Tick‐borne diseases in subtropical dairy farming: The role of calf rearing strategies in antibody and antigen prevalence Enfermedades Transmitidas por Garrapatas en la Ganadería Lechera subtropical: El Papel de las Estrategias de Crianza de Terneros en la Prevalencia de Anticuerpos y Antígenos

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, EarlyView.
Tropical farmers try to adapt calf‐rearing systems to temperate dairy industry standards. Calves in tick‐infested areas develop stronger immunity to TBD under controlled exposure to ticks. Early tick exposure promotes sustainable management, balancing tick infestation and developing TBD immunity.

Novel and emerging antimicrobial strategies in the management of oral infections

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Antibiotics marked a pivotal turning point in human civilization, enhancing social interactions and extending human life expectancy. In addition to their success in treating systemic infectious diseases, they have significantly improved periodontal treatment outcomes as an adjunct therapy.

Microglia are mediators of Borrelia burgdorferi-induced apoptosis in SH-SY5Y neuronal cells. [PDF]

PLoS Pathogens, 2009
Inflammation has long been implicated as a contributor to pathogenesis in many CNS illnesses, including Lyme neuroborreliosis. Borrelia burgdorferi is the spirochete that causes Lyme disease and it is known to potently induce the production of ...

Outer surface protein B is critical for Borrelia burgdorferi adherence and survival within Ixodes ticks.

PLoS Pathogens, 2007
Survival of Borrelia burgdorferi in ticks and mammals is facilitated, at least in part, by the selective expression of lipoproteins. Outer surface protein (Osp) A participates in spirochete adherence to the tick gut. As ospB is expressed on a bicistronic

Identification of Lupus Erythematosus Cells and Ragocytes in Peripheral Blood from a Dog with Systemic Lupus Erythematosus

Veterinary Clinical Pathology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A 3‐year‐old female‐intact German Shepherd presented for the evaluation of progressive shifting leg lameness, carpal swelling, and weight loss with a poor appetite since adoption about three months prior. Routine blood smear evaluation, lymph node, and synovial fluid cytologies all revealed rare neutrophils with cytoplasmic inclusions ...

Infection with the Neorickettsial Organism Stellantchasmus falcatus Agent in an Arctic Fox (Vulpes lagopus)

Veterinary Clinical Pathology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A 1‐year‐old female‐intact arctic fox (Vulpes lagopus) presented for diarrhea, lethargy, severe thrombocytopenia, and hyperbilirubinemia. Blood film evaluation revealed intracytoplasmic coccoid bacteria within moderate numbers of leukocytes consistent with infection by a rickettsial organism.

Quaternary structures of Streptococcus pneumoniae nucleoside diphosphate kinase: From hexamers to supramolecular assemblies

Protein Science, Volume 35, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract The nucleoside diphosphate kinase (NDK) is a key enzyme that controls the balance of nucleotide pools in all living organisms. Beyond this fundamental role, NDKs exert pleiotropic effects in many cellular processes, including cell development, signal transduction, differentiation, tumor metastasis, and gene expression. The quaternary structure

A cofactor‐promiscuous HMGR from the Lyme disease pathogen illuminates diversity in bacterial isoprenoid biosynthesis

Protein Science, Volume 35, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract The Lyme disease pathogen Borrelia burgdorferi contains a highly reduced genome lacking many primary metabolic pathways. However, B. burgdorferi retains the mevalonate pathway that synthesizes isopentenyl pyrophosphate (IPP), the precursor to the peptidoglycan carrier lipid.
