Local and systemic immune mediators of Morada Nova lambs with divergent Haemonchus contortus resistance phenotypes
(2020-01-01)
Aims: Local and systemic immune mediators of Morada Nova lambs with divergent Haemonchus contortus resistance phenotypes were evaluated. Methods and Results: Lambs were ranked through faecal egg counts (FEC) after two ...
Detection of Selection Signatures Among Brazilian, Sri Lankan, and Egyptian Chicken Populations Under Different Environmental Conditions
(Frontiers Media Sa, 2019-01-14)
Extreme environmental conditions are a major challenge in livestock production. Changes in climate, particularly those that contribute to weather extremes like drought or excessive humidity, may result in reduced performance ...
Innate immune responses associated with resistance against haemonchus contortus in morada nova sheep
(2019-01-01)
The immune response against Haemonchus contortus infections is primarily associated with the Th2 profile. However, the exact mechanisms associated with increased sheep resistance against this parasite remains poorly ...
The impact of intradialytic exercise on immune cells expressing CCR5+ in patients with chronic kidney disease: A cross-over trial
(2021-01-01)
The C-C chemokine receptor type 5 (CCR5) plays a role in the immunopathogenesis of chronic kidney disease (CKD). Exercise has anti-inflammatory properties that may contribute to the rehabilitation of CKD patients. To date, ...
From moths to caterpillars: Ideal conditions for Galleria mellonella rearing for in vivo microbiological studies
(2018-01-01)
Galleria mellonella is a well-accepted insect model for the study of pathogen-host interactions and antimicrobial compounds. The main advantages of this model include the low cost of maintenance, the fast life cycle, the ...
Expression of estrus modifies the gene expression profile in reproductive tissues on Day 19 of gestation in beef cows
(Elsevier B. V., 2015-10-14)
The aim of this study was to test the effect of expression of estrus at artificial insemination (AI) on endometrium, conceptus, and CL gene expression of beef cows. Thirty-six multiparous nonlactating Nelore cows were ...
Geometrical features for premature ventricular contraction recognition with analytic hierarchy process based machine learning algorithms selection
(2019-02-01)
Background and Objective: Premature ventricular contraction is associated to the risk of coronary heart disease, and its diagnosis depends on a long time heart monitoring. For this purpose, monitoring through Holter devices ...
