Background and aims: Interleukin 6 (IL6), also known as interferon beta 2, is a class-I helical cytokine with a broad spectrum of biological activities in humoral and cellular defense. This class of cytokines has a gene structure conserved throughout vertebrates, with five coding exons. IL6 is involved in the immune response against rabbit hemorrhagic disease virus that causes a highly fatal disease in the Euro...
BACKGROUND: Balance training is often employed for the prevention of ankle injuries. However, until now, most of the studies have focused on the prevention of a recurrent injury. The objective of this study was to look into the effects of balance training on the onset of peroneal muscle activity in healthy subjects. METHODS: 34 participants (mean age = 19.5 years +/- 1.5; height = 1.70 m +/- 0.12; weight = 62.0...
Empregou-se a técnica de reação em cadeia pela polimerase precedida de transcrição reversa para detecção do vírus da cinomose canina (CC). Para a padronização da técnica foram selecionados quatro pares de oligonucleotídeos (P1, P2, N1, H1), baseados em seqüências dos genes da fosfoproteína, neuraminidase e hemaglutinina, sendo utilizadas três cepas vacinais de vírus da CC como controles positivos. Foram analisa...
During a series of experiments attempting to reproduce clinically apparent bovine herpesvirus type 5 (BoHV-5) infections, a group of calves was inadvertently infected with bovine viral diarrhoea virus (BVDV). Another group of calves was infected with BoHV-5 only. This paper reports the outcome of such infections. Two out of six calves solely infected with BoHV-5 displayed moderate to severe clinical signs. Thre...
O perfil antigênico de 45 herpesvírus (44 de bovinos, sendo seis amostras de referência de BHV-1 e 15 prováveis BHV-1; três amostras de referência de BHV-5 e 20 prováveis BHV-5) e uma amostra de herpesvírus bubalino (BuHV) foi examinado com um painel de anticorpos monoclonais (Acms) produzidos contra antígenos de herpesvírus bovinos. Para os exames, foi utilizada a prova de imunoperoxidase (IPX) sobre cultivos ...
