Heterologous vaccine immunogenicity, efficacy, and immune correlates of protection of a modified-live virus porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus vaccine
Frontiers in Microbiology, 13.
Contributors: E. Crisci n
author keywords: porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV); correlates of protection (CoP); vaccination; swine; immunity; pig
TL;DR:
Overall, the Prevacent elicited various degrees of efficacy and immunogenicity against four heterologous and phylogenetically distant strains of PRRSV-2, and correlation analyses revealed that the (non-PRRSV strain-specific) serum IgG levels and the PRRSv strain- specific CD4 T-cell response were the best immune correlates of protection.

Effects of dietary zinc on performance and immune response of growing pigs inoculated with porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus and mycoplasma hyopneumoniae
ASIAN-AUSTRALASIAN JOURNAL OF ANIMAL SCIENCES, 17(10), 1438–1446.
author keywords: pigs; PRRSv; zinc; growth; immune response
TL;DR:
The data suggest that PRRSv and M. hyopneumoniae act to produce some performance deficits and the influence of Zn supplementation of nursery age pigs does not have clear effect in grower pigs affected with disease.

Cloning of pig prostaglandin F-2 alpha(FP) receptor cDNA and expression of its mRNA in the corpora lutea
Reproduction (Cambridge, England), 125(1), 53–64.

Expression and localization of vascular endothelial growth factor and its receptors in pig corpora lutea during the oestrous cycle
Reproduction (Cambridge, England), 126(3), 393–405.
MeSH headings : Animals; Blotting, Northern / methods; Corpus Luteum / chemistry; Corpus Luteum / physiology; Estrous Cycle / physiology; Female; Follicular Phase / physiology; In Situ Hybridization / methods; Luteal Phase / physiology; RNA, Messenger / analysis; Receptors, Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor / genetics; Swine / physiology; Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor A / genetics; Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor Receptor-1 / genetics; Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor Receptor-2 / genetics
TL;DR:
Data indicate that the VEGF system may be involved in the regulation of luteal vasculature throughout the lifespan of the corpus luteum, and variations in the expression of V EGFR-1 and VEGFR-2 mRNAs indicate that differential regulation of expression of the V EGF receptors may play a role in the control of VEGf-mediated vascular growth at different phases of development and maturation of the pig corpus lutenum.

TL;DR:
Zinc supplemented at 50 or 150 ppm resulted in an enhanced febrile response in pigs subjected to iatrogenic endotoxemia, but did not affect pig performance or immune response measurements.

TL;DR:
The effects of the physical form of feed on water disappearance and the effects of buffered water on proximal stomach pH in swine were determined in two experiments and the proximal pH of the stomach was increased by adding buffers to the water supply.

TL;DR:
The observation of tonsillar involvement was consistent with former observations of S. choleraesuis and S. typhimurium infections in swine and supports a role for the tonsil in all porcine salmonella infections.

TL;DR:
It was evident that high affinity PGE receptors are sustained on porcine luteal cells during the estrous cycle and early pregnancy; however, the role of the P GE receptors in maternal recognition of pregnancy remains speculative.

Effects of LH, prostaglandin E-2, 8-bromo-cyclic AMP and forskolin on progesterone secretion by pig luteal cells
Journal of Reproduction & Fertility, 113(1), 83–89.
MeSH headings : 8-Bromo Cyclic Adenosine Monophosphate / pharmacology; Animals; Cell Size / drug effects; Cells, Cultured; Colforsin / pharmacology; Corpus Luteum / cytology; Corpus Luteum / drug effects; Corpus Luteum / metabolism; Cyclic AMP / metabolism; Dinoprostone / pharmacology; Dose-Response Relationship, Drug; Estrus / metabolism; Female; Luteinizing Hormone / pharmacology; Pregnancy; Progesterone / metabolism; Stimulation, Chemical; Swine
TL;DR:
Data show that pregnancy status does not alter luteal cell response to the aforementioned secretagogues, however, regulation of progesterone secretion differs between small and large lutesal cells, and the age of the corpora lutea, suggesting it is unlikely that the stimulatory actions of PGE 2 involve increased cAMP production in pig large luteAL cells.

ESTRADIOL FEEDBACK INHIBITION OF LUTEINIZING-HORMONE CONCENTRATIONS IN THE ANESTROUS SOW
JOURNAL OF ANIMAL SCIENCE, 68(4), 1077–1086.

TL;DR:
The results suggest that the hypothalamo-hypophyseal axis is more sensitive to the negative feedback effects of E2 in anestrous sows than in cyclic sows, and chronic E2 treatment reduces pituitary responsiveness to GnRH to a greater extent in anergetic sows.
