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 ...

(Public Library of Science, 2019-02-21)
The objective of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of the SurePure Turbulator ultraviolet-C (UV-C, 254 nm wavelength) irradiation equipment on inactivation of different enveloped and non-enveloped ...
Previous SARS-CoV-2 Infection Increases B.1.1.7 Cross-Neutralization by Vaccinated Individuals
(MDPI, 2021-06-12)
With the spread of new variants of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), there is a need to assess the protection conferred by both previous infections and current vaccination. ...
Immunization with V987H-stabilized Spike glycoprotein protects K18-hACE2 mice and golden Syrian hamsters upon SARS-CoV-2 infection
(Nature Research, 2024-03-21)
Safe and effective severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARSCoV-2) vaccines are crucial to fight against the coronavirus disease 2019

Feeding Spray-Dried Porcine Plasma to Pigs Improves the Protection Afforded by the African Swine Fever Virus (ASFV) BA71∆CD2 Vaccine Prototype against Experimental Challenge with the Pandemic ASFV—Study 2
(MDPI, 2023-04-10)
This study aimed to evaluate the effects of feeding spray-dried porcine plasma (SDPP) on the protection afforded by the BA71∆CD2 African swine fever virus (ASFV) vaccine prototype. Two groups of pigs ...
Exposure to severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) in the endangered Iberian lynx (Lynx pardinus)
(Elsevier, 2024-01-17)
The severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) is an emerging zoonotic virus of public and
animal health concern, of which felids have been suggested as potential reservoirs. Although ...
Characterization of homologous and heterologous adaptive immune responses in porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus infection
(BMC, 2012-04-19)
The present study characterized the homologous and heterologous immune response in type-I porcine
reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) infection. Two experiments were conducted: in ...
Mycobacterium manresensis induces trained immunity in vitro
(Cell Press, 2023-05-13)
The COVID-19 pandemic posed a global health crisis, with new severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) variants weakening vaccine-driven protection. Trained immunity could help tackle ...
