Revealing Genomic Insights of the Unexplored Porcine Pathogen Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae Using Whole Genome Sequencing

Microbiology Spectrum, 2022
Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae (APP) is the causative agent of pleuropneumonia in pigs, one of the most relevant bacterial respiratory diseases in the swine industry. To date, 19 serotypes have been described based on capsular polysaccharide typing with

Probiotic supplementation reduces inflammatory profiles but does not prevent oral immune perturbations during SIV infection

Scientific Reports, 2021
HIV/SIV infections lead to massive loss of mucosal CD4 + T cells and breakdown of the epithelial mucosa resulting in severe microbial dysbiosis and chronic immune activation that ultimately drive disease progression.

Profiling microRNAs in lung tissue from pigs infected with Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae

BMC Genomics, 2012
Background MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a class of non-protein-coding genes that play a crucial regulatory role in mammalian development and disease. Whereas a large number of miRNAs have been annotated at the structural level during the latest years ...

Actinobacillus equuliSepticemia: an Unusual Zoonotic Infection [PDF]

Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 1998
ABSTRACTWe describe the isolation ofActinobacillus equulifrom the blood of a 53-year-old butcher with septicemia. This species of the genusActinobacillusis primarily associated with animals and animal diseases, especially septicemia in foals. This is the first report of the isolation ofA. equulifrom a human with septicemia.

Host cell specific activity of RTX toxins from haemolytic Actinobacillus equuli and Actinobacillus suis [PDF]

, 2003
We assessed and compared host cell specificity of the haemolytic and cytotoxic activity of the RTX toxins from Actinobacillus equuli, an equine pathogen, and Actinobacillus suis, which is pathogenic for pigs. The two bacterial species are closely related,
