Assessing the effects of the first 2 years of industry-led badger culling in England on the incidence of bovine tuberculosis in cattle in 2013–2015 [PDF]

, 2017
Culling badgers to control the transmission of bovine tuberculosis (TB) between this wildlife reservoir and cattle has been widely debated. Industry-led culling began in Somerset and Gloucestershire between August and November 2013 to reduce local badger

Bovine tuberculosis in Swedish farmed deer [PDF]

, 2004
Bovine tuberculosis (BTB) was introduced into Swedish farmed deer herds in 1987. Epidemiological investigations showed that 10 deer herds had become infected (July 1994) and a common source of infection, a consignment of 168 imported farmed fallow deer ...

Exploring the fate of cattle herds with inconclusive reactors to the tuberculin skin test [PDF]

, 2018
Bovine tuberculosis (TB) is an important animal health issue in many parts of the world. In England and Wales, the primary test to detect infected animals is the single intradermal comparative cervical tuberculin test, which compares immunological ...

Cathepsin K Aggravates Pulmonary Fibrosis Through Promoting Fibroblast Glutamine Metabolism and Collagen Synthesis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
CTSK plays a critical role in pulmonary fibrosis. Excessive CTSK accumulation interacts with SNX9 to enhance TGF‐β1‐induced SMAD3 activation and GLS1 expression in fibroblasts, driving glutamine metabolism for collagen biosynthesis and exacerbating pulmonary fibrosis.

Flow cytometric detection of gamma interferon can effectively discriminate Mycobacterium bovis BCG-vaccinated cattle from M. bovis-infected cattle [PDF]

, 2006
Mycobacterium bovis is the causative agent of bovine tuberculosis, a disease that is increasing in incidence in United Kingdom cattle herds. In addition to increasing economic losses, the rise in bovine tuberculosis poses a human health risk. There is an

Targeting Cystine Metabolism in the Lung Cancer Environment Enhances the Efficacy of Immune Checkpoint Inhibition

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The tumor‐associated macrophages (TAMs) in lung cancer tissues exhibit active cystine metabolism. Restricting cystine concentration in macrophages induces M1 phenotypic polarization and upregulation of PD‐L1 expression through the GSH‐NF‐κB signaling pathway.

Bovine tuberculosis: a retrospective study at Jos abattoir, Plateau State, Nigeria

The Pan African Medical Journal, 2016
INTRODUCTION: Nigeria has the thirteenth highest burden of human tuberculosis. The current increasing incidence of tuberculosis in humans, particularly in immune-compromised persons, has given interest in the zoonotic importance of Mycobacterium bovis in

Prevalence of bovine tuberculosis in cattle in the highlands of Cameroon based on the detection of lesions in slaughtered cattle and tuberculin skin tests of live cattle

, 2018
Bovine tuberculosis (TB) is an important neglected zoonosis in Cameroon, where many communi- ties depend on their livestock for livelihood and the incidence of human TB and TB-HIV/AIDS co-infection are high and increasing annually.

Wildlife-livestock interactions and risk areas for cross-species spread of bovine tuberculosis [PDF]

, 2017
The transmission of diseases between livestock and wildlife can be a hindrance to effective disease control. Maintenance hosts and contact rates should be explored to further understand the transmission dynamics at the wildlife-livestock interface ...
