Legionella pneumophila modulates the host cytoskeleton by an effector of transglutaminase activity
Abstract The bacterial pathogen Legionella pneumophila delivers more than 330 effector proteins into host cells through its Dot/Icm type IV secretion system (T4SS) to facilitate its intracellular replication. A number of these effectors modulate organelle trafficking pathways to create a membrane‐bound niche called the Legionella‐containing vacuole ...

Sufficient reproduction numbers to prevent recurrent epidemics
Abstract Current practice in the design and evaluation of control measures in disease ecology and epidemiology, including vaccination, is largely based on reproduction numbers (RNs), which represent prognostic indices of long‐term disease transmission, both in naïve populations (basic RN) and in the presence of prior exposure or infection containment ...

Imaging Diagnosis—Sonographic Features of Bilateral Renal Lymphangiectasia in an Azotemic Dog
ABSTRACT A 9‐year‐old male neutered Labrador Retriever was referred for azotemia and bilateral renomegaly. An abdominal ultrasound revealed severe bilateral renomegaly with septated subcapsular cystic anechoic lesions, consistent with renal lymphangiectasia. Despite conservative management, the patient died.

The Asian longhorned tick, Haemaphysalis longicornis, is a significant global vector and threat to both agriculture and public health. Formerly known only in the Eastern Hemisphere, parthenogenetic ALT have been reported from 20 states across the eastern and central US, with a pattern of expansion suggestive of multiple distinct populations.

This report describes a canine patient with central nervous system–disseminated Coccidioides immitis infection that presented with the sole clinical abnormality of convergence‐retraction nystagmus (CRN). Brain MRI was performed with imaging characteristics, positive fungal serology and positive response to therapy confirming diagnosis.
