1998 article

Understanding immunology in disease development and control

Qureshi, M. A., Hussain, I., & Heggen, C. L. (1998, August). POULTRY SCIENCE, Vol. 77, pp. 1126–1129.

By: M. Qureshi n, I. Hussain n & C. Heggen n

author keywords: immunosurveillance; cytokines; immunomodulation
MeSH headings : Animals; Antibody Formation; Chickens; Communicable Disease Control; Communicable Diseases / immunology; Communicable Diseases / veterinary; Immunity, Cellular; Immunocompetence; Immunologic Surveillance; Poultry; Poultry Diseases / immunology; Poultry Diseases / prevention & control
TL;DR: The integrity of the immune system and its functional modulation by factors such as genetics, nutrition, and prophylactic approaches continue to be an important focus of attention in current poultry research and production efforts. (via Semantic Scholar)

1998 journal article

The expression and regulation of inducible nitric oxide synthase gene differ in macrophages from chickens of different genetic background

VETERINARY IMMUNOLOGY AND IMMUNOPATHOLOGY, 61(2-4), 317–329.

By: I. Hussain n & M. Qureshi n

author keywords: macrophages; chickens; genetic lines; iNOS; gene regulation; transcription
MeSH headings : Animals; Cells, Cultured; Chickens / genetics; Chickens / immunology; Chickens / metabolism; Gene Expression Regulation, Enzymologic; Lipopolysaccharides / pharmacology; Macrophages / enzymology; Macrophages / immunology; Nitric Oxide Synthase / genetics; Nitric Oxide Synthase Type II; RNA, Messenger / genetics; RNA, Messenger / metabolism; Species Specificity
TL;DR: These studies suggest that the previously reported genetically-based difference in iNOS mRNA expression further translates into differences iniNOS enzyme activity, and that the iN OS gene in chickens is transcriptionally regulated. (via Semantic Scholar)

1998 journal article

Alterations in the lymphocytic and mononuclear phagocytic systems of turkey poults associated with exposure to poult enteritis and mortality syndrome

AVIAN DISEASES, 42(4), 711–720.

By: C. Heggen, M. Qureshi*, F. Edens*, H. Barnes* & G. Havenstein*

author keywords: poult enteritis and mortality syndrome; macrophage; turkey; Escherichia coli; lymphocytes
TL;DR: In conclusion, immune system dysfunction in PEMS is associated with impaired mononuclear phagocytic system function and alterations in lymphocyte populations. (via Semantic Scholar)

VETERINARY PARASITOLOGY, 74(2-4), 133–142.

By: G. Baneth *, E. Breitschwerdt n , B. Hegarty n, B. Pappalardo n & J. Ryan  n

author keywords: dog; Ehrlichia canis; Bartonella vinsonii; Babesia canis; Babesia gibsoni; Rickettsia conorii; Israel
MeSH headings : Animals; Animals, Domestic / microbiology; Animals, Domestic / parasitology; Antibodies, Bacterial / blood; Antibodies, Bacterial / immunology; Antibodies, Protozoan / blood; Antibodies, Protozoan / immunology; Babesia / immunology; Bacterial Infections / blood; Bacterial Infections / epidemiology; Bacterial Infections / veterinary; Bartonella / immunology; Blotting, Western / veterinary; Borrelia burgdorferi Group / immunology; Case-Control Studies; Data Collection; Dog Diseases / blood; Dog Diseases / epidemiology; Dogs; Ehrlichia / immunology; Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay / veterinary; Female; Fluorescent Antibody Technique, Indirect / veterinary; Israel / epidemiology; Male; Prevalence; Protozoan Infections, Animal / blood; Protozoan Infections, Animal / epidemiology; Rickettsia / immunology; Tick-Borne Diseases / blood; Tick-Borne Diseases / epidemiology; Tick-Borne Diseases / veterinary; Ticks
TL;DR: Western blot analysis for antibodies reactive to B. burgdorferi identified genus-specific antiflagellin antibodies indicating that dogs in Israel are exposed to a Borrelia species, indicating that Lyme borreliosis in people in Israel is likely. (via Semantic Scholar)

1998 journal article

Feline immunodeficiency virus is shed in semen from experimentally and naturally infected cats

AIDS RESEARCH AND HUMAN RETROVIRUSES, 14(12), 1087–1092.

By: H. Jordan*, J. Howard*, M. Barr, S. Kennedy-Stoskopf*, J. Levy* & W. Tompkins*

MeSH headings : Animals; Cats; Cell Line; Feline Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome / virology; Immunodeficiency Virus, Feline / isolation & purification; Male; Semen / virology; Virus Shedding
TL;DR: Electroejaculates from four specific-pathogen-free males infected with another laboratory strain, FIV-Petaluma, and eight random source males with naturally acquired infections confirm that FIV shedding in semen is not restricted to a specific virus isolate, and swim-up sperm from Fiv- infected cats may be infectious in vitro.

1998 article

Elevated interleukin-10-to-interleukin-12 ratio in feline immunodeficiency virus-infected cats predicts loss of type 1 immunity to Toxoplasma gondii

Levy, J. K., Ritchey, J. W., Rottman, J. B., Davidson, M. G., Liang, Y. H., Jordan, H. L., … Tompkins, M. B. (1998, August). JOURNAL OF INFECTIOUS DISEASES, Vol. 178, pp. 503–511.

By: J. Levy n, J. Ritchey n, J. Rottman  n, M. Davidson n, Y. Liang n, H. Jordan n, W. Tompkins n, M. Tompkins n

MeSH headings : Animals; Bronchi / immunology; Cats; Cytokines / biosynthesis; Cytokines / genetics; Disease Models, Animal; Immunity; Immunodeficiency Virus, Feline / immunology; Interleukin-10 / biosynthesis; Interleukin-10 / genetics; Interleukin-10 / immunology; Interleukin-12 / biosynthesis; Interleukin-12 / genetics; Interleukin-12 / immunology; Lentivirus Infections / complications; Lentivirus Infections / immunology; Lymph Nodes / immunology; Male; RNA, Messenger; Toxoplasmosis / complications; Toxoplasmosis / immunology
TL;DR: Results indicate that FIV immunodeficiency may derive from a failure to generate an IL-12-dependent type 1 response and that an elevated level of IL-10 mRNA expression is a predictor of lentivirus immunodficiency. (via Semantic Scholar)
