Erysipelas with preferential brain and skin involvement in a Mediterranean bottlenose dolphin Tursiops truncatus
(Inter-Research Science, 2024-02-01)
Infections by Erysipelothrix rhusiopathiae occur in domestic animals and cause the
disease known as ‘erysipelas’. The ubiquity of Erysipelothrix spp. makes infection possible in a
wide range of ...
Impacts of diffuse urban stressors on stream benthic communities and ecosystem functioning: A review
(Asociación Ibérica de Limnología, 2024)
Catchment urbanisation results in urban streams being exposed to a multitude of stressors. Notably, stressors originating from diffuse sources have received less attention than stressors originating ...
Trophic diversification and parasitic invasion as ecological niche modulators for gut microbiota of whitefish
(Frontiers, 2023-03-14)
Introduction: The impact of parasites on gut microbiota of the host is well documented, but the role of the relationship between the parasite and the host in the formation of the microbiota is poorly ...
Immunomodulation Evidence of Nanostructured Recombinant Proteins in Salmonid Cells
(MDPI, 2024-03-09)
Recent studies have demonstrated that immune-related recombinant proteins can enhance immune function, increasing host survival against infectious diseases in salmonids. This research evaluated inclusion ...
Middle East respiratory coronavirus (MERS-CoV) internalized by llama alveolar macrophages does not result in virus replication or induction of pro-inflammatory cytokines
(Elsevier, 2024-03)
Severe Middle East respiratory syndrome (MERS) is characterized by massive infiltration of immune cells
in lungs. MERS-coronavirus (MERS-CoV) replicates in vitro in human macrophages, inducing high ...
Habitat and Scale Shape the Demographic Fate of the Keystone Sea Urchin Paracentrotus lividus in Mediterranean Macrophyte Communities
(Public Library of Science, 2012-04-20)
Demographic processes exert different degrees of control as individuals grow, and in species that span several habitats and
spatial scales, this can influence our ability to predict their population ...
Distribution patterns of influenza virus receptors and viral attachment patterns in the respiratory and intestinal tracts of seven avian species
(BMC, 2012-04-10)
This study assessed the presence of sialic acid α-2,3 and α-2,6 linked glycan receptors in seven avian species. The
respiratory and intestinal tracts of the chicken, common quail, red-legged partridge, ...
Protective Immunity to Listeria Monocytogenes Infection Mediated by Recombinant Listeria innocua Harboring the VGC Locus
(Public Library of Science, 2012-04-19)
In this study we propose a novel bacterial vaccine strategy where non-pathogenic bacteria are complemented with traits
desirable for the induction of protective immunity. To illustrate the proof of ...
A Protein Misfolding Shaking Amplificationbased method for the spontaneous generation of hundreds of bona fide prions
(Nature Research, 2024-03-08)
Prion diseases are a group of rapidly progressing neurodegenerative disorders
caused by the misfolding of the endogenous prion protein (PrPC) into a
pathogenic form (PrPSc). This process, despite being ...
