Resumo: As úlceras abomasais atingem bovinos de todas as idades e raças em todos os sistemas de produção, gerando perdas econômicas. A úlcera resulta da isquemia, atraindo leucócitos e macrófagos, estimulando fibroblastos, células endoteliais e epiteliais. A proteína do grupo de alta mobilidade 1 (HMGB1) liga-se a diferentes receptores de superfície celular, incluindo Toll-like-2 (TLR-2) e -4 (TLR-4), produzindo citocinas.

Abstract: Abomasal ulcers affect cattle of all ages and breeds in all production systems, leading to economic losses. The ulcer resulting from tissue ischemia, attracting leukocytes and macrophages, stimulates fibroblasts, endothelial and epithelial cells. The protein of high mobility group 1 (HMGB1) binds to different cell surface receptors, including Toll - like - 2 (TLR - 2) and 4 (TLR - 4) resulting in cytokine production. The presence of HMGB1 causes increased levels of vascula r endothelial growth factor (VEGF), a key regulator of angiogenesis. Thus, it was investigated whether HMGB1, TLR - 2, TLR - 4 and VEGF play a role in abomasal ulcers in beef cattle. A total of 150 abomasums from beef cattle were examined in a slaughterhouse; 17 samples were collected from the cardiac region. The extracted tissues were divided into normal group (without ulceration of the mucosa); type 1 ulcers (unperforated erosions with minimal mucosal injury) and type 2 ulcers (unperforated erosions combined with moderate bleeding of the mucosa) and confirmed by histopathology. Gene expression was evaluated by RT qPCR in samples of normal or ulcerated abomasums. Data were analyzed by ANOVA followed by Bonferroni test at p <0.05. No difference in expression of HMGB1, TLR - 4 and VEGF was detected between the two types of ulcers when compared to normal abomasums. TLR - 2 expression was higher in type 2 ulcers than in type 1 ulcers. Increased TLR - 2 expression might be associated with the maintenance of abomasal healin g, promoting the inflammatory response, as evidenced by the presence of mononuclear cell infiltration and neutrophils

The tick Rhipicephalus (Boophilus) microplus is an ectoparasite that cause economic losses to brazilian livestock. In this work, it was evaluated the toxicity of Palicourea marcgravii and Derris negrensis extracts and Piper aduncum extracts and essential oil for R. microplus. Extract of leaves of P. aduncum and P. marcgravii and stems of D. negrensis were prepared with hexane, ethyl acetate and ethanol solvents. The extracts activity was evaluated on adult ticks at concentrations of 5, 25, 50, 75 and 100 mg/ml, in order to verify mortality and reproduction of the acarids, being observed that among the extracts of three species evaluated, one that showed higher acaricidal potential was the ethyl acetate extract of P. marcgravii, which caused mortality rates of engorged female between 24 and 78%, estimating CL50 = 30,08 mg/ml; it have inhibited 100% of the oviposition, estimating CI50 = 5,79 mg/ml. It was evaluated too the extracts effect of the three plants at concentrations of 1, 5, 10, 15 and 20 mg/ml on R. microplus larvae, verifying that the P. marcgravii ethyl extract was more efficient inducing mortality rates that ranged from 30,32 to 95,11%, estimating CL50 = 2,46 mg/ml. The action of P. aduncum essential oil was evaluated on larvae too, inducing the total mortality of the same ones in all concentrations evaluated. The essential oil was analyzed by Gas Chromatography (GC) and Gas Chromatography coupled Mass Spectrum (GC/MS) showing dilapiol as the major compound (94,84%). The D. negrensis extracts didn t estimate CL50 for engorged female and larvae of R. microplus. These results indicate the acaricidal potential of the P. marcgravii extracts and P. aduncum essential oil, and could be an alternative of control against that tick species.

Pełny tekst źródłaThe objective of this research was to investigate neosporosis in New Zealand cattle using experimental and molecular tools. The research also aimed to isolate and characterise an indigenous New Zealand isolate of Neospora caninum. A series of discrete projects were conducted to achieve the set objectives. A pilot study was first conducted and a wild-type strain of non-cytopathic bovine viral diarrhoea virus (BVDV) type 1 virus was isolated in vitro from a persistently infected heifer. The isolate was used to challenge heifers and the effect of experimental BVDV infection on heifers naturally infected with N. caninum was investigated. Results showed that heifers that were both BVDV and N. caninum seropositive produced 44.4% (8/ 18) damcalf pairs that were both BVDV and N caninum seropositive. Serologically, 66.7% (12/18) dam-calf pairs were seropositive to N. caninum antibodies, while 80% (8/10) dam-calf pairs were BVDV seropositive. A Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) study was also conducted and N. caninum DNA was detected in the blood of naturally infected aborting and pregnant heifers. Real-time quantification of N. caninum DNA in the blood of infected heifers showed a decrease of N. caninum DNA after abortion in the aborting group and an increase through gestation in the pregnant group. A study of antigenicity recognised 7 immunodominant (~18, ~25, ~33, ~35~36, ~45~46, ~47 and 60-62 kDa) and 5 minor antigens of N. caninum by cow sera. Three isolates of N. caninum (NcNZ 1 ,NcNZ 2 and NcNZ 3) were isolated from the brains of an infected cow, her calf and a stillborn calf. These isolates were confirmed as N. caninum by PCR, immunofluorescence antibody test and immunohistochemistry and were pathogenic to BALB/c mice.

