A case of bovine tuberculosis in pigs in Poland – a country free from the disease

open access: yesAnnals of Agricultural and Environmental Medicine, 2019
Introduction Bovine tuberculosis is a chronic contagious disease caused by Mycobacterium bovis or Mycobacterium caprae. Before widespread action conducted in Poland between 1959–1975 to combat bovine tuberculosis (BTB), about 40% of all tuberculosis ...

Binding of Bacillus subtilis dynamin‐like protein DynA to the bacterial membrane is essential for effective phage defense

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
The bacterial dynamin‐like protein DynA from Bacillus subtilis plays a key role in phage defense. It binds the plasma membrane through a unique paddle domain in its D1 subunit. This membrane association is essential for its protective function, likely preventing explosive membrane rupture following phage infection.

Epidemiological situation of bovine tuberculosis in the State of Pernambuco, Brazil

open access: yesSemina: Ciências Agrárias, 2016
The epidemiological situation of bovine tuberculosis was studied in the state of Pernambuco, Brazil. The state was divided into three regions, and a predetermined number of properties was randomly sampled in each region. In each property, females aged 24

Conditional deletion of the multiple sclerosis susceptibility gene ATXN1 identifies cell‐autonomous effects in the B‐cell compartment

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Ataxin‐1 is a polyglutamine protein associated with the etiology of spinocerebellar ataxia type 1 (SCA1) that has been recently found implicated in the risk of developing the autoimmune disorder multiple sclerosis (MS). Here, we took a conditional knockout approach to ablate ataxin‐1 exclusively in the B‐cell compartment and we found that this protein ...

Abrupt events and population synchrony in the dynamics of Bovine Tuberculosis

open access: yesNature Communications, 2018
The disease dynamics of bovine tuberculosis have been of interest given the pathogen’s effect on wild animal and livestock health. Here, the authors show that a brief cessation of testing for bovine tuberculosis in 2001 altered the population synchrony ...

The Dual Immunoregulatory Role of CREB3L1 Underlying Latent and Severe Tuberculosis Clinical Manifestation

open access: yesImmunology, EarlyView.
RNA‐seq of lungs and livers from Mycobacterium tuberculosis‐infected mice with distinct disease outcomes revealed organ‐specific responses driven by differences in immune activity and bacterial burden. Meta‐analysis identified orthologous genes shared with human latent TB and mouse liver, with Creb3l1, Myo7b, Cyyr1 and Cbs differentially expressed and ...
