Transmissibility of Mycobacterium pinnipedii in a murine model
(Frontiers Media, 2024-03)The causative agent of tuberculosis in pinnipeds is Mycobacterium pinnipedii, a member of the Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex (MTC). The natural hosts are pinnipeds; however, other non-marine mammals, including humans, ... -
Evasion of maternal antibody protection by an IBDV Argentine variant
(Elsevier, 2024-03)Infectious bursal disease (IBD) is a viral disease that affects the ability of chickens to produce humoral immune responses. One way to prevent the disease is the passage of maternally derived antibodies (MDA) from dams ... -
Live attenuated Mycobacterium bovis strains combined with the encapsulated H65 antigen as a vaccine strategy against bovine tuberculosis in a mouse model
(Elsevier, 2024-04)Mycobacterium bovis is an etiological agent of bovine tuberculosis (bTB) that also infects other mammals, including humans. The lack of an effective vaccine for the control of bTB highlights the need for developing new ... -
Unveiling the defensive role of Snakin‑3, a member of the subfamily III of Snakin/GASA peptides in potatoes
(Springer, 2024-02)Snakin/GASA proteins share 12 cysteines in conserved positions in the C-terminal region. Most of them were involved in different aspects of plant growth and development, while a small number of these peptides were reported ... -
Xylanase production by cellulomonas phragmiteti using lignocellulosic waste materials
(MDPI, 2024-02)Lignocellulosic biomass holds promise as a renewable feedstock for various applications, but its efficient conversion requires cost-effective degradation strategies. The main objective of this study was to investigate the ... -
Phylodynamic analysis of foot-and-mouth disease virus evolution in Mar Chiquita, Argentina
(Springer, 2024-05)Foot-and-mouth disease is a highly contagious disease affecting cloven-hoofed animals, resulting in considerable economic losses. Its causal agent is foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV), a picornavirus. Due to its error-prone ... -
Decreased immune response in undernourished rats after air pollution exposure
(Elsevier, 2024-04)Children are highly vulnerable subpopulation to malnutrition and air pollution. We investigate, in a rat nutritional growth retardation (NGR) model, the impact of Residual Oil Fly Ash (ROFA) on the lung immune response ... -
Tuberculosis in wild pigs from Argentina
(Springer, 2024)Mycobacterium bovis, a member of the Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex (MTC) and non-tuberculous Mycobacteria (NTM), may infect wild and domestic mammals, including humans. Although cattle are the main hosts and spreaders ... -
Coinfection of cotton plants with cotton leafroll dwarf virus atypical and a novel cotton begomovirus
(Wiley, 2024-05)Cotton is a commercial crop of global importance whose versatile fibre is widely used in the textile industry. Cotton is vulnerable to infectious pathogens, including viruses, that are a major threat to cotton production. ... -
TuMV infection alters the regulation of miR168/AGO1 and miR403/AGO2 systems in Arabidopsis
(Springer, 2024)Plant argonaute (AGO) proteins—chiefly AGO1 and 2—restrict viral infections. AGO1/2 also participate in developmental processes and are tightly regulated by microRNAs. Researchers have conducted extensive studies on the ... -
Unheard voices speak up : the Arabidopsis community and the representation of researchers from the Global South
(Oxford University Press, 2024-04)In June 2023, the Arabidopsis community met in Makuhari, Chiba, Japan, for the 33rd International Conference in Arabidopsis Research (ICAR). The meeting, at which more than 1200 researchers gathered, spanned the course of ... -
Assessing the impact of various tuberculin PPD brands on bovine tuberculosis diagnosis
(Springer Nature, 2024-03)Although several brands of tuberculin purified protein derivatives (PPDs) are available for diagnosing bovine tuberculosis (bTB), comparative studies to determine their diagnostic accuracy are infrequent. In Ecuador we ... -
Assessing small RNA profles in potato diploid hybrid and its resynthesized allopolyploid reveals conserved abundance with distinct genomic distribution
(Springer, 2024-04)Allopolyploidy, a complex process involving interspecific hybridization and whole genome duplication, significantly impacts plant evolution, leading to the emergence of novel phenotypes. Polyploids often present phenotypic ... -
Research Note : Characterization and phylodynamic analysis of new infectious bursal disease virus variants circulating in Argentina
(Elsevier, 2024-06)Infectious Bursal Disease is a highly contagious disease that affects young chickens and leads to significant economic losses. Its causal agent is a double-stranded RNA virus that, due to its high error rate during the ... -
Exploring the cellulolytic activity of environmental mycobacteria
(Elsevier, 2024-07)Although studies on non-tuberculous mycobacteria have increased in recent years because they cause a considerable proportion of infections, their cellulolytic system is still poorly studied. This study presents a ... -
ICTV virus taxonomy profile : Spinareoviridae 2022
(Microbiology Society, 2022-11)Spinareoviridae is a large family of icosahedral viruses that are usually regarded as non-enveloped with segmented (9–12 linear segments) dsRNA genomes of 23–29 kbp. Spinareovirids have a broad host range, infecting animals, ... -
Genome-wide diversity in lowland and highland maize landraces from southern South America: population genetics insights to assist conservation
(BioRxiv, 2024-02)Maize (Zea mays ssp. mays L.) landraces are traditional American crops with high genetic variability that conform a source of original alleles for conventional maize breeding. Northern Argentina, one the southernmost regions ... -
Reference gene selection for gene expression studies using RT-qPCR in virus-infected planthoppers
(BioMed Central, 2011-12)Background: Planthoppers not only severely affect crops by causing mechanical damage when feeding but are also vectors of several plant virus species. The analysis of gene expression in persistently infected planthoppers ... -
Baculovirus vectors induce the production of interferons in swine : their potential in the development of antiviral strategies
(MDPI, 2021-11)The huge variety of viruses affecting swine represents a global threat. Since vaccines against highly contagious viruses last several days to induce protective immune responses, antiviral strategies for rapid control of ... -
Discoidin domain receptor 1 regulates ErbB2/ErbB3 signaling in mammary epithelial cells
(Wiley, 2022-11)The ErbB2 receptor tyrosine kinase plays a key role in mammary gland development. It forms large clusters which serve as signaling platforms for integration of extracellular information. The discoidin domain receptor (DDR) ...
