Bovine papillomavirus type 9 (BPV9) is a causative agent of severe teat papillomatosis. Considering the lack of efficient BPV culture methods, recombinant proteins such as virus-like particles developed through genetic engineering may serve as a useful tool for developing effective vaccines against BPV infection. In this study, we successfully produced immunogenic particles composed of recombinant L1 protein of BPV9 (rBPV9-L1), using a baculovirus expression system. rBPV9-L1-immunized mice produced BPV9-specific IgG, which did not cross-react with BPV type 6, which is another causative agent of teat papillomatosis. Hence, immunogenic rBPV9-L1 is potentially applicable as a vaccine candidate for teat papillomatosis.

This study aimed to explore the diagnostic value of the two cytology techniques, including liquid-based cytology of mammary ductal lavage fluid and nipple discharge smear cytology, in the intraductal lesions in patients with pathological nipple discharge (PND). This retrospective analysis included 119 patients with PND who underwent surgical treatment. At the same time, they all underwent fiberoptic ductoscopy (FDS), nipple discharge smear cytology and liquid-based cytology of ductal lavage fluid before surgery.

Analysis of the clinicopathological and imaging features in breast intraductal papillary lesions with or without pathological nipple discharge.

Sci Rep

January 2025

Department of Breast Surgery, Cheeloo College of Medicine, Qilu Hospital (Qingdao), Shandong University, 758 Hefei Road, Qingdao, 266000, Shandong, China.

With the popularity of breast screening, more and more intraductal papillary lesions (IDPL)were detected by ultrasound or mammography, which is a spectrum of diseases ranging from benign to malignant lesions. Patients with pathological nipple discharge (PND) may indicate IDPL, but it is difficult to clarify their biological characteristics before the operation. As to patients with IDPL without PND, it is even an enormous challenge to differentiate their benign or malignant characteristics.

Article Synopsis
  • An article discusses a complicated case of an elderly man who was misdiagnosed with a sweat adenoma, but later found to have an intraductal mammary papilloma through surgical pathology.
  • The 61-year-old patient experienced a persistent and painful breast mass for six months before surgical intervention confirmed the actual diagnosis.
  • The study stresses the difficulty in distinguishing between conditions using ultrasound alone and highlights the importance of thorough pathological evaluation to avoid misdiagnosis.

The possible role of haematophagous flies in the incidence of bovine teat papillomatosis.

Med Vet Entomol

September 2024

National Institute of Animal Health, National Agriculture and Food Research Organization, Tsukuba, Ibaraki, Japan.

The relationship between the incidence of bovine teat papillomatosis and the activity of haematophagous flies was investigated in Japan. A total of 15,737 flies consisting of 33 species were collected by dry ice-baited mosquito net (DMN) trap and a sweep net from udders of cattle. Simulium aokii (Takahasi) of Simuliidae (black flies) was the predominant species, followed by S.

Article Synopsis
  • - The nipple-areolar complex (NAC) is a crucial part of breast anatomy that can be affected by various benign and malignant diseases, often presenting overlapping symptoms and imaging findings.
  • - Understanding NAC's unique structure and the various conditions affecting it is key for accurate diagnosis; this includes assessing nipple discharge, which can signal serious issues like breast cancer.
  • - A multimodal imaging approach, particularly utilizing breast MRI alongside other techniques, is essential for evaluating NAC diseases and guiding appropriate clinical management, including biopsy options for testing identified issues.
