The effect of bovine viral diarrhea virus on bovine monocyte phenotype
Bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVDV) is an economically important pathogen of the livestock industry worldwide. BVDV is classified into cytopathic (cp) and noncytopathic (ncp), depending on its effects on cultured cells. BVDV is known to alter the host’s immune response. Of this, major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class II molecules play a central role in the development and function of the i...
متن کاملInvestigation of Polymorphism in Exon II of MHC-DRB1 Gene Using PCR-RFLP Technique and Its Association with Growth Traits in Adani Goat
In the present study, blood samples were collected from 97 Adani goat from Bushehr province in order to identify the polymorphism in the exon II region of MHC-DRB1 gene (Major Histocompatibility Complex) and also, its association with growth traits (birth weight and 3 months weight). Genomic DNA was extracted from blood samples. A 279-bp fragment was amplified using polymerase chain reaction (P...
متن کاملSingle strand conformation polymorphisms (SSCPs) in the 5'- flanking region of Lactoferrin gene and its association with milk production traits and somatic cell score in Holstein cattle
Lactoferrin (Lf) is a bioactive protein present in all external secretions such as milk that plays important role in the innate host defense. Therefore, the Lf has a major role in bovine mammary gland defense during mastitis. In this study, 5’-flanking region of bovine Lf gene containing three single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) at positions −602 (T/G), −600 (A/G) ...

متن کاملPolymorphism of the b-Lactoglobulin Gene and Its Association with Milk Production Traits in Iranian Najdi Cattle
The objective of this study was to determine the polymorphism of bovine β-lactoglobulin (β-LG) gene and its association with milk production traits in Iranian Najdi cattle. Blood samples were collected from 80 Najdi cattle from the Najdi cattle breeding station located in Shoshtar, Khuzestan. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) techniqus were used...
