Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleFunctional Characterization of Neutrophils from Nine-Banded Armadillos (Dasypus novemcicntus; Edentata, Dasypodidae) Infected with MicrofilariaeMarcela López-Hurtado, Fernando M. Guerra-InfanteThe neutrophils from uninfected armadillos have adequate phagocytic and bacteriocidal activity, but diminished chemotactic activity. However, endocytic activity from armadillo neutrophils infected with bacteria, parasites or viruses is unknown. This report shows that neutrophils from armadillos infected with microfilariae displayed deficiencies in their bacteriocidal mechanisms and TNF-like production, but not in their endocytic capacity. …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 30 Jun 2006 · 6,662 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleQuercetin Promotes the Expression of Genes Involved in Phagocytosis in Bovine NeutrophilsSuphakit Srikok, Sukij Nambut, Kanruethai Wongsawan, Phongsakorn ChuammitriThis study was conducted to explore the effect of Quercetin (QH) on phagocytosis of bovine neutrophils. Neutrophils were isolated from fifteen multiparous Holstein cows. We in vitro treated neutrophils with PBS or 50 µM of Quercetin (QH) or Cytochalasin B (CytB), as phagocytosis inhibitor, prior to monitoring phagocytosis of Escherichia coli by flow cytometry and microscopic examination. Additionally, the expressions … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 2 · 2 Aug 2017 · 8,124 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsDEVELOPMENT OF THE INNATE IMMUNE RESPONSE AND INFLUENCE OF COLOSTRUM SUCKLING IN CALVESViviani Gomes, Camila Costa Baccili, Vinicius Alvim Passos Baldacim et al.Bovine colostrum contains immune factors, like leukocytes and cytokines that are absorbed by the intestinal mucosa of the neonate, however, not much is known about the function of some of these components in the active immune response of calves. The aim of this study was to determine the influence of colostrum intake and development of the innate immune response of … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 2 · 14 Apr 2014 · 7,478 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsErythropoietin-Like Effects of Dihydroartemisinin in Wistar Albino RatsUtoh-Nedosa Uchechukwu Anastasia, Nedosa Kenechi Stanislaus, Onyedibe Ikenna KennethArtemisinin drugs were active during the intra-erythrocytic stage of malaria parasite infection. The activity of artemisinin and synthetic endoperoxides was related to their interaction with heme. The electrophillic intermediate formed from artemisinin in the presence of heme alkylates the protein portion of hemoglobin preferentially to the heme portion. Problem statement: Since there might be an interaction between artemisinin and the … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 9 Dec 2011 · 7,787 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Selenium Supplementation on Secretion of Reproductive Hormones and Immune Response to Trichostrongylidae Nematodes Infestation in Zulu Sheep Ewes During Oestrous CycleNoxolo Winile Nkunzi, Fhulufhelo V Ramukhithi, Ismaila Muritala et al.The growing resistance of nematodes to anthelmintics has prompted research into alternative control strategies, including nutritional supplementation with micronutrients such as Selenium (Se). Research focusing on the use of mineral supplementation would not only contribute to improvement of animal performance but also to acquaint stakeholders with alternative immune boosting strategies in livestock. Thus, this research assessed how immune response and … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 21, Issue 3 · 27 Oct 2026 · 51 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEnhanced Immunity of Hybrid Grouper (Epinephelus sp.) Against Viral Nervous Necrosis Using a Recombinant Protein Nanovaccine from Chlorella VulgarisUun Yanuhar, Herly Evanuarini, Heru Suryanto et al.Hybrid Grouper (Epinephelus sp.) is an important export commodity in marine aquaculture, yet Viral Nervous Necrosis (VNN) remains a major threat. Nanovaccines are a type of vaccine developed by combining vaccine ingredients with silver nanoparticles and recombinant protein from Chlorella vulgaris. These formulations are designed to effectively boost the body's immune system response to prevent disease infection and destroy pathogenic … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 25, Issue 3 · 22 Nov 2025 · 2,156 accessesView PDFCite
Case ReportOpen accessIn the abstractHistopathology of Microbially Induced Corrosion and Cluster Failure of Moderately Rough Surface Oral Implants in a Resident Bone MicrobiotaStephen Nelson, Helen Hu et al.This case report presents as a maxillary "cluster-failure", where six moderately rough-surface oral implants (1-2 microns) were installed to support a full-arch hybrid bridge. Understanding cluster failures requires the acknowledgment of biofilm science that recognizes the persistence of bacterial infection in bone following extraction and the need to bioremediate the bone-bed, by surgical debridement, before implant installation. The patient, a … …Current Research in Dentistry, Vol. 15, Issue 1 · 28 Feb 2024 · 8,486 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHematological and Biochemical Analysis of Asymptomatic Fascioliasis of Bali Cattle (Bos Javanicus)Maskur, Adji Santoso Drajat, Sulaiman Ngongu Depamede et al.The research was to examine the hematological characteristic of fascioliasis in Bali cattle in year-round irrigated rice fields in tropical areas. Fifty cattle raised in rice field areas were examined by hematology, coproscopy, physiology, and liver function tests. The results showed that 50 cattle had heartbeat, respiratory and rectal temperature in normal standard, but, 41 (82%) out of 50 cattle … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 17, Issue 3 · 4 Aug 2022 · 6,207 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHematological Changes during Chronic Toxoplasma gondii Infection in Pregnant Women in Makkah, Saudi ArabiaKhalil MohamedToxoplasma gondii is an obligate parasite and intracellular protozoans infect all kinds of animals and humans. The aim of the present study was to determine whether there was any effect on complete blood count parameters in the blood of pregnant women. A case-control study was performed in pregnant women divided into two groups according to their age: group one (17-27 … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 16, Issue 2 · 9 Apr 2020 · 7,179 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInvolvement of the α/β Isoform of p38 MAP Kinase in Chemotactic Responses of Human Eosinophils to Eotaxin (CCL11) and RANTES (CCL5)Anwar M Hasan, Gordon DentEosinophils are the principal effector cells for allergic inflammation in a variety of diseases, in which they contribute to tissue damage and remodelling processes via the secretion of cytotoxic granular proteins and cytokines. The intracellular mechanisms that control the activation, recruitment and survival of eosinophils are fundamental in understanding these disease processes. Phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) has been shown previously to … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 13, Issue 4 · 26 Oct 2017 · 7,946 accessesView PDFCite
