ELF5-Mediated Enhancer-Promoter Interaction Regulates LALBA Expression in Ovine Mammary Gland. [PDF]

Adv Sci (Weinh)
In the study, we systematically investigate the epigenetic mechanisms underlying lactation traits in sheep by integrating transcriptomic, chromatin accessibility, histone modification, and functional analyses. We identify a super‐enhancer at the LALBA locus and demonstrate that enhancer E4 functions as its core regulatory element.

Performance Estimation and Ex Vivo Validation of Untethered Magnetic Robots in Soft Tissue. [PDF]

Adv Sci (Weinh)
This study presents an empirical model that quantitatively predicts the step‐out frequency of screw‐type untethered magnetic robots (UMRs) in soft viscoelastic environments, including ex vivo brain tissue. By integrating key parameters into a dimensionless framework, the model enables estimation of robot performance across a range of biological ...

Ovine haemonchosis: a review [PDF]

Tropical Animal Health and Production, 2020
Sheep farming is the backbone of a rural economy in developing countries, and haemonchosis is a major impediment in the way of its progress. Haemonchus contortus (H. contortus) infection persists all over the world particularly in the tropical and sub-tropical regions.

The Ovine Cathelicidin SMAP29 Kills Ovine Respiratory Pathogens In Vitro and in an Ovine Model of Pulmonary Infection [PDF]

Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 2001
ABSTRACT Cathelicidins are antimicrobial peptides from sheep (SMAP29 and SMAP34), rabbits (CAP11 and CAP18), rodents (CRAMP), and humans (FALL39, LL37, and h/CAP18). In a broth microdilution assay against nine ovine pathogens, SMAP29, SMAP34, mouse CRAMP, CAP18, CAP18 31 , CAP18 28 ,

Ovine Pulmonary Cytomegalovirus [PDF]

Veterinary Pathology, 1979
Cytomegalic cells with intranuclear inclusions were identified in lung tissue from one of two weanling Western lambs with pneumonia and Mycoplasma ovipneumoniae infection. On the basis of light and electron microscopy, cytomegalovirus infection was diagnosed.

Non-structural Enterotoxin (NSP4) Gene based Molecular Characterization of Caprine and Ovine Rotavirus A, India

Journal of Pure and Applied Microbiology, 2020
Rotavirus A (RVA) causes viral gastroenteritis in humans and animals, including calves, piglets, and foals. The current study reports the genetic characterization of the full-length enterotoxin gene, NSP4, from caprine and ovine species.

Ovine toxoplasmosis

Parasitology, 2009
SUMMARYCongenital infection withToxoplasma gondiiis an important cause of abortion in sheep worldwide. The cat is the definitive host of the parasite, and infected cats may shed millions of oocysts in their faeces resulting in extensive environmental contamination and an important source of infection for grazing herbivorous animals.

Binding characteristics of the ovine membrane progesterone receptor alpha and expression of the receptor during the estrous cycle

Reproductive Biology and Endocrinology, 2009
Background Classically, progesterone has been thought to act only through the well-known genomic pathway involving hormone binding to nuclear receptors and subsequent modulation of gene expression.

Pellets enriched with healthy hay and quebracho are not sufficient to control gastrointestinal nematodes in meat sheep commercial flocks

Parasitology
The emergence of AH multiresistant GIN compromises sustainability of grassland sheep farming worldwide. Plants rich in condensed tannins are an alternative method of parasitism management that is currently being explored. Feed supplementation trials with
