Clothing as microbial fomites  in an equine veterinary hospital—Could interventions reduce nosocomial infection risk?

open access: yesEquine Veterinary Education, Volume 38, Issue 1, Page 37-45, January 2026.
Summary Background Clothing in human medical environments has been shown to be contaminated with micro‐organisms. There is little work in this area in the veterinary environment and none in equine veterinary environments. Objectives To characterise microbial contamination of veterinary clothing throughout a work shift in an equine hospital. The pattern

The Rhodococcus equi virulence protein VapA disrupts endolysosome function and stimulates lysosome biogenesis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Rhodococcus equi (R. equi) is an important pulmonary pathogen in foals that often leads to the death of the horse. The bacterium harbors a virulence plasmid that encodes numerous virulence-associated proteins (Vaps) including VapA that is essential for ...

Drug Design and Delivery for Intracellular Bacteria: Emerging Paradigms

open access: yesDrug Development Research, Volume 86, Issue 8, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Intracellular bacteria exploit host cell niches, such as lysosomes, phagosomes, cytosol, entire cells, and even erythrocytes, to evade immune clearance and escape conventional antibiotics. These environments pose numerous therapeutic challenges, including crossing host cell membranes, navigating endosomal trafficking, tolerating acidic and ...

Novel Nonsense Mutation in SMARCD2 Gene Results in Dysplasia of All Myeloid Cell Lines

open access: yeseJHaem, Volume 6, Issue 6, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Introduction Specific granule deficiency type II (SGD2) is a rare heterogeneous congenital disease characterized by early‐onset life‐threatening infections. SGD2 is caused by autosomal recessive mutations in the SMARCD2 gene. Methods Prenatal screening in our patient revealed a novel homozygous nonsense mutation in SMARCD2 (c.208C>T, p.Gln70*).

Antimicrobial prescribing guidelines for horses in Australia

open access: yesAustralian Veterinary Journal, Volume 103, Issue 12, Page 781-889, December 2025.
The growing problem of antimicrobial resistance also affects equine veterinarians with increasing frequency. Antimicrobial stewardship and responsible prescribing are essential for a future in which effective antimicrobials are available, as it is unlikely that new antimicrobials will become available for use in horses.

Tear Film Osmolarity in Horses With Bacterial Conjunctivitis

open access: yesVeterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 11, Issue 6, November 2025.
This study evaluated tear film osmolarity in horses with bacterial conjunctivitis. Although osmolarity values were higher in affected horses compared to healthy ones, the difference was not statistically significant. These findings highlight the need for further research before tear osmolarity can be considered a reliable diagnostic marker in equine ...
