Alteration in the Culex pipiens transcriptome reveals diverse mechanisms of the mosquito immune system implicated upon Rift Valley fever phlebovirus exposure
(Public Library of Science, 2020-12-10)
Rift Valley fever phlebovirus (RVFV) causes an emerging zoonotic disease and is mainly transmitted by Culex and Aedes mosquitoes. While Aedes aegypti-dengue virus (DENV) is the most studied model, less ...
Long-term efficacy of BCG vaccination in goat herds with a high prevalence of tuberculosis
(Nature Research, 2020-11-23)
Vaccination of goats against tuberculosis (TB) has been promoted as an ancillary tool for controlling the disease in infected livestock herds. A three-year trial to assess the efficacy of BCG vaccine ...
Potential of MMP-9 based nanoparticles at optimizing the cow dry period: pulling apart the effects of MMP-9 and nanoparticles
(Nature Research, 2020-07-09)
The cow dry period is a non-milking interval where the mammary gland involutes and regenerates
to guarantee an optimal milk production in the subsequent lactation. Important bottlenecks such
as the ...
Near real-time monitoring of clinical events detected in swine herds in Northeastern Spain
(Frontiers Media, 2020-02-18)
Novel techniques of data mining and time series analyses allow the development of new methods to analyze information relating to the health status of the swine population in near real-time. A swine ...
