Identification of candidate genes associated with host-seeking behavior in the parasitoid wasp Diachasmimorpha longicaudata
(BioMed Central, 2024-02)Background: Diachasmimorpha longicaudata is a hymenopteran fruit fly endoparasitoid. Females of this species find their hosts for oviposition by using complex sensorial mechanisms in response to physical and chemical stimuli ... -
Identification of candidate genes associated with leaf senescence in cultivated sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.)
(PLOS, 2014)Cultivated sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.), an important source of edible vegetable oil, shows rapid onset of senescence, which limits production by reducing photosynthetic capacity under specific growing conditions. ... -
Identification of four novel DC-SIGN ligands on Mycobacterium bovis BCG
(Springer, 2010-09)Dendritic-cell-specific intercellular adhesion molecule-3-grabbing non-integrin (DC-SIGN; CD209) has an important role in mediating adherence of Mycobacteria species, including M. tuberculosis and M. bovis BCG to human ... -
Identification of novel vaccine candidates against cryptosporidiosis of neonatal bovines by reverse vaccinology
(Elsevier, 2018-12)The apicomplexan protozoan Cryptosporidium parvum is an important causative agent of diarrhea of neonatal bovines. Vaccination has been proposed as an advantageous strategy against cryptosporidiosis of calves since besides ... -
Identification of the Apa protein secreted by Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis as a novel fecal biomarker for Johne's disease in cattle
(Oxford University Press, 2018-08)Paratuberculosis (PTB) or Johne's disease is a chronic intestinal infection of ruminants, caused by Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis. The shedding of mycobacteria in the feces starts at the initial stages and ... -
IFNG-mediated immune responses enhance autophagy against Mycobacterium tuberculosis antigens in patients with active tuberculosis
(Taylor & Francis, 2014-11)Protective immunity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) requires IFNG. Besides, IFNG-mediated induction of autophagy suppresses survival of virulent Mtb in macrophage cell lines. We investigated the contribution of ... -
IgY-based antivenom against Bothrops alternatus: Production and neutralization efficacy
(Elsevier, 2019-05)Antivenom for the treatment of bothropic snakebite is a priority for public health institutions from Latin America. An alternative to the conventional antivenom production is based on the use of egg yolk antibodies – ... -
IgY-technology (egg yolk antibodies) in human medicine: a review of patents and clinical trials
(Elsevier, 2020-04)IgY-technology (the production and extraction of specific IgY antibodies from egg yolk) is an innovative method to produce antibodies for therapy and prophylaxis. Advantages of IgY over other antibodies comprise its ... -
IL-12 DNA Displays efficient adjuvant effects improving immunogenicity of Ag85A in DNA prime/MVA boost immunizations
(Frontiers Media, 2020-09)Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) infection is one of the leading causes of death worldwide. The Modified Vaccinia Ankara (MVA) vaccine vector expressing the mycobacterial antigen 85A (MVA85A) was demonstrated to be safe, ... -
Immune cells transferred by colostrum do not influence the immune responses to foot-and-mouth disease primary vaccination
(Elsevier, 2019-09)Little is known about the influence of maternal antibodies and immune cells transferred through colostrum on the immune responses of calves to the currently used foot-and-mouth disease (FMD) vaccines. Here we evaluated the ... -
Immune mediators of pathology in neurobrucellosis: from blood to central nervous system
(Elsevier, 2019-07)Neurobrucellosis, which is the most morbid form of brucellosis disease, presents with inflammatory signs and symptoms. Recent experimental evidence clearly indicates that deregulation of astrocytes and microglia caused by ... -
Immune receptor genes and pericentromeric transposons as targets of common epigenetic regulatory elements
(Wiley, 2018-12)Pattern recognition receptors (PRR) and nucleotide‐binding leucine‐rich repeat proteins (NLR) are major components of the plant immune system responsible for pathogen detection. To date, the transcriptional regulation of ... -
Immune Response and Partial Protection against Heterologous Foot-and-Mouth Disease Virus Induced by Dendrimer Peptides in Cattle
(2018-04)Synthetic peptides mimicking protective B- and T-cell epitopes are good candidates for safer, more effective FMD vaccines. Nevertheless, previous studies of immunization with linear peptides showed that they failed to ... -
Immune response and protection provided by live tachyzoites and native antigens from the NC-6 Argentina strain of Neospora caninum in pregnant heifers
(Elsevier, 2013-11)The aim of the present study was to compare the immunogenicity and protective efficacy of live tachyzoites and native antigen extract obtained from the NC-6 Argentina strain against vertical transmission of Neospora caninum, ... -
Immune response in calves vaccinated with type three secretion system antigens and shiga toxin 2B subunit of Escherichia coli O157:H7
(2017-01-03)Ruminants are the primary reservoir of Shiga-toxin producing Escherichia coli (STEC) O157:H7 and the main source of infection for humans. The aim of this study was to assess the immunogenic properties of a candidate vaccine ... -
Immunisation of cattle against Babesia bovis combining a multi-epitope modified vaccinia Ankara virus and a recombinant protein induce strong Th1 cell responses but fails to trigger neutralising antibodies required for protection
(Elsevier, 2019-10)Protection against the intraerythrocytic protozoan parasite Babesia bovis depends on both strong innate and adaptive immune response, this latter involving the presentation of parasite antigens to CD4+ T-lymphocytes by ... -
Immunization of pregnant cows with Shiga toxin-2 induces high levels of specific colostral antibodies and lactoferrin able to neutralize E. coli O157:H7 pathogenicity
(2018-03)E. coli O157:H7 is a foodborne pathogen responsible for bloody diarrhea, hemorrhagic colitis and hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS). The objective of the present work was to evaluate the ability of colostral IgG obtained from ... -
Immunization with Neospora caninum profilin induces limited protection and a regulatory T-cell response in mice
(2016)Profilins are actin-binding proteins that regulate the polymerization of actin filaments. In apicomplexan parasites, they are essential for invasion. Profilins also trigger the immune response of the host by activating ... -
