In this study, a total of 5859 diarrhea samples were collected from different pig farms in China's Guangxi province during January 2020 and March 2024 and tested for PEDV using RT-qPCR. The positivity rate of PEDV was 11.

The newly emerged non-coding RNAs tsRNAs (tRNA-derived small RNAs) play an important role in the occurrence and development of BC. The purpose of this study was to comprehensively evaluate the prognostic, diagnostic and clinicopathological roles of tsRNAs in BC.

ROP27 is a pathogenic gene that is detected via a transcriptome, but its expression pattern, immunogenicity, and potency are unknown. Therefore, a gene segment of ROP27 was amplified and transplanted into the pET28a prokaryotic vector for the expression of the recombinant protein, and it subsequently purified for the generation of a polyclonal antibody.

There is no licensed antiviral medication that can effectively control this infection. In the present study, the structure of SP-1 isolated and purified from was analyzed, and its antioxidant capacity and antiviral effect in MARC-145 cells against PRRSV were investigated.

Herein, four water quality regulators, including potassium monopersulfate (KMPS), tetrakis hydroxymethyl phosphonium sulfate (THPS), bacillus subtilis (BS), and chitosan (CS), were added to the culture water of Oreochromis niloticus (GIFT tilapia) every seven days. Subsequently, the effects of these four water quality regulators on GIFT tilapia were comprehensively evaluated by measuring the water quality index of daily growth-related performance and immune indexes of GIFT tilapia.

View Article and Find Full Text PDFPorcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2) is the main pathogen causing porcine circovirus-associated diseases (PCVD/PCVADs), and infection of the host induces immunosuppression. Since quercitrin (QUE) has anti-inflammatory and antiviral activity, it is worth exploiting in animal diseases. In this study, the interventional effects and the molecular mechanism of QUE on PCV2-induced oxidative stress and inflammatory responses in 3D4/2 cells and the modulation of histone acetylation modifications were investigated.

In this study, the secretion of reactive oxygen species (ROS) induced by PRV infection was detected by flow cytometry, and RNA expression profiles of the 3D4/2 cells were produced and analyzed by sequenced GO (Gene Ontology) and KEGG (Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes); the sequencing results were verified by RT-qCR. The results showed that the secretion of ROS induced by PRV infection in 3D4/2 cells could be significantly decreased by quercitrin.

This study investigated the regulatory effect of Panax notoginseng saponins (PNS) on the oxidative stress and histone acetylation modification induced by PCV2 in vitro and in mice. In vitro, PNS significantly increased the scavenging capacities of superoxide anion radicals (O) and hydroxyl radicals (OH) and reduced the content of hydrogen peroxide (HO) induced by PCV2 in porcine alveolar macrophages (3D4/2).

Little is known about the prevalence of neurotropic AstVs in Chinese water buffaloes, but a novel species which is associated with encephalitis and meningitis has recently been found. In this study, based on nested RT-PCR, rapid amplification of the 3'-cDNA end (3'-RACE) and next-generation sequencing (NGS), we examined the infection of AstVs in water buffaloes in the Guangxi Province of China.
