Expression levels of immune markers in infected pigs and their relation to breed and clinical symptoms [PDF]

, 2009
Background In pigs little is known about the role of innate immune defence in bacterial infections of the respiratory tract, despite their major role in pig production. In the present study we characterized and compared in vitro and in vivo activation of

Rapid Detection and Typing of Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae Serovars Directly From Clinical Samples: Combining FTA® Card Technology With Multiplex PCR

Frontiers in Veterinary Science, 2021
Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae (APP), the causative agent of porcine pleuropneumonia, is highly contagious and responsible for high morbidity, mortality, and economic losses in the swine industry worldwide, but quick serotyping and diagnosis are still ...

Seroprevalence of Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae in swine originated from commercial farms in Serbia [PDF]

Biotechnology in Animal Husbandry, 2014
Porcine pleuropneumonia caused by Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae (A.pleuropneumoniae) is one of the most important respiratory diseases of pigs and causes worldwide severe losses in pig farming.

Recombinant tandem epitope vaccination provides cross protection against Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae challenge in mice

AMB Express, 2020
Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae (A. pleuropneumoniae/APP) is the pathogen that causes porcine contagious pleuropneumonia. Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae is divided into 18 serovars, and the cross protection efficacy of epitopes is debatable, which has ...

Phenotype‐Specific Semi‐Mechanistic Modelling of Florfenicol Time‐Kill Curves in G. Parasuis Compared to Other Respiratory Pathogens

Journal of Veterinary Pharmacology and Therapeutics, Volume 48, Issue 4, Page 318-339, July 2025.
ABSTRACT This study examines the pharmacodynamics (PD) of florfenicol (FFN) for treating porcine respiratory diseases by comparing its effects on Glaesserella parasuis, Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae and Pasteurella multocida. In vitro time‐kill assays and semi‐mechanistic PD modeling were used to assess bacterial growth and killing rates at varying ...

Proposal of serovars 17 and 18 of Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae based on serological and genotypic analysis [PDF]

, 2018
The aim of this study was to investigate isolates of Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae previously designated serologically either as NT or as ‘K2:07’, which did not produce serovar-specific amplicons in PCR assays.

Real-time quantitative PCR for detection and identification of Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae serotype 2

Journal of Veterinary Research, 2016
Introduction: Porcine pleuropneumonia inflicts important economic losses on most commercial herds. Detection of subclinical or chronic infection in animals still remains a challenge, as isolation and identification of A.

Molecular characterisation of the early response in pigs to experimental infection with Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae using cDNA microarrays

Acta Veterinaria Scandinavica, 2007
Background The bacterium Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae is responsible for porcine pleuropneumonia, a widespread, highly contagious and often fatal respiratory disease of pigs. The general porcine innate immune response after A.

Involvement of the Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae ompW Gene in Confrontation of Environmental Pressure

Frontiers in Veterinary Science, 2022
Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae causes porcine pleuropneumonia. The function of the outer membrane protein W gene (ompW) of A. pleuropneumoniae has not been evaluated.

The Arms Race Between Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae and Its Genetic Environment: A Comprehensive Analysis of Its Defensome and Mobile Genetic Elements

Molecular Microbiology, Volume 124, Issue 1, Page 40-53, July 2025.
Using bioinformatic tools, we identified a diverse defensome in Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae, featuring various defense mechanisms. Genomes show co‐occurring systems like CRISPR, Abi, and restriction‐modification (RM) systems, underscoring the complexity and dynamic nature of their defensome cargo.
