Copper homeostasis; A rapier between mycobacteria and macrophages

FASEB BioAdvances, Volume 7, Issue 1, January 2025.
Copper is a vital trace element crucial for mediating interactions between Mycobacterium and macrophages. Within these immune cells, copper modulates oxidative stress responses and signaling pathways, enhancing macrophage immune functions and facilitating Mycobacterium clearance.

Sequence variants associated with resilient responses in growing pigs

Journal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, Volume 142, Issue 1, Page 79-91, January 2025.
Abstract The current work aimed to identify genomic regions and candidate genes associated with resilience in pigs. In previous work, we proposed the body weight deviation from the expected growth curve (ΔBW) and the increase of the positive acute‐phase protein haptoglobin (ΔHP) after a vaccine challenge as resilience indicators which may be improved ...

Control of Paratuberculosis in Sheep and Goats

Veterinary Clinics of North America: Food Animal Practice, 2011
Control of paratuberculosis in small ruminants can be easily achieved by vaccination. Vaccination prevents clinical cases and thus may lead to increased production at a highly profitable benefit-to-cost ratio. Because bacterial shedding is greatly reduced, vaccination can help control the general contamination risks.

Risks of foodborne pathogens associated with animal contamination of raw‐agricultural commodities: A review

Comprehensive Reviews in Food Science and Food Safety, Volume 23, Issue 6, November 2024.
Abstract Pathogens that cause foodborne illness can contaminate raw‐agricultural produce via animal intrusion and defecation in production fields. The Food and Drug Administration's Produce Safety Rule and related guidance cite published research on animal intrusion risk and risk‐reduction practices.

Hepatite granulomatosa em bovino causada por Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis

Arquivo Brasileiro de Medicina Veterinária e Zootecnia, 2010
Samples from intestines, liver, and lymph nodes were collected from a dairy steer with clinical suspicion of paratuberculosis. The samples were processed for histologic examination with hematoxylin-eosin and Zihel-Neelsen (ZN) staining for the detection ...

Phagolysosomal resistance hypothesized to be a danger signal

Scandinavian Journal of Immunology, Volume 100, Issue 4, October 2024.
Does the adaptive immune system detect and respond to microbial resistance to innate immune effectors? Is physical linkage between epitopes of pathogenic antigens, an underlying thread running through much of mammalian immune response? Can enzymatic detoxification of reactive oxygen species and nitric oxide work as an adjuvant in vaccines?

Description of the Infection Status in a Norwegian Cattle Herd Naturally Infected by Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis

Acta Veterinaria Scandinavica, 2005
The Norwegian surveillance and control programme for paratuberculosis revealed 8 seroreactors in a single dairy cattle herd that had no clinical signs of Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis (M. a. paratuberculosis) infection.
