Nocardia seriolae: a serious threat to the largemouth bass Micropterus salmoides industry in Southwest China.

Nocardia seriolae is the causative agent of nocardiosis in both marine and freshwater fish. Here, we report on multiple outbreaks of nocardiosis associated with elevated mortality (23-35%) in farmed largemouth bass in Sichuan, China, from 2017 to 2018. A total of 9 strains isolated from diseased largemouth bass were identified as N.

Adjuvant effects of interleukin-2 co-expression with VP60 in an oral vaccine delivered by attenuated Salmonella typhimurium against rabbit hemorrhagic disease.

Rabbit hemorrhagic disease (RHD) is a highly contagious infection that has caused significant damage to the rabbit industry since 1984. Inactivated vaccines, the currently used prevention measures, are effective in controlling RHD. However, these vaccines are derived from the livers of infected rabbits, which constitutes a major concern in terms of animal welfare and safety.

Effects of α-enolase (ENO1) over-expression on malignant biological behaviors of AGS cells.

Objective: To investigate the effects of α-Enolase (ENO1) over-expression on the proliferative and migratory abilities of AGS cells.

Methods: The target gene was cloned and mounted to the eukaryotic expression vector pcDNA3.1(+), then was transfected into gastric cancer cell lines AGS.
