Evolutionary and Ecological Determinants of the Phenology of Births in Wild Large Herbivores, a Systematic Review

open access: yesMammal Review, Volume 56, Issue 2, June 2026.
This semi‐systematic review supports the two dominant drivers of birth phenology: the seasonality and predation hypotheses. Even though there is evidence of their importance, the effects of female, offspring and population characteristics remain marginally accounted for. Asian and South and Central American species are currently understudied.

Polymerase chain reaction assay for the diagnosis of experimentally infected pregnant Sprague-Dawley rats with Brucella abortus biotype 1

open access: yesVeterinární Medicína, 2004
In order to diagnose the experimentally infected pregnant Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats with Brucella abortus biotype 1 using polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assay, the SD rats were injected subcutaneously at the dose of 1.0 × 109 colony forming units (cfu ...

Brucella abortus Proliferates in Decidualized and Non-Decidualized Human Endometrial Cells Inducing a Proinflammatory Response

open access: yesPathogens, 2020
Brucella spp. have been associated with abortion in humans and animals. Although the mechanisms involved are not well established, it is known that placental Brucella infection is accompanied by inflammatory phenomena.

Bacterial Extracellular Vesicles: New Hype or Hope to Explain Reproductive Host–Microbiota Interactions

open access: yesJournal of Extracellular Vesicles, Volume 15, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Rapid advances in microbiome research are transforming our understanding of human health and disease, with growing focus on the female reproductive tract as a critical but understudied niche. Evidence for a local microbiome largely derives from bacterial nucleic acid detection; however, the biological relevance of these signals remains debated,

Genomic Characterization Provides New Insights for Detailed Phage- Resistant Mechanism for Brucella abortus

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2019
As the causative agent of cattle brucellosis, Brucella abortus commonly exhibits smooth phenotype (by virtue of colony morphology) that is characteristically sensitive to specific Brucella phages, playing until recently a major role in taxonomical ...

Real-time detection of Brucella abortus, Brucella melitensis and Brucella suis

open access: yesMolecular and Cellular Probes, 2001
Real-time PCR-based assays specific for Brucella abortus, Brucella melitensis and Brucella suis were developed. The assays utilize an upstream primer that is derived from 3' end of the genetic element IS 711, whereas the downstream primers and probes are designed from signature sequences specific to a species or a biovar.

The Curious Case of CysE: Diversity and Distribution of Serine Acetyltransferases in Bacteria

open access: yesProteins: Structure, Function, and Bioinformatics, Volume 94, Issue 5, Page 1092-1103, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Serine acetyltransferase (CysE) is a member of the left‐handed β‐helix family of acetyltransferases that catalyze the rate limiting step in de novo cysteine biosynthesis. There are two isoforms of CysE that differ in length, with the shorter isoform lacking approximately 76 amino acids at the N‐terminus of the protein from the serine ...

Proteomic Analysis of Membrane Blebs of Brucella abortus 2308 and RB51 and Their Evaluation as an Acellular Vaccine

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2019
Membrane blebs are released from Gram-negative bacteria, however, little is known about Brucella blebs. This work pursued two objectives, the first was to determine and identify the proteins in the membrane blebs by proteomics and in silico analysis. The

Seroprevalence of Brucellosis Among Camels and Camel Owners in Ethiopia: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis (2000–2025)

open access: yesVeterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 3, May 2026.
• This systematic review and meta‐analysis included 45 articles, 39 focused on camels and 6 on camel farmers. • A total of 23,930 study participants were assessed, comprising 22,362 camels and 1568 camel farmers. • The overall pooled seroprevalence of brucellosis among camels and camel farmers was found to be 5.0%. • Subgroup analysis revealed that the
