Leptospira spp. is recognized by TLR2 and induces IFN-β and IFN-λ expression in smegma from naturally infected bulls.

Leptospirosis, a zoonosis with a wide worldwide distribution, causes significant reproductive losses in cattle. The genital presentation of the disease has been reported, and its understanding is crucial for the implementation of adequate sanitary measures. Although Leptospira spp.

TLR activation, immune response and viral protection elicited in cattle by a commercial vaccine against Bovine Herpesvirus-1.

The innate and acquired immune response induced by a commercial inactivated vaccine against Bovine Herpesvirus-1 (BoHV-1) and protection conferred against the virus were analyzed in cattle. Vaccination induced high levels of BoHV-1 antibodies at 30, 60, and 90 days post-vaccination (dpv). IgG1 and IgG2 isotypes were detected at 90 dpv, as well as virus-neutralizing antibodies.
