Sero-prevalences of selected cattle diseases in the Kafue flats of Zambia

Veterinary research communications, 2004
Sera from five traditionally managed herds grazing in the Kafue flats were tested for antibodies to bovine viral diarrhoea-mucosal disease (BVD-MD), parainfluenza 3 (PI3), infectious bovine rhinotracheitis-infectious pustular vulvovaginitis (IBR-IPV ...

Dimethyl Itaconate Alleviates Escherichia coli‐Induced Endometritis Through the Guanosine‐CXCL14 Axis via Increasing the Abundance of norank_f_Muribaculaceae

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The research findings indicate that dimethyl itaconate (DI) alleviates Escherichia coli (E. coli) induced endometritis by modulating the gut microbiota and enriching the abundance of norank_f_Muribaculaceae, thereby increasing the production of guanosine.

Origins, Dispersal, and Impact: Bidirectional Introgression Between Chinese and European Pig Populations

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study investigates bidirectional introgression between Chinese and European pig populations, revealing 3558 introgressed genomic segments and 30 structural variations. Analysis of the BMP2 region suggests its role in body size enhancement. By integrating ancient and modern genomes, the study highlights the impact of introgression on genetic ...

Prevalence of chlamydiae in dairy cattle herds and factors contributing to the spread of infections

Journal of Veterinary Research
Different Chlamydia species affect cattle and contribute to economic losses. One of them, C. pecorum, is a globally endemic livestock pathogen. Despite its endemicity, prevalence data from Poland have so far been limited.

LncRNA‐MEG3 Regulates Muscle Mass and Metabolic Homeostasis by Facilitating SUZ12 Liquid–Liquid Phase Separation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study has identified lncRNA‐MEG3 as a key regulator of muscle mass, promoting slow‐twitch muscle fibers and preventing muscle atrophy. By stabilizing the SUZ12/PRC2 complex through liquid–liquid phase separation (LLPS), lncRNA‐MEG3 influences mitochondrial function and lipid metabolism.

Effect of In-vitro Heat Stress Challenge on the function of Blood Mononuclear Cells from Dairy Cattle ranked as High, Average and Low Immune Responders [PDF]

BMC Vet Res 17, 233 (2021), 2021
The warming climate is causing livestock to experience heat stress at an increasing frequency. Holstein cows are particularly susceptible to heat stress because of their high metabolic rate. Heat stress negatively affects immune function, particularly with respect to the cell-mediated immune response, which leads to increased susceptibility to disease.

Molecular Dynamics Studies of Dog Prion Protein Wild-type and Its D159N Mutant [PDF]

Journal of Biomolecular Structure and Dynamics 2021 Volume 39, Issue 12, Pages 4234-4242, 2017
Prion diseases (e.g. "mad cow" disease in cattle, chronic wasting disease in deer and elk, CJD in humans) have been a major public health concern affecting humans and almost all animals. However, dogs are strongly resistant to prion diseases. Recently, it was reported that the single (surface) residue D159 is sufficient to confer protection against ...

Potent Cross‐neutralizing Antibodies Reveal Vulnerabilities of Henipavirus Fusion Glycoprotein

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Hendra and Nipah viruses (HNVs) pose significant threats to global health. This work reports potent cross‐neutralizing antibodies targeting the fusion glycoprotein (F) and reveals shared features of these antibodies and vulnerabilities of F, thereby guiding the rational design of countermeasures against HNVs and similar pathogens.
