This study assessed the immunoprotective effect in lambs of a native excreted/secreted 15-kDa protein and two synthesised S28 peptides derived from the infective transitory larvae (xL3) and adult stages (AS) of Haemonchus contortus. Twenty-two Pelibu...
Heartworm disease caused by Dirofilaria immitis is a vector-borne zoonotic disease responsible for the infection of mainly domestic dogs and cats, or these are those for which the most data are known. Humans are an accidental host where a benign, asy...
Background: Effective immunotherapeutic agents for use in cats are needed to aid in the management of intractable viral diseases, including feline infectious peritonitis (FIP) infection. The objectives of this study were to compare two different immu...
Many picornaviruses require the myristoylation of capsid proteins for viral replication. Myristoylation is a site-specific lipidation to the N-terminal G residue of viral proteins, which is catalyzed by the ubiquitous eukaryotic enzyme N-myristoyltra...
Colpodella species are free-living protists phylogenetically related to apicomplexans. Colpodella sp. have been detected in human and animal tissues, as well as in ticks and biting flies. The trophozoite and cyst stages of Colpodella species can be d...
