High-Resolution Profiling of Innate Immune Responses by Porcine Dendritic Cell Subsets in vitro and in vivo
(Frontiers Media, 2020-07-07)
The present study investigated the transcriptomic response of porcine dendritic cells (DC) to innate stimulation in vitro and in vivo. The aim was to identify DC subset-specialization, suitable Toll-like ...
African swine fever vaccines: a promising work still in progress
(BMC, 2020-07-02)
African swine fever (ASF), a disease of obligatory declaration to the World Organization for Animal Health (OIE), has contributed to poverty and underdevelopment of affected areas. The presence of ASF ...
High sensitivity of one-step real-time reverse transcription quantitative PCR to detect low virus titers in large mosquito pools
(BMC, 2020-09-09)
Background: Mosquitoes are the deadliest animals in the world. Their ability to carry and spread diseases to humans causes millions of deaths every year. Due to the lack of efficient vaccines, the control ...
Ingestion of foreign materials by odontocetes along the Catalan coast: causes and consequences
(Inter Research, 2020-11-05)
Ingestion of abnormal materials by cetaceans has been reported worldwide, but few studies have investigated the causes of foreign material ingestion. We retrospectively analysed necropsies performed ...
Serpentoviruses: More than Respiratory Pathogens
(American Society for Microbiology, 2020-08-31)
In recent years, nidoviruses have emerged as important respiratory pathogens of reptiles, affecting captive python populations. In pythons, nidovirus (recently reclassified as serpentovirus) infection ...
Comparison of phenotypic and genotypic antimicrobial resistance patterns associated with Staphylococcus aureus mastitis in German and Danish dairy cows
(American Dairy Science Association, 2020-02-20)
Staphylococcus aureus is one of the most common pathogens associated with bovine mastitis in Germany and Denmark. Successful therapy is strongly linked to the susceptibility of the pathogen to the ...
Computational Analysis of African Swine Fever Virus Protein Space for the Design of an Epitope-Based Vaccine Ensemble
(MDPI, 2020-12-21)
African swine fever virus is the etiological agent of African swine fever, a transmissible severe hemorrhagic disease that affects pigs, causing massive economic losses. There is neither a treatment nor ...
Lack of Porcine circovirus 4 Genome Detection in Pig Samples from Italy and Spain
(MDPI, 2020-05-31)
The genus Circovirus includes several species and mostly causes asymptomatic infections. Porcine circovirus 2 (PCV-2) and, with increasing evidence, Porcine circovirus 3 (PCV-3), have been associated ...
Enhancing the monitoring of fallen stock at different hierarchical administrative levels: an illustration on dairy cattle from regions with distinct husbandry, demographical and climate traits
(BMC, 2020-04-14)
Background: The automated collection of non-specific data from livestock, combined with techniques for data mining and time series analyses, facilitates the development of animal health syndromic ...
Peste des petits ruminants at the wildlife-livestock interface in the Northern Albertine Rift and Nile Basin, East Africa
(MDPI, 2020-03-07)
In the recent past, peste des petits ruminants (PPR) emerged in East Africa causing outbreaks in small livestock across different countries, with evidences of spillover to wildlife. In order to understand ...
