Refining a preclinical model of viral myocarditis in accordance with biotech standards

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
This study aimed to refine a murine model of Coxsackievirus B3‐induced myocarditis by integrating dietary and imaging innovations to improve animal welfare, data quality, and clinical applicability. The refined diet significantly reduced animal health burden, reduced weight loss, and stabilized blood glucose during development of cardiac inflammation ...

[Evaluation of virulence factors in enterococcus species].

open access: yesMikrobiyoloji bulteni, 2017
Enterococci have recently become important due to their increased isolation rates in community-based and nosocomial infections and resistance to many antibiotics, including glycopeptides. The aim of this study was to evaluate the antimicrobial susceptible patterns and virulence factors of various clinical specimens; urine (n= 149), blood (n= 38), wound

Modeling Catheter‐Associated Bladder Mucosal Adhesion and Microtrauma Using a Human Urothelial Microtissue Model

open access: yesAdvanced NanoBiomed Research, EarlyView.
Intermittent catheter use can damage the urinary tract and predispose to infection. We deployed a complex human urothelial model to investigate. Catheter contact induced compressive and shear stress causing umbrella cell disruption, reduced barrier function, inflammation and increased cell adhesion to the catheter surface.

Virulence potential and host response to Cronobacter sakazakii [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Cronobacter sakazakii is in the Cronobacter genus (previously known as Enterobacter sakazakii), which consists in total of seven species. C. sakazakii strains in the clonal complex 4 (CC4), including sequence type 4 (ST4), have been strongly associated ...

Clonal analysis and virulence of Australian isolates of Streptococcus suis type 2 [PDF]

open access: yes, 1994
Multilocus enzyme electrophoresis was used to divide 124 Australian isolates of Streptococcus suis type 2 into 17 electrophoretic types (ETs). Isolates in ET 1 were the most frequent cause of disease amongst Western Australian pigs, but isolates of ET 8 ...

Chicken Pulmonary MicroRNAs Targeting the PB2 (Segment 1) of Avian Influenza Virus

open access: yesAnimal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
The PB2 segment of H5N1 is essential for replication and host adaptation. We screened 200 miRNAs and identified five (gga‐miR‐17‐3p, gga‐miR‐29a‐5p, gga‐miR‐1718, gga‐miR‐16c‐5p, and gga‐miR‐1744‐5p) using thermodynamic stability of heteroduplex, seed sequence complementarity, conservation, and accessibility, offering insights into host antiviral ...
