First detection and genetic characterization of chicken infectious anemia virus in the Mekong Delta, Vietnam.

Background: Chicken infectious anemia (CIA) caused by the CIA virus (CIAV) is considered one of the most important immunosuppressive diseases affecting chickens and recently poses a great economic burden to the poultry industry worldwide.

Aim: This study aims to identify the presence of CIAV in the Mekong Delta (MD), Vietnam, and to determine genotypes of CIAVs that are currently circulating in this area.

Methods: Organ samples (spleen, liver, and thymus) of 144 chickens suspected with CIA from 47 poultry farms were collected.

Phonon-drag thermopower and thermoelectric performance of MoSmonolayer in quantizing magnetic field.

We present a theory of phonon-drag thermopower,Sxxg, in MoSmonolayer at a low-temperature regime in the presence of a quantizing magnetic field. Our calculations forSxxgconsider the electron-acoustic phonon interaction via deformation potential (DP) and piezoelectric (PE) couplings for longitudinal (LA) and transverse (TA) phonon modes. The unscreened TA-DP is found to dominateSxxgover other mechanisms.

Prevalence and Genetic Relationship of Predominant Serotypes Isolated from Poultry, Wild Animals, and Environment in the Mekong Delta, Vietnam.

Avian pathogenic (APEC) is the main causative agent of avian colibacillosis, which is an important systemic disease of profound economic and clinical consequences for the poultry industry worldwide. In this study, 975 strains were isolated from 2,169 samples collected from cloacal swabs of chickens, in-farm wild animals (ants, geckos, flies, and rats), and environment. The highest proportion of isolation was obtained from chicken cloacal swabs with 71.

Goose Hemorrhagic polyomavirus detection in geese using real-time PCR assay.

Goose hemorrhagic polyomavirus (GHPV) is the viral agent of hemorrhagic nephritis enteritis of geese (HNEG), a lethal disease of goslings. Although death is the most common outcome, geese that recover from HNEG are persistently infected. Here, we present the development of real-time SYBR Green real-time PCR targeted to GHPV and its use to assess the prevalence of GHPV infection in French geese flocks.

Somatic RHOA mutation in angioimmunoblastic T cell lymphoma.

Angioimmunoblastic T cell lymphoma (AITL) is a distinct subtype of peripheral T cell lymphoma characterized by generalized lymphadenopathy and frequent autoimmune-like manifestations. Although frequent mutations in TET2, IDH2 and DNMT3A, which are common to various hematologic malignancies, have been identified in AITL, the molecular pathogenesis specific to this lymphoma subtype is unknown. Here we report somatic RHOA mutations encoding a p.
