsevier, 2017-12-19)
This study was aimed to evaluate the effect of Porcine circovirus 2 (PCV2) sow vaccination on cell-mediated immune responses in sows and their progeny. At 7 weeks before farrowing, fifteen PCV2 PCR ...
