Cleavage of E-cadherin by porcine respiratory bacterial pathogens facilitates airway epithelial barrier disruption and bacterial paracellular transmigration

Virulence, 2021
Airway epithelial cells are the first line of defense against respiratory pathogens. Porcine bacterial pathogens, such as Bordetella bronchiseptica, Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae, Glaesserella (Haemophilus) parasuis, and Pasteurella multocida, breach ...

Use of recombinant ApxIV in serodiagnosis of Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae infections and development of an ApxIV ELISA

, 2003
Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae (App) is the etiological agent of porcine pleuropneumonia. The virulence of the fifteen serotypes of App is mainly determined by the three major RTX toxins ApxI, ApxII and ApxIII, which are secreted by the different ...

Epigenetic Perspectives on Maternal Gut Microbiota's Impact on Embryonic and Fetal Development

Comprehensive Physiology, Volume 16, Issue 3, June 2026.
This review summarizes how maternal health and nutrition shape gut microbiota via epigenetics to regulate embryonic development. It highlights microbiota‐embryo interactions, disruption by prenatal chemical exposures, and personalized nutrition for disease prevention, offering novel insights and therapeutic targets.

Exploring the Genetic Diversity of Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae in Pigs with Pneumonia and Pleurisy at Slaughter

Microorganisms
Mycoplasma (M.) hyopneumoniae is the key pathogen of the porcine respiratory disease complex (PRDC) and contributes to pleurisy in pigs. Due to its limited metabolism and laborious cultivation, molecular tools are useful for diagnosis.

The Silent Link: Exploring the Impact of Periodontal Diseases on Head and Neck Carcinogenesis

Clinical and Experimental Dental Research, Volume 12, Issue 3, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Objectives Oral dysbiosis can accelerate the progression of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) by fostering a pro‐inflammatory, immunosuppressive, and metabolically altered environment. This narrative review examines the relationships between periodontitis‐associated bacteria and HNSCC, focusing on their impact on oncogenic pathways,

Extracellular Vesicles of Giardia duodenalis: Unravelling Their Virulence Factors and Potential to Induce Protection Against Experimental Giardiasis

Journal of Extracellular Biology, Volume 5, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are key mediators of intercellular communication, enabling trans‐kingdom exchange of proteins, nucleic acids, lipids, and metabolites. In Giardia duodenalis, EVs contribute to parasite survival, host–pathogen interactions, and immune modulation.

Bridging Rare to Common Diseases: Precision Medicine and the Transforming Landscape of Pediatric Allergy and Immunology

Pediatric Allergy and Immunology, Volume 37, Issue 6, June 2026.
This graphical abstract demonstrates a “rare‐to‐common” translational pipeline. Insights from rare monogenic conditions reveal key mechanisms of immune dysregulation. This knowledge informs the understanding of polygenic common allergic diseases, which share overlapping pathogenic pathways.

Otitis in pet guinea pigs: Causes, clinical signs, treatment and outcomes

Veterinary Record, Volume 198, Issue 9, Page e385-e395, 2/9 May 2026.
Abstract Background Otitis is a major disease impacting both pet guinea pigs and laboratory guinea pigs that are used as models in human otological studies. Methods Medical records from two veterinary clinics were retrospectively reviewed to identify guinea pigs diagnosed with computed tomography (CT)‐confirmed otitis between 2014 and 2023.
