The aim of this study is to describe the ultrasonographic features of feline gastrointestinal eosinophilic sclerosing fibroplasia (FGESF) before histological diagnosis and during follow-up after surgical excision and/or medical treatment. This multicentric retrospective case series study includes medical records of cats diagnosed histologically, which had an ultrasound before diagnosis and a minimum of one follow-up ultrasound at least 4 weeks after treatment. Thirty cats were included in the study.

BFRF3, an EBV-encoded small capsid protein, is mainly involved in the assembly of the viral capsid structure and the maintenance of its stability. Here, we showed that BFRF3 can inhibit TNF-α-mediated NF-кB promoter activation.

- * A patient with neonatal thrombocytopenia and combined immunodeficiency was found to have a new mutation (G12E) in RAP1B, which enhanced its activity and affected immune responses.
- * The study suggests that RAP1B gain-of-function mutations lead to immunodeficiency and thrombocytopenia, with varying severity, and that stem cell transplantation can effectively treat these conditions.
Objectives: To report the presentation, treatment and outcome of dogs with granulomatous steatitis associated with total and ionised hypercalcaemia.
Methods: Six dogs diagnosed with ionised and/or total hypercalcaemia and histologically diagnosed granulomatous steatitis were evaluated to determine the clinical signs, clinical findings, response to treatment and outcome. These cases were seen at different primary care and referral veterinary hospitals in the United Kingdom between 2019 and 2023.
