Association of melatonin administration in pregnant ewes with growth, redox status and immunity of their offspring
(2021)In this study, the effects of melatonin treatment on growth, redox status and immunity in prenatally stressed newborn lambs were evaluated. Thirty-seven newborn lambs were allocated into two groups (melatonin-MEL and ... -
Aujeszky's Disease (Pseudorabies). An old threat in current pig industry? Part II. Epidemiology, Immunity, Prevention and the current situation in Greece
(2011)Aujeszky's disease (AD) (or pseudorabics) is an important viral disease of swine causing neurological signs in neonatal pigs, respiratory problems in fatteners and reproductive disorders in breeding stock. Swine is the ... -
Editorial: Role of Ribonucleases in Immune Response Regulation During Infection and Cancer
(2020)[No abstract available] -
The effect of chicory (Cichorium intybus) and sulla (Hedysarum coronarium) on larval development and mucosal cell responses of growing lambs challenged with Teladorsagia circumcincta
(2006)The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of grazing different bioactive forages on acquired immunity against Teladorsagia circumcinta infection. The development of immunity was assessed by following the response ... -
The effects of changes in nutritional demand on gastrointestinal parasitism in lactating rats
(2007)Lactating rats experience a breakdown of immunity to parasites, i.e. they carry larger worm burdens after re-infection compared to their non-lactating counterparts. Feeding high-protein foods to lactating rats results in ... -
EXERCISE AND EXPOSURE TO HEAT FOLLOWING BOVINE COLOSTRUM SUPPLEMENTATION: A REVIEW OF GASTROINTESTINAL AND IMMUNE FUNCTION
(2013)Colostrum is the first milk produced by mammalian mothers and is essential for the health and survival of the newborn. Bovine colostrum (BC) has greater concentrations of the bioactive components (i.e. immune and growth ... -
Hare demography, physiology and European Brown Hare Syndrome virus infection: Is there an association?
(2016)Epidemiological studies of disease ecology typically ignore the influence of host sex, age, nutritional condition and immunocompetence factors. However, this can lead to shortcomings and incorrect conclusions regarding the ... -
Heterologous Challenge with PRRSV-1 MLV in Pregnant Vaccinated Gilts: Potential Risk on Health and Immunity of Piglets
(2022)The objective of the present study was to evaluate the potential risks of the four commercial PRRS-1 MLV vaccines in pregnant vaccinated gilts at the last stage of gestation under field conditions. The study was conducted ... -
Highly Dynamic Exon Shuffling in Candidate Pathogen Receptors ... What if Brown Algae Were Capable of Adaptive Immunity?
(2012)Pathogen recognition is the first step of immune reactions. In animals and plants, direct or indirect pathogen recognition is often mediated by a wealth of fast-evolving receptors, many of which contain ligand-binding and ... -
The hygiene hypothesis and evolutionary medicine
(2014)The hygiene hypothesis is an explanatory model for increases in the incidence of chronic inflammatory disorders which have become much more prevalent in developed countries during recent last decades. Accumulating evidence ... -
IL-33/ST2 axis in organ fibrosis
(2018)Interleukin 33 (IL-33) is highly expressed in barrier sites, acting via the suppression of tumorigenicity 2 receptor (ST2). IL-33/ST2 axis has long been known to play a pivotal role in immunity and cell homeostasis by ... -
Immune response to the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 vaccines: Is it sustained in the diabetes population?
(2022)[No abstract available] -
Mammary defences and immunity against mastitis in sheep
(2019)The objectives of this review paper are to present udder defences, including teat of the udder, mammary epithelial cells, leucocytes, immunoglobulins, complement systemand chemical antibacterial agents, to describe cooperation ... -
A model to account for the consequences of host nutrition on the outcome of gastrointestinal parasitism in sheep: Logic and concepts
(2007)A deterministic, dynamic simulation model is developed to account for the interactions between gastrointestinal parasitism and host nutrition, and predict their consequences on performance and level of parasitism of sheep. ... -
p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (p38 MAPK)-mediated autoimmunity: Lessons to learn from ANCA vasculitis and pemphigus vulgaris
(2013)Evidence is beginning to accumulate that p38 mitogen activated protein kinase (p38 MAPK) signaling pathway plays an important role in the regulation of cellular and humoral autoimmune responses. The exact mechanisms and ... -
Pathogenetic Aspects of Systemic Sclerosis: A View Through the Prism of B Cells
(2022)Systemic sclerosis (SSc) is a rare fibrotic rheumatic disease, associated with psychological distress and increased morbidity and mortality due to skin involvement and internal organ damage. The current understanding of ... -
PBC triggers in water reservoirs, coal mining areas and waste disposal sites: From Newcastle to New York
(2010)Various environmental factors have been proposed as triggers of primary biliary cirrhosis (PBC), a progressive autoimmune cholestatic liver disease which is characterised by the destruction of the small intrahepatic bile ... -
Rapid improvement of immunity to Teladorsagia circumcincta is achieved through a reduction in the demand for protein in lactating ewes
(2006)Protein supplementation can improve the resistance to parasites of periparturient ewes, as indicated by reduced nematode egg excretion and worm burdens. However, the rate at which this improvement can occur is largely ... -
Retrospective molecular and phenotypic analysis of poliovirus vaccine strains isolated in Greece
(2011)The live oral poliovirus vaccine (OPV) strains are genetically unstable, causing, in rare cases, vaccine-associated paralytic poliomyelitis. Reversions of the known attenuating mutations in OPV strains and intertypic ... -