Znajdź pełny tekst źródłaBovine respiratory disease (BRD) is an ongoing health and economic issue in the dairy and beef cattle industry. Also, there are multiple risk factors that make an animal susceptible to BRD and it's diagnosis and treatment is a challenge for producers. Four bacterial species, Mannheimia haemolytica, Pasteurella multocida, Histophilus somni, and Mycoplasma bovis have been associated with BRD mortalities. Hence, this study aims to characterize the cattle nasal microbiome as a potential additional diagnostic method to identify animals suspected to have a lung infection. Quantitative PCR and 16S rRNA gene sequencing were used to determine the bacterial load of these four bacterial pathogens in the nasal microbiome of apparently healthy (N=75) and (N=58) affected by BRD Holstein steers. We then sought to identify a value or equation that could be used to discriminate between BRD and healthy animals using a Linear Discriminant Model (LDA). Additionally, co-occurrence between commensal bacterial and BRD-pathogens were also identified. Cattle diagnosed with BRD presented lower richness, evenness and phylogenetic diversity than healthy pen-mates. Bacterial species and genera Truperella pyrogenes and Bibersteina were increased in the BRD group, and the species Mycoplasma bovirhinis and Clostridium sensu stricto increased in the healthy group. Prevalence of H. somni (98%) and P. multocida (97%) were the highest regardless of disease diagnosis in all the samples. Prevalence of M. haemolytica (81 vs. 61%) and M. bovis (74 vs. 50.7%) were higher in the BRD group. The bacterial density of M. haemolytica and M. bovis was also higher in the BRD group, whereas Histophilus somni was lower in the BRD group. Five different models were tested using LDA, and one model produced a sensitivity and specificity of 60% and 81% agreement with diagnosis based on animal symptoms. Co-occurrence analysis demonstrated that the nasal microbiome members are more likely to interact with each other than associations between BRD-pathogens and nasal microbiome members. This study offers insight into the BRD-pathogens prevalence and difference in nasal microbiome between healthy and BRD animals and provides a potential platform for future studies and potential pen-side diagnostic testing.

Most of the species collected in the bait traps were those associated with permanent and semipermanent fresh water breeding sites, and the dominant species was Culex annulirostris, which accounted for over 70 per cent of the collections (Liehne et al. 1976a; Stanley 1979). Thus the major vector species for MVE virus was shown to be abundant in the Ord River irrigation area. The major mosquito breeding areas were in swampland adjacent to the diversion dam. Little breeding activity was found in the irrigation area probably due to the excessive use of insecticides applied by aerial spraying for controlling insect pests on cotton crops. However, cotton was discontinued as a crop in 1975, and an increased number of mosquitoes began to appear in 1976. • Viruses. Pools of mosquitoes were processed for virus isolation by intracerebral inoc-ulation of macerated mosquito supernatants into suckling mice. A total of 195 strains of 16 arboviruses were isolated from 1075 pools, of which 29 were identified as MVE virus and 21 as Kunjin virus. The majority of the isolates were made from Culex annulirostris (153 of 195 isolations), including 28 of 29 identified as MVE. Thus the overall virus isolation rate was high (18 per cent). For MVE virus from Culex annulirostris, 3.5 per cent of pools yielded virus at an approximate rate of 1 infected mosquito per 1459 uninfected mosquitoes (Liehne et al. 1976b; 1981). • Serological studies of animals and birds. All the early serological investigations employed the haemagglutination-inhibition (HI) assay. Cattle sera obtained from the Ord River irrigation area exhibited a high incidence of antibody to MVE virus (80 per cent positive), but the incidence declined to 37 per cent positivity in sera collected elsewhere in the Kimberley region (Liehne et al. 1976c). A very significant increase in the incidence of antibody to MVE was observed in cattle between 1972 and 1975 in the irrigation area and nearby cattle properties, with increases ranging from between 22 and 36 per cent to between 75 and 90 per cent (Stanley 1979). While the establishment of the irrigation area and the completion of the Ord River dam were undoubtedly responsible for some of this increase, it is probable that the very heavy ‘wet’ season rainfall in 1973–74 also contributed. • Of 335 sera collected from 31 avian species, 195 were found to have antibody to MVE virus. Although only a few species were sampled in moderate or large num-bers, it was interesting to note that the incidence of antibody was similar between waterbirds and non-waterbirds (56 and 59 per cent, respectively), and between differ-ent avian orders: Ciconiiformes (herons, egrets), 62 per cent; Anseriformes (ducks, grebes), 55 per cent; and Psittaciformes (parrots), 56 per cent, (Liehne et al. 1976c). • Human serological studies. A total of 441 human sera were collected in the Ord River area, of which 293 were from Caucasians and 148 from Aboriginals. A very high incidence of MVE antibodies was observed in the Aboriginal population, with 96 per cent of adults and 77 per cent of children exhibiting antibodies. In the Caucasian pop-ulation, the incidence of MVE virus antibodies was 53 per cent in adults and 24 per". W Water Resources, 129. CRC Press, 1998. http://dx.doi.org/10.4324/9780203027851-22.
