Sodium Butyrate Abrogates the Growth and Pathogenesis of Mycobacterium bovis via Regulation of Cathelicidin (LL37) Expression and NF-κB Signaling

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2020
Mycobacterium bovis is the causative agent of bovine tuberculosis, has been identified a serious threat to human population. It has been found that sodium butyrate (NaB), the inhibitor of histone deacetylase, can promote the expression of cathelicidin ...

The role of host PrP in Transmissible Spongiform Encephalopathies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
PrP has a central role in the Transmissible Spongiform Encephalopathies (TSEs), and mutations and polymorphisms in host PrP can profoundly alter the host's susceptibility to a TSE agent.

TSE pathogenesis in cattle and sheep [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Many studies have been undertaken in rodents to study the pathogenesis of transmissible spongiform encephalopathies (TSE). Only a few studies have focused on the pathogenesis of bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) and scrapie in their natural hosts ...

Transcriptional analysis implicates endoplasmic reticulum stress in bovine spongiform encephalopathy. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) is a fatal, transmissible, neurodegenerative disease of cattle. To date, the disease process is still poorly understood.

The Role of the Gut Microbiota in the Pathogenesis of Parkinson's Disease

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology, 2019
It is well-recognized that the gut microbiota (GM) is crucial for gut function, metabolism, and energy cycles. The GM also has effects on neurological outcomes via many mechanisms, such as metabolite production and the gut-brain axis.

The Spectrum of Transmissible Spongiform Encephalopathies

open access: yesIntervirology, 1997
Since the first description by A.M. Jakob and H.G. Creutzfeldt, five human diseases have been identified as transmissible spongiform encephalopathies (TSE). The disease bearing these authors' name, Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD) occurs sporadically, may be transmitted and has a genetic basis in 10-15% of all cases.

No H- and L-type cases in Belgium in cattle diagnosed with bovine spongiform encephalopathy (1999-2008) aging seven years and older [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Background The bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) epidemic presented homogeneity of the phenotype. This classical BSE (called C-type) was probably due to the contamination of the food chain by a single prion strain.

State-of-the-art review of goat TSE in the European Union, with special emphasis on PRNP genetics and epidemiology [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Scrapie is a fatal, neurodegenerative disease of sheep and goats. It is also the earliest known member in the family of diseases classified as transmissible spongiform encephalopathies (TSE) or prion diseases, which includes Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease in ...

Endoplasmic Reticulum Stress Induces Macrophages to Produce IL-1β During Mycobacterium bovis Infection via a Positive Feedback Loop Between Mitochondrial Damage and Inflammasome Activation

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2019
Mycobacterium bovis, the causative agent of tuberculosis in cattle and humans, infects host macrophages and induces endoplasmic reticulum stress (ERS), mitochondrial damage, and interleukin (IL)-1β production. The relationship between these phenotypes is
