Genetic diversity of Mycobacterium avium complex strains isolated in Argentina by MIRU-VNTR
(2017-05)Mycobacterium avium sp. avium (MAA), M. avium sp. hominissuis (MAH), and M. avium sp. paratuberculosis (MAP) are the main members of the M. avium complex (MAC) causing diseases in several hosts. The aim of this study was ... -
The localization of a heterologous displayed antigen in the baculovirus-budded virion determines the type and strength of induced adaptive immune response
(2017-05)In the search of strategies of presentation of heterologous antigens to elicit humoral or cellular immune responses that modulate and properly potentiate each type of response, researchers have been studying baculovirus ... -
Achiote (Bixa orellana L.) : a natural source of pigment and vitamin E
(Springer, 2017-05)Commercialization of agricultural products, including seeds and its derived products, represents an important economic source for developing countries. Natural colorants obtained from the seeds of achiote plant (annatto) ... -
Genome-wide identification of microRNA targets in the neglected disease pathogens of the genus Echinococcus
(2017-06)MicroRNAs (miRNAs), a class of small non-coding RNAs, are key regulators of gene expression at posttranscriptional level and play essential roles in biological processes such as development. MiRNAs silence target mRNAs by ... -
A closed-tube loop-mediated isothermal amplification assay for the visual endpoint detection of Brucella spp. and Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis
(Springer, 2017-06)LAMP (loop-mediated isothermal amplification) is an isothermal nucleic acid amplification technique that is characterized by its efficiency, rapidity, high yield of final product, robustness, sensitivity, and specificity, ... -
Draft genome sequences of two mycobacterium bovis strains isolated from beef cattle in Paraguay
(2017-07)This work reports the draft genome sequences of the Mycobacterium bovis strains M1009 and M1010, isolated from the lymph nodes of two infected cows on a beef farm in Paraguay. Comparative genomics between these strains and ... -
First complete genome sequence of potato leafroll virus from Argentina
(2017-07)In this study, we determined for the first time the complete genomic sequence of an Argentinian isolate of Potato leafroll virus (PLRV), the type species of the genus Polerovirus. The isolate sequenced came from a Solanum ... -
Morphological and molecular evidence for a new species of Pseudanisakis Layman & Borovkova, 1926 (Nematoda: Ascaridida), parasitizing Rajiformes in southern Southwest Atlantic waters
(2017-07)Pseudanisakis argentinensis n. sp. is proposed to accommodate parasitic nematodes found in six skate species (Rajidae and Arhynchobatidae) examined from southern Southwest Atlantic waters. The new species differs from its ... -
Integration of transcriptomic and metabolic data reveals hub transcription factors involved in drought stress response in sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.)
(2017-07)Drought is one of the most important environmental stresses that effects crop productivity in many agricultural regions. Sunflower is tolerant to drought conditions but the mechanisms involved in this tolerance remain ... -
Differential replication of Foot-and-mouth disease viruses in mice determine lethality
(2017-09)Adult C57BL/6J mice have been used to study Foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV) biology. In this work, two variants of an FMDV A/Arg/01 strain exhibiting differential pathogenicity in adult mice were identified and ... -
Cestode parasites release extracellular vesicles with microRNAs and immunodiagnostic protein cargo
(2017-09)Intercellular communication is crucial in multiple aspects of cell biology. This interaction can be mediated by several mechanisms including extracellular vesicle (EV) transfer. EV secretion by parasites has been reported ... -
MicroRNA analysis of Taenia crassiceps cysticerci under praziquantel treatment and genome-wide identification of Taenia solium miRNAs
(2017-09)MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small non-coding RNAs that have emerged as important regulators of gene expression and perform critical functions in development and disease. In spite of the increased interest in miRNAs from helminth ... -
Mycobacterioses in dogs and cats from Buenos Aires, Argentina
(Sage Publications, 2017-09)Mycobacterioses can produce nonspecific clinical signs in dogs and cats that make diagnosis difficult. Furthermore, the full characterization of mycobacterial agents is not always possible or practical. We characterized ... -
Health care importance of Treponema pallidum, Chagas disease and Human immunodeficiency virus 1 among Amerindians of Argentina: an observational study = Importancia en el sistema de salud de la infección por Treponema pallidum, la enfermedad de Chagas y el virus de la inmunodeficiencia humana 1 en amerindios de Argentina: un estudio observacional
(Asociación Argentina de Microbiología, 2017-10)The objective of this study was to estimate the prevalence of Treponema pallidum, Trypanosoma cruzi and Human immunodeficiency virus 1 (HIV-1) in five Amerindian populations of Argentina. A retrospective study was conducted ... -
Leptospira species molecular epidemiology in the genomic era
(Elsevier, 2017-10)Leptospirosis is a zoonotic disease which global burden is increasing often related to climatic change. Hundreds of whole genome sequences from worldwide isolates of Leptospira spp. are available nowadays, together with ... -
Phenotyping sunflower genetic resources for Sclerotinia head rot response: assessing variability for disease resistance breeding
(The American Phytopathological Society, 2017-11)Sclerotinia head rot (SHR) is one of the most serious constraints to sunflower (Helianthus annuus L. var. macrocarpus) production worldwide. Here, we evaluated the response to SHR in a sunflower inbred panel from a large ... -
