Reconstruction of deep and perforating corneal defects in dogs—A review (Part II/III): Biomaterials and keratoprosthesis

Veterinary Ophthalmology, Volume 28, Issue 2, Page 532-542, March 2025.
Abstract The surgical reconstruction of severe corneal ulcers is a common and crucial component of the clinical practice of veterinary ophthalmology. Numerous surgical techniques are used in dogs for corneal reconstruction, and these techniques may be categorized by the material used to repair the corneal lesion.

Limited Efficacy of Autologous Mesenchymal Stromal Cell Injections in Immunomodulatory‐Dependent Dogs With Aqueous Deficient Dry Eye Disease

Veterinary Ophthalmology, Volume 29, Issue 5, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Objective Aqueous deficient dry eye disease (ADDE) results from a quantitative reduction in aqueous tears. We sought to determine the clinical effect of autologous mesenchymal stromal cell (MSC) injections into the region of the lacrimal gland and the gland of the third eyelid in immunomodulatory‐dependent ADDE‐affected dogs. Methods Dogs (n =

Conjunctival Sac‐Derived Lactobacillus mucosae MM‐1 Metabolite Indole‐3‐Lactic Acid Attenuates Lens‐Induced Myopia in Mice via AHR Activation and TGF‐β/Smad Inhibition

Microbial Biotechnology, Volume 19, Issue 8, August 2026.
This study proposes a ‘conjunctival sac microecology‐metabolite‐scleral remodelling’ regulatory axis, highlighting the potential role of conjunctival sac microbiota in maintaining ocular surface health and regulating lens‐induced myopia in mice, providing an important theoretical foundation for the development of microbiome‐based interventions for ...

Infectious keratoconjunctivitis in semi-domesticated Eurasian tundra reindeer (Rangifer tarandus tarandus): microbiological study of clinically affected and unaffected animals with special reference to cervid herpesvirus 2

BMC Veterinary Research, 2018
Background Infectious keratoconjunctivitis (IKC) is one of the most common ocular diseases in ruminants worldwide. In addition to keratitis and conjunctivitis, animals with IKC can develop uveitis, corneal ulcer, and in severe cases, blindness.

Canine Leishmaniasis in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil (2000–2015): Taxonomic Characterisation of Etiological Agents and Geospatial Case Analysis

Zoonoses and Public Health, Volume 73, Issue 4, Page 314-325, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Introduction Canine Leishmaniasis is a vector‐borne zoonotic disease caused by several species of protozoa of the genus Leishmania. In the state of Rio de Janeiro (RJ), Leishmania braziliensis is the most prevalent species causing tegumentary leishmaniasis (TL) and Leishmania infantum is the main causative agent of visceral leishmaniasis (VL).

Drift of antimicrobial resistance of bacterial pathogens of the Moraxella group [PDF]

BIO Web of Conferences
The multiple resistance of bacteria to antibiotics leads to a decrease in the effectiveness of treatment methods for bacterial diseases, an increase in morbidity and mortality and, in some cases, to prolonged bacterial transmission.

Antimicrobial Activity of Ultraviolet C Light as a Potential Novel Treatment for Moraxella bovis Infection—An In Vitro Study

Veterinary Ophthalmology, Volume 29, Issue 2, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Objective To investigate the antimicrobial effect of 275 nm wavelength ultraviolet C (UV‐C) light on M. bovis using an affordable, broadly available modified handheld device and to determine if photoreactivation plays a role in bacterial resistance to UV‐C. Methods UV‐C therapy (UVCT) was evaluated in vitro using triplicates of 3 M.

Landscape of exposure: Metapopulation dynamics and local environment structure pathogen exposure in desert bighorn sheep

Ecosphere, Volume 16, Issue 12, December 2025.
Abstract Dynamics of infectious disease in natural populations result from processes across scales, from host characteristics shaping exposure risk and susceptibility, to local environmental conditions driving vector populations, to the structure of metapopulation networks shaping transmission of pathogens across the landscape.
