Assessment of current colostrum feeding practices and passive transfer of immunity in dairy herds in Great Britain: A cross‐sectional study

Veterinary Record, Volume 199, Issue 6, Page e262-e271, 19/26 September 2026.
Abstract Background Updated targets for measuring transfer of passive immunity (TPI) at the herd level have been suggested, but the current performance of dairy herds in Great Britain is unknown. Methods A cross‐sectional study was performed. Serum total protein (STP) data collected between October 2022 and October 2023 by 21 veterinary practices were ...

Modulation of the Bovine Delayed-Type Hypersensitivity Responses to Defined Mycobacterial Antigens by a Synthetic Bacterial Lipopeptide [PDF]

, 2003
The use of defined protein and peptide antigens can overcome specificity limitations of purified protein derivatives in the detection of bovine tuberculosis when the antigens are used in blood-based tests. Since the use of these specific antigens as skin

The Central Role of IFI204 in IFN-β Release and Autophagy Activation during Mycobacterium bovis Infection

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2017
Mycobacterium bovis (M. bovis) is the pathogen of animals and humans that can replicate in the phagosomes of myeloid cells. Cytosolic detection of bacterial products plays a crucial role in initiating the innate immune response, including autophagy ...

Bacteria‐Responsive Nanostructured Drug Delivery Systems for Targeted Antimicrobial Therapy

Advanced Materials, Volume 38, Issue 51, 11 September 2026.
Bacteria‐responsive nanocarriers are designed to release antimicrobials only in the presence of infection‐specific cues. This selective activation ensures drug release precisely at the site of infection, avoiding premature or indiscriminate release, and enhancing efficacy.

MMP9 Knockout by CRISPR‐Cas9 Reduces Bladder Cancer Malignancy But Does Not Synergize With BCG and Anti‐PD‐L1 in an Orthotopic Mouse Model

IUBMB Life, Volume 78, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Bladder cancer (BC) is the 10th most common cancer worldwide, accounting for approximately 5% of new cases. Several factors contribute to tumor progression, including increased MMP9. Recently, CRISPR‐Cas9 and immunotherapy have offered high specificity for treatments; therefore, we edited MMP9 using CRISPR‐Cas9 methodology to inhibit ...

CCL2 responses to Mycobacterium tuberculosis are associated with disease severity in tuberculosis. [PDF]

, 2009
BACKGROUND Leucocyte activating chemokines such as CCL2, CCL3, and CXCL8 together with proinflammatory IFNgamma, TNFalpha and downmodulatory IL10 play a central role in the restriction of M.
