Article Abstract

Intravenous use of doxycycline in horses is associated with deleterious side effects on the cardiovascular system which may result in fatalities. At dosages and infusion rates used in these studies, supraventricular tachycardia, systemic arterial hypertension, clinical signs of discomfort, collapse and death were observed. Results of the present study suggest that the intravenous use of doxycycline should be avoided in horses.

Brucellosis is a zoonotic infection caused by the species of bacteria. It is mainly transmitted to humans through consuming unpasteurized dairy products or through direct contact with infected animals. Brucellosis can present with a variety of symptoms, including fever, fatigue, weight loss, and organ-specific complications.

Article Synopsis
  • Staphylococcus pseudintermedius, a zoonotic bacteria found in pets like dogs and cats, can cause bacterial infections, which led to a study on treating a cat with orbifloxacin for skin wounds.
  • After 80 days of treatment, a resistant strain (novel sequence type ST 2660) was discovered in a severe abscess, showing resistance to multiple antibiotic classes and carrying harmful toxin genes.
  • The isolate demonstrated strong biofilm formation ability at higher temperatures (39 °C), indicating an adaptation to body temperature, and this study marks the first report in Japan identifying the unique virulence of this strain in companion animals.

The restoration of blood flow to the ischemic myocardium inflicts ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) heart injury (IRI). The main contributors to IRI are increased oxidative stress and subsequent excessive production of ROS, increased expression of NOS and peroxinitate, activation of MMPs, and enhanced posttranslational modifications of contractile proteins, which make them more susceptible to proteolytic degradation. Since the pathophysiology of IRI is a complex issue, and thus, various therapeutic strategies are required to prevent or reduce IRI and microvascular dysfunction, in the current study we proposed an innovative multi-drug therapy using low concentrations of drugs applied intracoronary to reach microvessels in order to stabilize the pro- and antioxidant balance during a MI in an in vivo pig model.

Multidrug-resistant (MDR) bacteria in farm environments can be transferred to humans through the food chain and occupational exposure. Enterococcus infections caused by linezolid resistant enterococci (LRE) are becoming more challenging to treat as their resistance to antibiotics intensifies. Therefore, this study investigated the molecular epidemiology, phenotypic and genomic characterization of enterococci in seven species of farm animals (sheep, chicken, swine, camel, cattle, equine, pigeon) anal swab from Xinjiang, China by agar dilution method, polymerase chain reaction (PCR), whole-genome sequencing (WGS) and bioinformatics analysis.
