Evolutionary Origins and Virulence Determinants of ST25 Hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae in Swine: Genomic Insights and Functional Validation

open access: yesTransboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
The global spread of multidrug‐resistant hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae (MDR‐HvKp), among which carbapenem‐resistant strains are of major concern, poses a severe threat to public health due to its high mortality rate and extremely limited treatment options.

Design of B‐Cell Multi‐Epitope Subunit Vaccines Against Glaesserella parasuis by Reverse Vaccinology: An In Silico and In Vivo Study

open access: yesTransboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Glässer’s disease caused by Glaesserella parasuis (GPS) is a severe disease that results in substantial economic losses to the swine industry worldwide. Here we describe a multiepitope vaccine cocktail (MEVC) that was designed using reverse vaccinology and immunoinformatics. The MEVC was comprised of three multiepitope subunits (MESs, designated as TB,

A RNase H2‐Linked TaqMan‐MGB Quantitative Real‐Time PCR Assay for Differential Detection of Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae Live‐Attenuated Vaccine Strains

open access: yesTransboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae (M. hyopneumoniae), the etiological agent of porcine enzootic pneumonia, is one of the most prevalent and economically significant respiratory pathogens in the swine industry. Vaccination constitutes a primary strategy for controlling M. hyopneumoniae infections.

Development and Field Validation of a Double‐Antigen Sandwich Colloidal Gold Immunochromatographic Strip for Detection of Toxoplasma gondii Antibodies in Multiple Host Species

open access: yesTransboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Toxoplasmosis, a globally prevalent zoonosis caused by Toxoplasma gondii (T. gondii), poses major threats to both human and animal health, leading to reproductive losses in livestock and severe disease in immunocompromised individuals. Although enzyme‐linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and PCR are widely used for diagnosis and surveillance, they may be

Generation of an Etiology Index Based on Confirmed Tissue Diagnosis Data to Assess Endemic Swine Etiology Activity in the United States of America

open access: yesTransboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Global pork production has increased substantially over the past few decades, making swine a critical source of animal protein. However, endemic diseases in pigs continue to pose significant challenges to animal health, productivity, and food security. Several etiologies affect farm‐level performance and have broader implications for zoonotic risks and

Lipopolysaccharides of Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae bind pig hemoglobin [PDF]

open access: yesInfection and Immunity, 1995
A previous study indicated that lipopolysaccharides (LPS) extracted from Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae bind two low-molecular-mass proteins, of approximately 10 and 11 kDa, present in porcine respiratory tract secretions (M. Bélanger, D. Dubreuil, and M. Jacques, Infect. Immun. 62:868-873, 1994).

Animal Welfare‐Friendly Noninvasive Oral Fluid in Swine Diagnostics: Current Applications in Disease Monitoring, Key Challenges and Future Directions

open access: yesVeterinary Medicine International, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
The integration of oral fluid (OF) sampling into veterinary diagnostics represents a significant shift in animal herd health monitoring, offering a noninvasive alternative to traditional blood‐based methods. OF, predominantly composed of saliva, mucosal transudate and plasma‐derived components, contains immunoglobulins, acute‐phase proteins and nucleic

Incorporation of Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae in Preformed Biofilms by Escherichia coli Isolated From Drinking Water of Swine Farms

open access: yesFrontiers in Veterinary Science, 2018
Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae, the etiological agent of porcine pleuropneumonia, represents one of the most important health problems in the swine industry worldwide and it is included in the porcine respiratory disease complex.

Glycoproteomics and Its Role in Understanding Bacterial O‐Linked Glycosylation

open access: yesPROTEOMICS, Volume 25, Issue 21-22, Page 160-176, November 2025.
ABSTRACT Protein glycosylation is now recognized as a ubiquitous process observed in all domains of life. Within bacterial species, carbohydrates can be attached to multiple residues with glycosylation of serine, threonine, or tyrosine residues via their hydroxyl side chains referred to as O‐linked glycosylation.
