Efficacy of Rituximab in CANOMAD: A Systematic Review.

CANOMAD, characterized by chronic ataxic neuropathy, ophthalmoplegia, immunoglobulin M (IgM) paraprotein, cold agglutinins, and disialosyl antibodies, encompasses a clinical, radiological, and laboratory diagnosis. CANOMAD is a rare condition, with fewer than 100 cases reported in the literature. The understanding and diagnosis of the disease have improved in the last few years, but the treatment of CANOMAD is mainly unknown, and there is not a clear consensus about it.

Novel Phage, vB_Sen_STGO-35-1, Characterization and Evaluation in Chicken Meat.

Salmonellosis is one of the most frequently reported zoonotic foodborne diseases worldwide, and poultry is the most important reservoir of serovar Enteritidis. The use of lytic bacteriophages (phages) to reduce foodborne pathogens has emerged as a promising biocontrol intervention for spp. Here, we describe and evaluate the newly isolated phage STGO-35-1, including: (i) genomic and phenotypic characterization, (ii) an analysis of the reduction of in chicken meat, and (iii) genome plasticity testing.

Comparative Analysis of Genomes Including Two New Members of the Genus That Infect Infantis.

spp. is one of the most common foodborne pathogens worldwide; therefore, its control is highly relevant for the food industry. Phages of the genus have the characteristic that one phage can infect a large number of different serovars and, thus, are proposed as an alternative to antimicrobials in food production.

Screening the Presence of Non-Typhoidal in Different Animal Systems and the Assessment of Antimicrobial Resistance.

is a major bacterial foodborne pathogen that causes the majority of worldwide food-related outbreaks and hospitalizations. Salmonellosis outbreaks can be caused by multidrug-resistant (MDR) strains, emphasizing the importance of maintaining public health and safer food production. Nevertheless, the drivers of MDR serovars have remained poorly understood.

in Raptors and Aquatic Wild Birds in Chile.

is one of the main causes of gastrointestinal disease worldwide. Wild birds are capable of harboring a variety of serovars, which could have an important role in the epidemiology of salmonellosis in humans and production animals. We tested 519 fecal samples from raptors and aquatic birds from different regions of central (three rehabilitation centers for wildlife and the coastal area) and southern areas of Chile for .

Backyard Farms Represent a Source of Wide Host Range Salmonella Phages That Lysed the Most Common Salmonella Serovars.

The genus Salmonella has more than 2,600 serovars, and this trait is important when considering interventions for Salmonella control. Bacteriophages that are used for biocontrol must have an exclusively lytic cycle and the ability to lyse several Salmonella serovars under a wide range of environmental conditions. Salmonella phages were isolated and characterized from 34 backyard production systems (BPSs) with a history of Salmonella infections.

Short communication: Characterization of Salmonella phages from dairy calves on farms with history of diarrhea.

Salmonella enterica can cause disease and mortality in calves. This pathogen is also a zoonosis that can be transmitted by animal contact or by food. The prevalence of Salmonella in dairy farms has been reported to range from 0 to 64%, and, due to the diversity of Salmonella serovars that can be circulating, Salmonella is an important concern for dairy production.

Hepatogenic and neurogenic differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells from abattoir-derived bovine fetuses.

Background: Mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) are multipotent progenitor cells characterized by their ability to both self-renew and differentiate into tissues of mesodermal origin. The plasticity or transdifferentiation potential of MSC is not limited to mesodermal derivatives, since under appropriate cell culture conditions and stimulation by bioactive factors, MSC have also been differentiated into endodermal (hepatocytes) and neuroectodermal (neurons) cells. The potential of MSC for hepatogenic and neurogenic differentiation has been well documented in different animal models; however, few reports are currently available on large animal models.

Isolation and multilineage differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells from abattoir-derived bovine fetuses.

Background: Mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) are multipotent progenitor cells localized in the stromal compartment of the bone marrow (BM). The potential of MSC for mesenchymal differentiation has been well documented in different animal models predominantly on rodents. However, information regarding bovine MSC (bMSC) is limited, and the differentiation potential of bMSC derived from fetal BM remains unknown.
