Protective immune response against Rhodococcus equi: An innate immunity‐focused review
Abstract Rhodococcus equi causes pyogranulomatous pneumonia in foals and immunocompromised people. Despite decades of research efforts, no vaccine is available against this common cause of disease and death in foals. The purpose of this narrative review is to summarise the current understanding of interactions between R. equi and the host innate immune

Sex‐dimorphic gene regulation in murine macrophages across niches
In this study, we perform a meta‐analysis of new and publicly available RNA‐seq datasets from male and female mouse macrophages across eight niches to identify conserved sex‐dimorphic gene expression patterns. We found that three sex chromosome‐linked genes are always differentially expressed between males and females: Ddx3y, Eif2s3y and Xist. However,

Ultrasonography and a retrograde urethrogram revealed the presence of a urinary bladder leakage. A celiotomy was performed to repair a urinary bladder tear, along with a biopsy of the urinary bladder wall ...
