Cutaneous vascular neoplasia in 15 cats: clinical, morphologic, and immunohistochemical studies.     

M A Miller  J A Ramos  J M Kreeger 《Veterinary pathology》1992,29(4):329-336

Seven cases of cutaneous hemangioma and nine of cutaneous hemangiosarcoma were diagnosed from biopsy specimens of 15 Domestic Shorthairs of 5,091 cats that were examined by necropsy or biopsy during the 5-year period from 1 January 1986 through 31 December 1990. All but three cats were male. Tumor cells of both hemangiomas and hemangiosarcomas were immunoreactive for factor VIII-related antigen and for vimentin by the avidin biotin peroxidase complex method. In cats with a median age of 10 years, hemangiomas occurred in skin with pigmented hair in six of seven cases without apparent site predilection. These solitary tumors did not recur after excision although one cat (No. 3) subsequently developed cutaneous hemangiosarcoma at another site. Seven of nine hemangiosarcomas occurred in dermis and subcutis of the head, usually on the pinna. All five hemangiosarcomas of the head, for which cutaneous pigmentation could be determined, occurred in unpigmented skin. Cats with hemangiosarcoma had a median age of 12.5 years at the time of diagnosis. Metastasis has not been documented, but hemangiosarcoma has recurred, from 1 month to 2 years after excision, in 6/7 cats that were studied.  相似文献

猪轮状病毒2型(PCV2)是潜在的“定时炸弹”吗?     

Gordon Allan  Steve Krakowka  John Ellis  王洪戈 《中国牧业通讯》2003,(20):57-58

对猪轮状病毒2型(PCV2)的研究,为全球探讨断奶后多系统消瘦综合征(PMWS)的特殊问题,提供了许多答案。但是本文提出了一些还需要特别注意的地方 ,用以避免其可能导致的“恶果”出现。过去几年里 ,在关于断奶后多系统消瘦综合征(PMWS)、猪轮状病毒病(PCVD )全球性的探讨中 ,已经对许多关于疾病流行特点的来源和特征进行了广泛的研究。猪血清中猪轮状病毒2型 (PCV2)抗体以及猪的组织样本的检测表明 ,至少从1969年起 ,猪轮状病毒2型 (PCV2)的抗体就已经存在于猪的群体中了。现在已经确定 ,从1986年起在西班牙和英国就发现了传统的PMWS…  相似文献   

Ⅱ型猪环状病毒是断奶后全身消耗性综合征的致病因子     

袁森泉  覃矜  G.Allan 《国外畜牧学(猪与禽)》2001,(6):50-51

Ⅱ型猪环状病毒 (PCV2 )现已被证明是断奶后全身消耗性综合征 (PMWS)的致病因子 ,这一综合征是一种可造成世界各地严重经济损失的猪病。最近的研究还证实此病毒与加拿大和欧洲猪群的繁殖障碍有关。但是 ,绝大多数PCV2感染都是亚临床性的。刺激仔猪免疫系统是感染此病毒后产生临床疾病的重要因子吗 ?  相似文献

The effectiveness of benzimidazole-levamisole combination drenches in the presence of resistance to both benzimidazole and levamisole anthelmintics in New Zealand sheep     

McKenna PB  Allan CM  Taylor MJ 《New Zealand veterinary journal》1996,44(3):116-118

Examination of 25 cases of multiple benzimidazole and levamisole resistance, identified in sheep by faecal egg count reduction testing at the Batchelar, Lincoln and Invermay Animal Health Laboratories, showed that benzimidazole-levamisole combinations provided effective control in eight (47%) of 17 cases in which they were tested. Overall, the use of combination drenches resulted in average improvements in faecal egg count reductions of 25.6% (p<0.01) and 23.2% (p<0.05), respectively, over those achieved by the use of benzimidazole or levamisole drenches alone. The results suggest that instances of multiple resistance in which combination drenches might be effective are unlikely to be predictable either by identification of the parasites involved, or from the levels of benzimidazole or levamisole resistance present.  相似文献   

Some characteristics of a natural infection by parainfluenza-3 virus in a group of calves.     

E M Allan  H M Pirie  I E Selman  D R Snodgrass 《Research in veterinary science》1978,24(3):339-346

Parainfluenza-3 (Pi3) virus infection in a group of 25 calves is described. The virus was isolated from the lungs of four calve at days 6, 7, 13 and 55 after they were housed together at birth. Intracytoplasmic inclusion bodies were seen by light microscopy in bronchial and bronchiolar epithelial cells of two of these calves. Virus infected cells were detected by electron microscopy in three of the four calves. Haemagglutination inhibition antibodies to Pi3 virus were found in the sera of the calves. Despite the virus being present in the group from one week, a significant increase in antibody titre was found in only two animals although all the calves were in contact with each other during the study period. The pulmonary lesions in the four infected calves consisted of a bronchitis and bronchiolitis with infiltration of the walls and lumena of these structures by neutrophils and an adjacent neutrophil infiltration of alveoli some of which were collapsed.  相似文献   

Tolerance breaking by lymphocyte activating factor induced by Escherichia coli O138 lipopolysaccharide from homologous macrophages.     

D Allan  P Jenkins  F I Crampton 《Research in veterinary science》1978,25(2):188-192

Following an antigenic dose of 10 microgram or a tolerogenic dose of 200 microgram of Escherichia coli O138 lipopolysaccharide (LPS), BALB/c mice were examined on day 14 for percentages of theta-bearing cells. A considerable increase in T cells was noticed in lymphocytes from tolerant draining lymph nodes, and furthermore these cells did not possess receptors for LPS when tested for rosette inhibition. However, when the supernatant from 1 X 10(7) macrophages, pretreated with 150 microgram LPS, was given to tolerant mice on day 7, by day 14 tolerance was found to be broken, anti-LPS IgG was present in circulation and the draining lymph node contained T cells specifically committed to LPS. The change from suppressor to helper T cell activity is discussed in relation to enhancement of the immune response.  相似文献

Identification ofTomato Mottle Taino Begomovirus strains in Cuban potato fields     

Marlene Cordero  Pedro L. Ramos  Lester Hernández  Ana I. Fernández  Ana L. Echemendía  Rudy Peral  Gloria González  Daniel García  Surey Valdés  Ana Estévez  Keren Hernández 《Phytoparasitica》2003,31(5):478-489

The presence of a begomovirus in potato plants with yellow mottle symptoms was determined for the first time in Cuba. The incidence of typical begomovirus-like symptoms in potato plants in some regions of Havana province (Güira de Melena, San José de las Lajas, Güines and Boyeros) during the growing seasons from 1992 to 1998 was in general low. However, in some cultivars belonging to the National Program for Potato Genetic Improvement, the incidence reached 100%. Yield losses, determined in 1992 and 1994, ranged as high as 19% to 56.33% depending on the cultivar. Characterization of the causal agent was done by light microscopy, host range (graft and mechanical transmission), DNA hybridizations, polymerase chain reaction, and restriction fragment length polymorphism analysis. Nucleotide sequence of the amplified fragments revealed the presence ofTomato mottle Taino virus. The virus was transmittedvia tubers and has been detected in mixed infections withPotato virus X and withPotato leaf roll virus. http://www.phytoparasitica.org posting Oct. 20, 2003.
