Differential kinetics of splenic CD169+ macrophage death is one underlying cause of virus infection fate regulation
(Springer Nature, 2023-12-18)
Acute infection and chronic infection are the two most common fates of pathogenic virus infections. While several factors that
contribute to these fates are described, the critical control points and ...
MicroRNA expression in specific segments of the pig periovulatory internal genital tract is differentially regulated by semen or by seminal plasma
(Elsevier, 2024-01-02)
microRNAs play pivotal roles during mammalian reproduction, including the cross-talk between gametes, embryos and the maternal genital tract. Mating induces changes in the expression of mRNA transcripts ...
Anti-PD-L1 Immunotherapy of Chronic Virus Infection Improves Virus Control without Augmenting Tissue Damage by Fibrosis
(MDPI, 2024-05-17)
Immunotherapy with checkpoint inhibitors, albeit commonly used against tumors, is
still at its infancy against chronic virus infections. It relies on the reinvigoration of exhausted T
lymphocytes to ...
Safety and Efficacy upon Infection in Sheep with Rift Valley Fever Virus ZH548-rA2, a Triple Mutant Rescued Virus
(MDPI, 2024-01-05)
The introduction of three single nucleotide mutations into the genome of the virulent RVFV
ZH548 strain allows for the rescue of a fully attenuated virus in mice (ZH548-rA2). These mutations
are located ...
Diverse Populations of Staphylococcus pseudintermedius Colonize the Skin of Healthy Dogs
(American Society for Microbiology, 2023-02-14)
Staphylococcus pseudintermedius is a commensal bacterium of the canine skin but is also a key opportunistic pathogen that is responsible for most cases of pyoderma in dogs. The current paradigm indicates ...
Swine farm environmental microbiome: exploring microbial ecology and functionality across farms with high and low sanitary status
(Frontiers Media, 2024-07-03)
Stringent regulations in pig farming, such as antibiotic control and the ban on certain additives and disinfectants, complicate disease control efforts. Despite the evolution of microbial communities ...
