Variability-specific differential gene expression across reproductive stages in sows
(Elsevier, 2013-10-11)
Differential gene expression analyses typically focus on departures across mathematical expectations (i.e. mean) from two or more groups of microarrays, without considering alternative patterns of ...
Clearance and persistence of Escherichia coli in the freshwater mussel Unio mancus
(Nature Research, 2022-07-20)
The excessive use of antibiotics has led to the emergence of resistant bacteria, mainly from the Enterobacterales group, with high pathogenic/zoonotic potentials that can lead to problems in public ...
Repurposing bioenergetic modulators against protozoan parasites responsible for tropical diseases
(Elsevier, 2020-07-22)
Malaria, leishmaniasis and trypanosomiasis are arthropod-borne, parasitic diseases that constitute a major global health problem. They are generally found in developing countries, where lack of access ...
Comparison of Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae and porcine circovirus 2 commercial vaccines efficacy when applied separate or combined under experimental conditions
(BMC, 2020-05-04)
Background
Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae (Mhyo) and Porcine circovirus 2 (PCV-2) are two of the most significant infectious agents causing economic losses in the weaning to slaughter period. Due to their ...

(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 ...
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
pandemic. Most vaccines are based on a mutated version ...
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 ...
Infectious diseases of interest for the conservation of peccaries in the Amazon: A systematic quantitative review
(Elsevier, 2022-12-23)
Infectious diseases are increasingly emerging and spreading globally, ending up being considered a threat to biodiversity. In the Amazon region, repeated disappearance episodes of local populations of ...
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, ...
