Perinatal Gene Transfer to the Liver [PDF]

, 2011
The liver acts as a host to many functions hence raising the possibility that any one may be compromised by a single gene defect. Inherited or de novo mutations in these genes may result in relatively mild diseases or be so devastating that death within

Serological and Molecular Detection of Toxoplasma gondii Among Slaughtered Domestic Ruminants in Gondar Town, Northwest Ethiopia

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 11, Issue 6, November 2025.
GRAPHICAL ABSTRACT The overall positive findings of this T. gondi in slaughtered animals were 56.2% for serological tests, 21.2% for the first PCR and 10.6% for nested PCR. These comparative tests confirmed the presence of this disease in slaughtered animals. ABSTRACT Background Toxoplasma gondii is a globally prevalent zoonotic protozoan parasite that

Immunodeficiencies caused by infectious diseases. [PDF]

, 2010
Immunodeficiencies caused by infectious agents may result from disruption of normal host barriers or dysregulation of cellular immunity, the latter serving to promote survival of the infectious agent through immune evasion.

Heart failure is common in diabetic cats : findings from a retrospective case-controlled study in first-opinionpractice [PDF]

, 2007
Diabetes mellitus is common in the cat and the prevalence of this condition appears to be increasing (Peterson 1998,Rand and Marshall 2004, Rand and others 2004). The prognosis for cats with diabetes mellitus in first opinion practice has received little

Practical Application of Disease Risk Assessment in Native Species Reintroductions: A Case Study of a European Wildcat (Felis silvestris) Population Reinforcement in the Cairngorms National Park

Mammal Review, Volume 55, Issue 4, October 2025.
Disease risk assessment was conducted for the Saving Wildcats reintroduction project of captive‐bred European Wildcats (Felis silvestris) to the Cairngorms National Park. Hazards were identified, and appropriate pre‐and post‐release mitigation strategies were identified and implemented, illustrating the direct conservation application and significance ...

Clinical perspectives of emerging pathogens in bleeding disorders. [PDF]

, 2006
As a result of immunological and nucleic-acid screening of plasma donations for transfusion-transmissible viruses, and the incorporation of viral reduction processes during plasma fractionation, coagulation-factor concentrates (CFC) are now judged safe ...

Feline infectious peritonitis: role of the feline coronavirus 3c gene in intestinal tropism and pathogenicity based upon isolates from resident and adopted shelter cats. [PDF]

, 2012
Feline infectious peritonitis virus (FIPV) was presumed to arise from mutations in the 3c of a ubiquitous and largely nonpathogenic feline enteric coronavirus (FECV).

The Etiopathogenesis of Kawasaki Disease: Evolving Understanding of Diverse Triggers

Immunity, Inflammation and Disease, Volume 13, Issue 9, September 2025.
ABSTRACT Background Kawasaki disease (KD) is a leading cause of acquired heart disease in children. Evidence suggests that microbial and nonmicrobial triggers for KD differ across geographical regions and environmental conditions. Although the precise triggers remain unidentified, KD is likely caused by microbial or environmental agents acting on ...

Understanding the Enigmatic Dance of Immune‐Mediated Viral Infections and Their Pathogenetic Mechanisms

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 11, Issue 5, September 2025.
This graphical representation illustrates the multifaceted nature of the immune response in viral infections, demonstrating both its protective and potentially harmful aspects. While a properly regulated immune reaction facilitates viral clearance and promotes general recovery, an overly robust or misdirected response—exemplified by Type III or Type IV
