Induction of CCL8/MCP-2 by mycobacteria through the activation of TLR2/PI3K/Akt signaling pathway. [PDF]
Pleural tuberculosis (TB), together with lymphatic TB, constitutes more than half of all extrapulmonary cases. Pleural effusions (PEs) in TB are representative of lymphocytic PEs which are dominated by T cells.

Phase and antigenic variation in mycoplasmas [PDF]
With their reduced genome bound by a single membrane, bacteria of the Mycoplasma species represent some of the simplest autonomous life forms. Yet, these minute prokaryotes are able to establish persistent infection in a wide range of hosts, even in the ...

Aminopeptidase Activity of Acholeplasma laidlawii, Mycoplasma bovirhinis, Mycoplasma dispar and Mycoplasma bovis [PDF]
Aminopeptidase activity was demonstrated in extracts of Acholeplasma laidlawii, Mycoplasma bovirhinis, M. bovis and M. dispar. The enzyme specificity, which differed amongst the mycoplasma species examined, was characterized using 19 aminoacyl-beta-naphthylamides as substrates.

Whole-Genome Sequencing and Concordance Between Antimicrobial Susceptibility Genotypes and Phenotypes of Bacterial Isolates Associated with Bovine Respiratory Disease. [PDF]
Extended laboratory culture and antimicrobial susceptibility testing timelines hinder rapid species identification and susceptibility profiling of bacterial pathogens associated with bovine respiratory disease, the most prevalent cause of cattle ...

Within-herd transmission of Mycoplasma bovis infections after initial detection in dairy cows.
Mycoplasma bovis outbreaks in cattle, including pathogen spread between age groups, are not well understood. Our objective was to estimate within-herd transmission across adult dairy cows, youngstock and calves.

Prevalence and Antimicrobial Susceptibility of Bovine Mycoplasma Species in Egypt
Among many bovine Mycoplasma species (spp.), Mycoplasma bovis is recognized as a significant causative agent of respiratory diseases in cattle. In recent years, resistant M. bovis isolates, especially to fluoroquinolones, have been reported globally as a

α-Enolase, an adhesion-related factor of Mycoplasma bovis. [PDF]
Mycoplasma bovis is the causative agent of Mycoplasma bovis-associated disease (MbAD). Although the mechanisms underlying M. bovis adherence to host cells is not clear, recent studies have shown that the cell surface protein α-enolase facilitates ...
