Genome-Wide Detection of Allele Frequency Change and Quantitative Trait Loci for Respiratory Disease and Immune-Related Traits in Landrace Pigs Selected for Mycoplasmal Pneumonia of Swine Resistance [PDF]
Abstract Background: The genetic improvement of disease resistance in pig has been well-received. Identification of a quantitative trait locus (QTL) related to a chronic respiratory disease such as Mycoplasmal pneumonia of swine (MPS) and immune-related traits is important for understanding the genomic background of disease resistance and to ...

Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae is the causative agent of porcine enzootic pneumonia, a chronic respiratory disease in swine resulting in enormous economic losses. To identify the components that contribute to virulence and unveil those biological processes potentially related to attenuation, we used isobaric tags for relative and absolute quantification ...

Protection Efficacy of the rLTB-R1 Chimera against Experimental Swine Mycoplasmal Pneumonia
Background: Mycoplasma hyopneumoniaeis the etiological agent of the Swine Mycoplasmal Pneumonia (SMP), one of the most economically significant diseases in the swine industry worldwide. Commonly used vaccines for SMP control consist of inactivated whole cells (bacterins). These vaccines are efficacious against M.

Mycoplasma alkalescens demonstrated in bronchoalveolar lavage of cattle in Denmark [PDF]
Mycoplasma alkalescens is an arginine-metabolizing mycoplasma, which has been found in association with mastitis and arthritis in cattle. Routine bacteriological examination of 17 bronchoalveolar lavage samples from calves with pneumonia in a single herd

Recombinant 46-kilodalton surface antigen (P46) of Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae expressed in Escherichia coli can be used for early specific diagnosis of mycoplasmal pneumonia of swine by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay [PDF]
The 46-kDa surface antigen (P46) is the early and species-specific immunogenic protein of Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae. Three TGA codons encoding tryptophan in the P46 gene were replaced with TGG by an in vitro mutagenesis technique. The mutated P46 gene was expressed in Escherichia coli by using the chelating peptide tag system.

Oral immunization of mice with attenuated Salmonella typhimurium aroA expressing a recombinant Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae antigen (NrdF) [PDF]
Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae is the etiological agent of porcine enzootic pneumonia, a commercially expensive respiratory disease of swine. Salmonella typhimurium SL3261 was used as a live carrier of plasmid pKF1, which encodes a 15-kDa recombinant M ...
