Prevalence Of Mycoplasma Wenyonii Infection On Seven Dairy Farms In Shanghai, China, Yuan Congli, Ying Hong, Zhang Zhonghai, Yang Zhibiao, Cui Li, Zhu Jianguo, Hua Xiuguo
The Thai Journal of Veterinary Medicine
Mycoplasma wenyonii (M. Wenyonii) was studied by PCR and blood smear staining in 197 cows. Clinical signsand hematological parameters of all tested cows were collected. Results confirmed that 31% populations werepositive of M. wenyonii infection. Statistical analysis revealed that the cows of 2-4 years old were most susceptible. Noclinical sings were found to be significantly associated with the infection. The infection also did not result in anemiabased on hematological investigation that only showed elevation of WBC counts in infected cows. Sequence analysisof the partial 16S rRNA gene showed that three different representative strains were confirmed in the present study.

Genes Associated With Genetic Diseases In Collies, Shetland Sheepdogs And Border Collies, Gunnaporn Suriyaphol
The Thai Journal of Veterinary Medicine
Canine genetic disorders inherited through genes or chromosomes. Mutations can also occur spontaneouslyor influenced by environmental factors. Such disorders can be transmitted to offspring. However, the disease may notbe developed owing to other influenced factors. Dominant and recessive genetic mechanisms also affect the traitoutcome. This article discussed the abnormalities of genes affected by the disease and/ or genetic disorders in Collies,Shetland sheepdogs and Border collies, sharing the Collie lineage. Most of these disorders are caused by autosomalrecessive genes. Hence, paired recessive alleles are required in order to express its phenotype. Although dogs areasymptomatic carriers, they can pass down defective genes …

Inner cell mass (ICM) is an important source of embryonic stem (ES) cells. There are several methods thathave been developed to increase the efficiency of ICM cell isolation as well as improve the ES cells derivation rate. Inconventional ICM isolation methods, the methods currently in use destroy trophectoderm cells of blastocyst stageembryos in order to release the ICM cell clumps. These conventional methods are considered embryo destructionmethods as the embryos will be unable to survive after ICM is removed. Recently, an alternative method wasreported using single biopsied blastomeres of earlier stage embryos as a source of ES cells. This novel …

In order to understand the change of MMP-2 and MMP-9 in dogs with mammary gland tumor (MGT), theactivity of MMP-2 and MMP-9 in plasma samples, MGT tissues and near by normal mammary gland tissues wereevaluated by gelatin zymography. The levels of MMP-2 and MMP-9 were significantly higher in tumor tissues thanthose in normal gland tissues (p<0.05). Plasma MMP-9 levels in malignant cases were higher than those in benign(p=0.15) and non-tumor cases (p<0.05). Likewise, plasma MMP-2 levels in malignant MGT cases were higher thannon-tumor (p<0.01) and benign cases (p=0.54). Furthermore, plasma MMP-9 levels were reflected and positivelycorrelated with MMP-9 in tumor tissues (r=0.78, p=0.02), but not MMP-2. Our results indicated that the MMP-2 andMMP-9 levels are associated with tumor malignancy, and plasma MMP-9 activity can become a potential marker bothin follow-up and prognosis of canine MGT patients.
