Journal ArticleDOI
Field studies and cost-effectiveness analysis of vaccination with Gavac against the cattle tick Boophilus microplus.
J. de la Fuente,Manuel Rodríguez,M. Redondo,Carlos Montero,Jose C. Garcia-Garcia,Lídice Méndez,E. Serrano,Monica Valdes,Antonio Enríquez,Mario Canales,E. Ramos,Oscar Boué,Héctor Machado,Ricardo Lleonart,C. A. de Armas,S. Rey,Juan Lucena Rodríguez,M. Artiles,Luis F. García +18 more
TL;DR: The results clearly demonstrate the advantage of vaccination and support the application of Gavac for tick control and show a 60% reduction in the number acaricide treatments, together with the control of tick infestations and transmission of babesiosis.
Journal ArticleDOI
High level expression of the B. microplus Bm86 antigen in the yeast Pichia pastoris forming highly immunogenic particles for cattle.
Manuel Rodríguez,R. Rubiera,Manuel Penichet,Raquel Montesinos,José A. Cremata,Viviana Falcón,Giselle Sánchez,Ricardo Bringas,Carlos Cordoves,Mario Valdés,Ricardo Lleonart,Herrera Martinez Luis S,José de la Fuente +12 more
TL;DR: The increased expression of the Bm86 antigen from the cattle tick Boophilus microplus in the methylotrophic yeast Pichia pastoris permits the obtainment in a high yield of the tick Bm 86 antigen, in a glycosylated and particulated form.
Journal ArticleDOI
Vaccination against ticks (boophilus spp.) : the experience with the bm86-based vaccine gavac
J. de la Fuente,M. Rodríguez,C Montero,M. Redondo,Jose C. Garcia-Garcia,Lídice Méndez,E. Serrano,Monica Valdes,Antonio Enríquez,Mario Canales,E. Ramos,Oscar Boué,H. Machado,Ricardo Lleonart +13 more
TL;DR: The results clearly demonstrate the advantage of vaccination and support the application of Gavac for the control of Boophilus spp.
Journal ArticleDOI
Control of Boophilus microplus populations in grazing cattle vaccinated with a recombinant Bm86 antigen preparation
Manuel Rodríguez,Manuel Penichet,A.E. Mouris,Violeta Labarta,L. Lorenzo Luaces,R. Rubiera,Carlos Cordoves,P.A. Sánchez,E. Ramos,Alejandro Soto,Mario Canales,D. Palenzuela,Ada Triguero,Ricardo Lleonart,L Herrera,J. de la Fuente +15 more
TL;DR: It is shown that, under field conditions in grazing cattle, the vaccine is able to control B. microplus populations and it was shown to induce a protective response in vaccinated animals under controlled conditions.
Journal Article
Growth enhancement in transgenic tilapia by ectopic expression of tilapia growth hormone.
Rut Martínez,Mario Pablo Estrada,Jorge Berlanga,Isabel Guillén,O Hernández,E. Cabrera,Rafael Pimentel,Reynold Morales,Fidel Herrera,A. Morales,J.C. Piña,Z. Abad,Víctor Hugo Sánchez,P. Melamed,Ricardo Lleonart,J. de la Fuente +15 more
TL;DR: Results showed that low-level ectopic expression of tiGH resulted in a growth acceleration in transgenic tilapia, indicating that Tilapia GH gene transfer is an alternative for growth Acceleration intilapia.
