B-Cell Response during Protozoan Parasite Infections

open access: yesJournal of Parasitology Research, 2012
In this review, we discuss how protozoan parasites alter immature and mature B cell compartment. B1 and marginal zone (MZ) B cells, considered innate like B cells, are activated during protozoan parasite infections, and they generate short lived plasma ...

Impacts of rodents in piggeries in Australia – review and pilot impact study

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Rodent impacts in Australian piggeries are under‐researched, with limited data on economic losses and control costs. A review and pilot study found average losses of AUD$100 000 annually. Key concerns include disease, damage, and control expenses.

Drug target identification in protozoan parasites [PDF]

open access: yesExpert Opinion on Drug Discovery, 2016
Despite the fact that diseases caused by protozoan parasites represent serious challenges for public health, animal production and welfare, only a limited panel of drugs has been marketed for clinical applications.Herein, the authors investigate two strategies, namely whole organism screening and target-based drug design.

Associations between early life exposure to parvovirus and antibiotic treatment and the occurrence and severity of later chronic enteropathy in dogs

open access: yesVeterinary Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Canine parvovirus (CPV) infection is reportedly associated with chronic enteropathy (CE), but infected puppies are often treated with antibiotics, which may also promote CE. This study aims to compare the presence and severity of CE among dogs that were CPV‐infected, treated with antibiotics or healthy during puppyhood.
