Tonsil and turbinate colonization by toxigenic and nontoxigenic strains of Pasteurella multocida in conventionally raised swine.
Pneumonia and upper respiratory tract infections, such as atrophic rhinitis, are common and insidious diseases of swine. They are often considered causes of decreased rate of weight gain, inefficient feed conversion, and increased time to market, although these parameters do not absolutely correlate with the severity of lesions. Pasteurella multocida is associated with lower and upper respirato...
متن کاملIL-2-deficient mice raised under germfree conditions develop delayed mild focal intestinal inflammation.
Interleukin-2 (IL-2) amplifies immune stimuli and influences B cell differentiation. IL-2-deficient mice spontaneously develop intestinal inflammation if raised under specific pathogen-free (SPF) conditions. We quantitatively determined the aggressiveness and kinetics of gastrointestinal and hepatic inflammation in the presence or absence of viable bacteria in IL-2-deficient mice. Breeding colo...
متن کاملSelenium effects on glutathione peroxidase and the immune response of stressed calves challenged with Pasteurella hemolytica.
The present study was conducted to determine whether a marginal Se deficiency affects health, blood characteristics and the immune response of calves subjected to stresses associated with weaning, shipping (332 km) and Pasteurella hemolytica inoculation. Treatments were 1) -Se, 2) -Se/P. hemolytica, 3) +Se (.1 mg Se/kg feed) and 4) +Se/P. hemolytica. Previous Se intake was controlled; dams of -...
متن کاملPhagocytosis, peritoneal influx, and enzyme activities in peritoneal macrophages from germfree, conventional, and ex-germfree mice.
Peritoneal macrophages from germfree mice showed a higher basic activity of lysosomal enzymes than did macrophages from conventional mice, whereas oil-induced peritoneal influx, induction of lysosomal enzymes, and phagocytosis via the C3b receptor after endotoxin stimulation were reduced or absent. After germfree mice had been housed with conventional mice for 1 week, peritoneal influx and C3b ...
متن کاملOlfactory epithelium changes in germfree mice
Intestinal epithelium development is dramatically impaired in germfree rodents, but the consequences of the absence of microbiota have been overlooked in other epithelia. In the present study, we present the first description of the bacterial communities associated with the olfactory epithelium and explored differences in olfactory epithelium characteristics between germfree and conventional, s...
