BACKGROUND Canine atopic dermatitis (CAD) is an inflammatory and pruritic allergic skin disease caused by interactions between genetic and environmental factors. Previously, a genome-wide significant risk locus on canine chromosome 27 for CAD was identified in German shepherd dogs (GSDs) and Plakophilin-2 (PKP2) was defined as the top candidate gene. PKP2 constitutes a crucial component of desm...

Isolated infection of the subacromial bursa is a rare entity. We present the case of a previously fit man who was found to have staphylococcal infection of the sub-acromial bursa, without an obvious precipitant. Preoperative MRI scanning determined the specific locus of infection, and the patient was successfully treated with arthroscopic washout of the sub-acromial bursa followed by empirical ...

In the chicken, the bursa of Fabricius is essential for the development of lymphoid cells that will synthesize and secrete both IgM and IgG (1-3). WheI1 newly hatched chickens are bursectomized and irradiated, they fail to synthesize serum immunoglobulin(s) (Ig) 1 even though the expression of cell-mediated immunity remains normal. Hence, the bursa of the chicken provides an excellent experimen...

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the frequency of inadvertent penetration of the digital flexor tendon sheath (DFTS) and/or distal interphalangeal joint (DIPJ) when using a direct endoscopic approach to the navicular bursa, and to evaluate an alternate direct approach to the navicular bursa. STUDY DESIGN Cadaveric study. SAMPLE POPULATION Equine cadaver limbs (n = 40 for direct; n = 12 for alternate a...

HOSHI, H. Effect of Inoculation of Bursa Cells on the Splenic Lymphoid Tissue of Bursectomized and X-irradiated Chickens. Tohoku J. exp. Med., 1972, 108 (2), 113-121 Bursectomized and X-irradiated chickens were given intraperitoneal inoculation of live bursa cells in an attempt to restore the periellipsoidal lymphoid cells in their spleens. An injection of viable cells prepared from autologous ...

An operation for chronic prepatellar bursitis is described in which only the posterior wall of the bursa is excised, thus preserving, undamaged, healthy and normally sensitive skin. This procedure is easier and less traumatic than complete excision of the bursa and results in fewer complications. It is suggested that removal of tha anterior wall of the bursa results in unnecessary and harmful i...

Experiments were conducted to determine whether the beet leafhopper, Circulifer tenellus (Baker) (Hemiptera: Cicadellidae), transmits the purple top phytoplasma to potato, Solanum tuberosum L.; beets, Beta vulgaris L.; and selected weed hosts. The beet leafhopper-transmitted virescence agent (BLTVA) phytoplasma was identified as the causal agent of the potato purple top disease outbreaks that r...
