Chicken liver is a potential reservoir of bacteriophages and phage-derived particles containing antibiotic resistance genes
(Wiley Open Access, 2022-04-29)
Poultry meat production is one of the most important agri-food industries in the world. The selective pressure exerted by widespread prophylactic or therapeutic use of antibiotics in intensive chicken ...
Numbers Game and Immune Geography as Determinants of Coronavirus Pathogenicity
(Frontiers Media, 2020-10-23)
Identification of African Swine Fever Virus Transcription within Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells of Acutely Infected Pigs
(MDPI, 2021-11-22)
African swine fever virus (ASFV) has become widespread in Europe, Asia and elsewhere, thereby causing extensive economic losses. The viral genome includes nearly 200 genes, but their expression within ...
Spatiotemporal monitoring of selected pathogens in Iberian ibex (Capra pyrenaica)
(Wiley, 2020-04-17)
An epidemiological surveillance programme was carried out to assess exposure and spatiotemporal patterns of selected pathogens (Brucella spp., Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis (MAP), Mycoplasma ...
Examining the cooperativity mode of antibody and CD8+ T cell immune responses for vaccinology
(Elsevier, 2021-09-21)
A fundamental unsolved issue in vaccine design is how neutralizing antibodies and cytotoxic CD8+ T cells cooperate numerically in controlling virus infections. We hypothesize on a viewpoint for the ...
Extended Viral Shedding of MERS-CoV Clade B Virus in Llamas Compared with African Clade C Strain
(Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 2023-02-07)
Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus (MERS-CoV) clade B viruses are found in camelids and humans in the Middle East, but clade C viruses are not. We provide experimental evidence for extended ...
Classical BSE prions emerge from asymptomatic pigs challenged with atypical/Nor98 scrapie
(Nature Research, 2021-08-31)
Pigs are susceptible to infection with the classical bovine spongiform encephalopathy (C-BSE) agent following experimental inoculation, and PrPSc accumulation was detected in porcine tissues after the ...
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 ...
Increasing breast milk betaine modulates Akkermansia abundance in mammalian neonates and improves long-term metabolic health
(American Association for the Advancement of Science, 2021-03-31)
Accelerated postnatal growth is a potentially modifiable risk factor for future obesity. To study how specific breast milk components contribute to early growth and obesity risk, we quantified one-carbon ...
Frequency of PCV-2 viremia in nursery piglets from a Spanish swine integration system in 2020 and 2022 considering PRRSV infection status
(BMC, 2024-01-16)
Background Porcine circovirus 2 (PCV‑2) poses a signifcant economic threat for the swine industry, causing a range
of diseases collectively referred to as porcine circovirus diseases (PCVDs). Despite ...
