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. ...
Efficient detection of African Swine Fever Virus using minimal equipment through a LAMP PCR method
(Frontiers Media, 2023-01-27)
African swine fever virus (ASFV) currently represents the biggest threat to the porcine industry worldwide, with high economic impact and severe animal health and welfare concerns. Outbreaks have occurred ...
Understanding the key features of the spontaneous formation of bona fde prions through a novel methodology that enables their swift and consistent generation
(BMC, 2023-09-07)
Among transmissible spongiform encephalopathies or prion diseases afecting humans, sporadic forms such as spo‑
radic Creutzfeldt–Jakob disease are the vast majority. Unlike genetic or acquired forms ...
Metabolic insights and background from naturally affected pigs during Streptococcus suis outbreaks
(Oxford University Press, 2023-11-06)
Streptococcus suis (S. suis) is an endemic zoonotic pathogen still lacking adequate prevention in pigs. The present case study looked back to the
occurrence and consequences of S. suis outbreaks in our ...
Efficacy of multivalent recombinant herpesvirus of turkey vaccines against high pathogenicity avian influenza, infectious bursal disease, and Newcastle disease viruses
(Elsevier, 2023-04-01)
Vaccines are an essential tool for the control of viral infections in domestic animals. We generated recombinant vector herpesvirus of turkeys (vHVT) vaccines expressing computationally optimized broadly ...
Vaccination against swine influenza in pigs causes different drift evolutionary patterns upon swine influenza virus experimental infection and reduces the likelihood of genomic reassortments
(Frontiers Media, 2023-03-13)
Influenza A viruses (IAVs) can infect a wide variety of bird and mammal species. Their genome is characterized by 8 RNA single stranded segments. The low proofreading activity of their polymerases and ...
The emergence and diversification of a zoonotic pathogen from within the microbiota of intensively farmed pigs
(National Academy of Sciences, 2023-11-14)
The expansion and intensification of livestock production is predicted to promote the
emergence of pathogens. As pathogens sometimes jump between species, this can affect
the health of humans as well ...
Detection and genetic characterization of enteric viruses in diarrhoea outbreaks from swine farms in Spain
(BioMed Central, 2023-06-22)
Background The aim of this work was to study the prevalence and distribution of Porcine astrovirus (PAstV), Porcine
kobuvirus (PKoV), Porcine torovirus (PToV), Mammalian orthoreovirus (MRV) and Porcine ...
Schlafen 12 restricts HIV-1 latency reversal by a codon-usage dependent post-transcriptional block in CD4+ T cells
(Nature Research, 2023-05-10)
Latency is a major barrier towards virus elimination in HIV-1-infected individuals. Yet, the mechanisms that contribute to the maintenance of HIV-1 latency are incompletely understood. Here we describe ...
Dynamics of Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever virus in two wild ungulate hosts during a disease-induced population collapse
(Elsevier, 2023-08-23)
Identifying the role that host species play in pathogen transmission and maintenance is crucial for disease
control, but it is a difficult task, in particular for vector-borne and multi-host pathogens, ...
