Evaluation of suitable reference genes for gene expression studies in porcine alveolar macrophages in response to LPS and LTA

TL;DR: The geometric mean of the SDHA, YWHAZ and RPL4 seemed to be the most appropriate combination of HKGs for accurate normalization of gene expression data in porcine AMs without knowing the type of bacterial pathogenic status of the animals.
Journal ArticleDOI
Characterization of Erysipelothrix rhusiopathiae isolates from poultry, pigs, emus, the poultry red mite and other animals.

TL;DR: Similarities in PFGE banding patterns between isolates from chickens and mites supported the hypothesis that D. gallinae may act as a reservoir and vector for E. rhusiopathiae and is appropriate to investigate the epidemiology of poultry erysipelas.
Journal ArticleDOI
Transmission of Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae in pigs under field-like conditions: emphasis on tonsillar colonisation and passively acquired colostral antibodies
TL;DR: The cumulative proportion of pigs carrying A. pleuropneumoniae in their tonsils increased significantly between the age of 4-12 weeks, which corresponded to the age at which the proportion of pig with detectable levels of colostral antibodies to the different serotypes of A. Pleurop pneumoniae was declining.

TL;DR: This study represents a clear example of how FMD and other pathogenic disease vaccines can be prepared by a simple and efficient bacteriophage route.

Potential use of an unencapsulated and aromatic amino acid-auxotrophic Streptococcus suis mutant as a live attenuated vaccine in swine.
Nahuel Fittipaldi,Josée Harel,Benoit D’Amours,Sonia Lacouture,Marylène Kobisch,Marcelo Gottschalk +5 more
TL;DR: A non-virulent, aromatic amino acid-auxotrophic and unencapsulated mutant strain of S. suis was generated in this study and a preliminary evaluation of its protective capacities was conducted in swine and it may be useful to further evaluate strain BD101 as a vaccine candidate.
