Differential responses in placenta and fetal thymus at 12 days post infection elucidate mechanisms of viral level and fetal compromise following PRRSV2 infection
Download2020-01-01
Van Goor, Angelica, Pasternak, Alex, Walker, Kristen, Hong, Linjun, Malgarin, Carolina, MacPhee, Daniel J., Harding, John C. S., Lunney, Joan K.
Background:A pregnant gilt infected with porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) can transmit the virus to her fetuses across the maternal-fetal-interface resulting in varying disease outcomes. However,the mechanisms leading to variation in fetal outcome in response to PRRSV...

A characterization of inflammatory and structural markers within the rumen epithelium during grain-induced ruminal acidosis in lactating dairy cattle
Download2012
Steele, Michael A., Plaizier, Jan C., AlZahal, Ousama, Dionissopoulos, Louis, McBride, Brian W.
The objective of this study was to characterize the mRNA and protein expression of inflammatory and structural genes in the rumen epithelium during grain-induced ruminal acidosis in lactating dairy cattle. A total of 16 rumen-fistulated, lactating Holstein dairy cattle (618±35 kg of body weight,...

A microsatellite polymorphism in the gamma interferon gene is associated with resistance to gastrointestinal nematodes in a naturally-parasitized population of Soay sheep
Download2001
Pemberton, J. M., Coltman, D. W., Pilkington, J. G., Wilson, K., Stear, M. J.
Abstract: Free-living Soay sheep (Ovis aries) on the island of Hirta, St Kilda, Scotland, are naturally parasitized bq gastrointestinal nematodes, predominantly Teladorsagia circumcincta. In this paper we show that reduced faecal egg counts (FEC) are associated with an allele at a microsatellite...

Alterations of innate immunity reactants in transition dairy cows before clinical signs of lameness
Download2015
Dervishi, Elda, Hailemariam, Dagnachew, Zhang, Guanshi, Goldansaz, Seyed A., Deng, Qilan, Dunn, Suzanna M., Ametaj, Burim N.
The objectives of this study were to evaluate metabolic and innate immunity alterations in the blood of transition dairy cows before, during, and after diagnosis of lameness during periparturient period. Blood samples were collected from the coccygeal vain once per week before morning feeding...

Altered ganglioside metabolism in inflammatory bowel disease and the impact of dietary ganglioside intake
DownloadFall 2014
Gangliosides are integral to the structure and function of the plasma membrane. Ganglioside composition of the small intestinal brush border membrane and apical surface of the colon influence numerous cell processes including microbial attachment, cell division, differentiation, and signaling....

Amino Acid Utilization in Seeds of Loblolly Pine during Germination and Early Seedling Growth: I. Arginine and Arginase Activity
Download1997
Abstract: The mobilization and utilization of the major storage proteins in loblolly pine (Pinus taeda L.) seeds following imbibition were investigated. Most of the seed protein reserves were contained within the megagametophyte. Breakdown of these proteins occurred primarily following radicle...
