Preclinical evaluation of a COVID-19 vaccine candidate based on a recombinant RBD fusion heterodimer of SARS-CoV-2
(Cell Press, 2023-02-02)
Current COVID-19 vaccines have been associated with a decline in infection rates,
prevention of severe disease, and a decrease in mortality rates. However, SARSCoV-2 variants are continuously evolving, ...
Animal models to study the neurological manifestations of the post-COVID-19 condition
(Nature Research, 2023-08-24)
More than 40% of individuals infected by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) have experienced
persistent or relapsing multi-systemic symptoms months after the onset of coronavirus ...
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 ...
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 ...
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 ...
Preclinical evaluation of PHH-1V vaccine candidate against SARS-CoV-2 in non-human primates
(Cell Press, 2023-06-28)
SARS-CoV-2 emerged in December 2019 and quickly spread worldwide, continuously striking with an unpredictable evolution. Despite the success in vaccine production and mass vaccination programs, the ...
Clinical, Pathological and Virological Outcomes of Tissue-Homogenate-Derived and Cell-Adapted Strains of Porcine Epidemic Diarrhea Virus (PEDV) in a Neonatal Pig Model
(MDPI, 2023-12-27)
Porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV) is characterized by diarrhea, vomiting, dehydration, and high mortality rates in neonatal piglets. Two distinct genogroups, S-INDEL (G1a, G1b) and
non-S INDEL ...
The economic impact of endemic respiratory disease in pigs and related interventions - a systematic review
(BMC, 2023-10-17)
Background Understanding the financial consequences of endemically prevalent pathogens within the porcine
respiratory disease complex (PRDC) and the effects of interventions assists decision-making ...
Immune responses following neonatal vaccination with conserved F4 fragment of VtaA proteins from virulent Glaesserella parasuis adjuvanted with CAF®01 or CDA
(Elsevier, 2023-06-10)
Glaesserella parasuis is a Gram-negative bacterium that colonizes the upper airways of swine, capable of causing a systemic infection called Glässer’s disease. This disease is more frequent in young ...
Experimental Inoculation of Porcine Circovirus 3 (PCV-3) in Pregnant Gilts Causes PCV-3-Associated Lesions in Newborn Piglets that Persist until Weaning
(Wiley, 2023-10-20)
Porcine circovirus 3 (PCV-3) has been detected in cases of reproductive failure but the pathogenesis of such infection is poorly
understood. So far, experimental PCV-3 inoculations have been performed ...
