Canine Cancer Screening Via Ultraviolet Absorbance And Fluorescence Spectroscopy Of Serum Proteins
(Optical Society of America, 2007-01-01)A cost-effective optical cancer screening and monitoring technique was demonstrated in a pilot study of canine serum samples and was patented for commercialization. Compared to conventional blood chemistry analysis methods, ... -
Canine Snake-Eye Myelopathy: Clinical, Magnetic Resonance Imaging, and Pathologic Findings in Four Cases
(Frontiers, 2019-07-05)Intramedullary signal change (ISC) is a non-specific finding that is frequently observed on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) examinations of the canine spinal cord. ISC can represent a variety of primary pathological ... -
Capsular Polysaccharide Interferes with Biofilm Formation by Pasteurella multocida Serogroup A
(American Society for Microbiology, 2017-11)Pasteurella multocida is an important multihost animal and zoonotic pathogen that is capable of causing respiratory and multisystemic diseases, bacteremia, and bite wound infections. The glycosaminoglycan capsule of P. ... -
Case Report Chronic Microsporidial Enteritis in a Missionary from Mozambique
(Amer Soc Trop Med & Hygiene, 2010-11-01) -
Caspase-11 Modulates Inflammation and Attenuates Toxoplasma gondii Pathogenesis
(Hindawi Publishing Corp, 2016-06-09)Toxoplasma gondii is an obligate intracellular parasite that is the etiologic agent responsible for toxoplasmosis. Infection with T. gondii results in activation of nucleotide binding domain and leucine rich repeat containing ... -
Catalytic Nanoceria Are Preferentially Retained in the Rat Retina and Are Not Cytotoxic after Intravitreal Injection
(PLOS, 2013-03-11)Cerium oxide nanoparticles (nanoceria) possess catalytic and regenerative radical scavenging activities. The ability of nanoceria to maintain cellular redox balance makes them ideal candidates for treatment of retinal ... -
Cell-free protein synthesis of norovirus virus-like particles
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2017-05-25)Norovirus vaccine development largely depends on recombinant virus-like-particles (VLPs). Norovirus VLPs have been produced in several cell-based expression systems with long production times. Here we report, for the first ... -
Changes in Gene Expression and Cellular Architecture in an Ovarian Cancer Progression Model
(PLOS, 2011-03-03)Background Ovarian cancer is the fifth leading cause of cancer deaths among women. Early stage disease often remains undetected due the lack of symptoms and reliable biomarkers. The identification of early genetic changes ... -
Characterization of NLRP12 during the Development of Allergic Airway Disease in Mice
(PLOS, 2012-01-23) -
Characterization of NLRP12 during the In Vivo Host Immune Response to Klebsiella pneumoniae and Mycobacterium tuberculosis
(PLOS, 2013-04-05)The majority of nucleotide binding domain leucine rich repeats-containing (NLR) family members has yet to be functionally characterized. Of the described NLRs, most are considered to be proinflammatory and facilitate IL-1β ... -
Characterization of recombinant B. abortus strain RB51SOD toward understanding the uncorrelated innate and adaptive immune responses induced by RB51SOD compared to its parent vaccine strain RB51
(Frontiers, 2011-11-25)Brucella abortus is a Gram-negative, facultative intracellular pathogen for several mammals, including humans. Live attenuated B. abortus strain RB51 is currently the official vaccine used against bovine brucellosis in the ... -
Characterization of temperature-sensitive strains of Neospora caninum in mice
(American Society of Parasitology, 1999-02)Temperature-sensitive (ts) strains of the Neospora caninum tachyzoites were selected by chemical mutagenesis and selection for growth at 32 C. Three ts strains and the parental, N. caninum wild-type strain, NC-1, were ... -
Chemical modification of L-glutamine to alpha-amino glutarimide on autoclaving facilitates Agrobacterium infection of host and non-host plants: A new use of a known compound
(2011-05-31)Background Accidental autoclaving of L-glutamine was found to facilitate the Agrobacterium infection of a non host plant like tea in an earlier study. In the present communication, we elucidate the structural changes in ... -
Chemokines and Chemokine Receptors in the Development of Lupus Nephritis
(Hindawi, 2016-06-14)Lupus nephritis (LN) is a major cause of morbidity and mortality in the patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), an autoimmune disease with damage to multiple organs. Leukocyte recruitment into the inflamed kidney ... -
Chimeric infectious DNA clones, chimeric porcine circoviruses and uses thereof
(United States Patent and Trademark Office, 2018-02-13)The present invention relates to infectious DNA clones, infectious chimeric DNA clones of porcine circovirus (PCV), vaccines and means of protecting pigs against viral infection or postweaning multisystemic wasting syndrome ... -
Chronic Cerebral Hypoperfusion Induces Alterations of Matrix Metalloproteinase-9 and Angiopoietin-2 Levels in the Rat Hippocampus
(2018-08)Angiogenic factors contribute to cerebral angiogenesis following cerebral hypoperfusion, and understanding these temporal changes is essential to developing effective treatments. The present study examined temporal alterations ... -
Co-Infection Patterns in Individual Ixodes scapularis Ticks Reveal Associations between Viral, Eukaryotic and Bacterial Microorganisms
(MDPI, 2018-07-22)Ixodes scapularis ticks harbor a variety of microorganisms, including eukaryotes, bacteria and viruses. Some of these can be transmitted to and cause disease in humans and other vertebrates. Others are not pathogenic, but ... -
A commercial porcine circovirus (PCV) type 2a-based vaccine reduces PCV2d viremia and shedding and prevents PCV2d transmission to naive pigs under experimental conditions
(2017-01-05)Porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2) vaccination has been effective in protecting pigs from clinical disease and today is used extensively. Recent studies in vaccinated populations indicate a major PCV2 genotype shift from the ... -
Comparable growth of Tritrichomonas mobilensis in two commercially available culture media
(American Society of Parasitology, 2002-10)The investigation reported herein was undertaken to determine which medium is more practical for the axenic laboratory culture of trichomonads. The growth of Tritrichomonas mobilensis was monitored in 2 different types of ...
