Influence of antibodies transferred by colostrum in the immune responses of calves to current foot-and-mouth disease vaccines
(2014-11-12)Immunity to currently used oil-adjuvanted inactivated vaccines against foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV) has been studied in detail in adult animals; however, the influence of maternally derived antibodies transferred ... -
Heterogeneity in the antibody response to foot‐and‐mouth disease primo‐vaccinated calves
(2015-06)Foot‐and‐mouth disease (FMD) vaccines are routinely used as effective control tools in large regions worldwide and to limit outbreaks during epidemics. Vaccine‐induced protection in cattle has been largely correlated with ... -
First report of isolation and molecular characterization of bubaline herpesvirus 1 (BuHV1) from Argentinean water buffaloes
(2014-11)Herpesviruses have mainly co-evolved with their hosts for millions of years. However, bovine herpesvirus 1 (BoHV1) and related ruminant alphaherpesviruses have been reported to cross the species barrier. Bubaline herpesvirus ... -
Galectin‐8 activates dendritic cells and stimulates antigen‐specific immune response elicitation
(2017-11)Galectin‐8 (Gal‐8) is a mammalian β‐galactoside‐binding lectin, endowed with proinflammatory properties. Given its capacity to enhance antigen‐specific immune responses in vivo, we investigated whether Gal‐8 was also able ... -
Prevalence and viability of group A rotavirus in dairy farm water sources
(2018-03)Aim: To analyse group A rotavirus (RVA) environmental contamination in waters used for calves' consumption and to assess viral viability in dairy farm water sources. Methods and Results: We analysed 202 samples of water ... -
Molecular characterization and cluster analysis of field isolates of avian infectious laryngotracheitis virus from Argentina
(2017-12-13)Avian infectious laryngotracheitis (ILT) is a worldwide infectious disease that causes important economic losses in the poultry industry. Although it is known that ILT virus (ILTV) is present in Argentina, there is no ... -
Novel expression of immunogenic foot-and-mouth disease virus-like particles in Nicotiana benthamiana
(2018-01)Foot-and-mouth disease (FMD) is a highly contagious disease of cloven-hoofed animals and is endemic in Africa, parts of South America and southern Asia. The causative agent, FMD virus (FMDV) is a member of the genus ... -
Evaluation of immune responses of stabilised SAT2 antigens of foot-and-mouth disease in cattle
(2017)Foot-and-mouth disease (FMD) vaccines with improved stability and less reliant on a cold-chain are needed to improve the longevity of immune responses elicited in animals. This is especially so for serotypes O and SAT2 ... -
Dendrimeric peptides can confer protection against foot-and-mouth disease virus in cattle
(2017-09)Foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV) causes a highly contagious disease in cloven-hoofed animals. A synthetic vaccine candidate consisting of dendrimeric peptides harbouring two copies of a B-epitope [VP1(136–154)] linked ... -
Neutralizing monoclonal antibodies to fight HIV-1 : on the threshold of success
(2017)Anti-human immunodeficiency virus type-1 (anti-HIV-1) neutralizing monoclonal antibodies are broadening the spectrum of pre- and post-exposure treatment against HIV-1. A better understanding of how these antibodies develop ... -
Serologic evidence of HoBi-like virus circulation in Argentinean water buffalo
(2017-11)HoBi-like pestiviruses (also known as bovine viral diarrhea virus 3) have been sporadically reported from naturally infected cattle in Brazil, Asia, and Europe. Although HoBi-like viruses seem to be endemic in Brazilian ... -
Molecular characterization of equine rotavirus group A detected in Argentinean foals during 2009–2014
(2017-12)Equine rotavirus group A (RVA) has been detected in several countries worldwide since its first detection in 1975. Currently, equine RVA is considered the major cause of dehydrating diarrhea in foals younger than 3 months, ... -
Apicomplexan profilins in vaccine development applied to bovine neosporosis
(2017-12)Neospora caninum, an intracellular protozoan parasite from the phylum Apicomplexa, is the etiologic agent of neosporosis, a disease considered as a major cause of reproductive loss in cattle and neuromuscular disease in ... -
Evidence of natural interspecific recombinant viruses between bovine alphaherpesviruses 1 and 5
(2017-10)Closely related bovine alphaherpesviruses 1 (BoHV-1) and 5 (BoHV-5) co-circulate in certain countries, rendering cattle co-infection possible. This is a prerequisite for BoHV recombination. Here, we report the first ... -
Actualización en diarrea viral bovina, herramientas diagnósticas y estrategias de prevención
(Ediciones INTA, 2017)El virus de la diarrea viral bovina (VDVB) es uno de los agentes involucrados en los complejos respiratorio y reproductivo bovino y ocasiona importantes pérdidas econó- micas a nivel mundial. El VDVB pertenece al género ... -
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 ... -
Development and evaluation of a new lateral flow assay for simultaneous detection of antibodies against African horse sickness and equine infectious anemia viruses
(2016)African horse sickness (AHS) and equine infectious anemia (EIA) are both notifiable equid specific diseases that may present similar clinical signs. Considering the increased global movement of horses and equine products ... -
Fusion of foreign T-cell epitopes and addition of TLR agonists enhance immunity against Neospora caninum profilin in cattle
(2016)We demonstrated recently that immunization with recombinant Neospora caninum profilin (rNcPRO) induces limited protection and a regulatory T-cell response in mice. The aim of this study was to evaluate the immune response ... -
