Intensive or organic farming systems may expose pigs to management or environmental challenges. Our preliminary results concluded that organic farming might enhance adaptive immune function, showing that improvements in welfare can translate into measurable immunological benefits, based on the correlation between welfare assessment and physiological ...

Haptoglobin gene polymorphisms and interleukin-6 and -8 levels in patients with sickle cell anemia
BACKGROUND: Haptoglobin genotypes, and interleukin-6 and -8 participate in the pathophysiology of sickle cell anemia. The expression of cytokines is regulated by genetic mechanisms however the effect of haptoglobin polymorphisms on these cytokines is not

Cows with ketosis during the perinatal period often experience damage to the liver, a core metabolic organ, thereby exacerbating the disease's inherent vicious cycle. This study indicates that serum 3‐IAA concentrations were reduced in ketotic cows and show a significant negative correlation with hepatic TG content.

Haptoglobin modifies the hemochromatosis phenotype in mice
Classic hereditary hemochromatosis (HH) is a common genetic disorder of iron metabolism caused by a mutation in the HFE gene. Whereas the prevalence of the mutation is very high, the clinical penetrance of the disease is low, suggesting that the HFE ...

Ceftriaxone‐associated immune haemolytic anaemia: A patient‐level systematic review
Abstract Ceftriaxone can cause acute haemolysis. Its clinical presentation, risk factors, and outcomes remain incompletely characterized. We conducted a systematic review of published cases with patient‐level data, following international guidelines and with registration in PROSPERO (CRD420261338709). Reports were identified through three bibliographic

Abstract Haptoglobin (Hp) is a polymorphic acute phase α‐2 glycoprotein found in plasma that plays a critical role in binding, neutralizing, and removing cell‐free hemoglobin (Hb) from the circulation. Under clinical conditions characterized by high levels of hemolysis, such as in patients with sickle cell disease (SCD), large quantities of cell‐free ...

Haptoglobin inhibits phospholipid transfer protein activity in hyperlipidemic human plasma
Background Haptoglobin is a plasma protein that scavenges haemoglobin during haemolysis. Phospholipid Transfer Protein (PLTP) transfers lipids from Low Density Lipoproteins (LDL) to High Density Lipoproteins (HDL). PLTP is involved in the pathogenesis of

: Bovine respiratory disease (BRD) is a multifactorial disease which causes short- and long-term negative effects. Early detection is crucial for a prompt response to therapy, as well as to decrease mortality risk.
