Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Within the last 10 years, the immune system of ruminants, especially T cells and their interactions with other cells, has been an important topic of study for veterinary immunologists and an area of interest for medical and fundamental immunologists. This book brings together all the latest data on ruminant cell-mediated immunology. In the first half of the book, leukocytes and their membrane molecules and cytokines are reviewed. Markers, tissue distribution, functional characterization, ontogeny, cytokines, and histocompatibility are covered in depth in separate chapters. In the second half of the book, cell-mediated immune responses against infectious diseases such as East Coast fever, infectious bovine rhinotracheitis, foot and mouth disease, maedi-visna, and gastrointestinal nematodes are analyzed. The application of cytokines to ruminants against infectious diseases is also reviewed.

Book excerpt: In short, all organ-systems are interrelated in a physiological as well as an immunological sense. While such interrelationships as the gut and mammary gland are very obvious, those involving other systems may be more subtle, but they are no less important and certainly not to be ignored. While scientists in ruminant immunology should have little trouble justifying their activities from an economic standpoint, such purely practical considerations alone should not dictate our desire to understand the basic mechanisms of the ruminant immune system. On the contrary, such an approach can be extremely dangerous. In every society and discipline, pursuit of knowledge for the sake of knowledge has its rightful place.

Download or read book Ruminant physiology written by K. Sejrsen and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2023-08-28 with total page 600 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book contains key contributions to the Xth International Symposium on Ruminant Physiology. Proceedings from past ISRP symposia have had a major influence on research and teaching in animal science over the years. Without a doubt the peer-reviewed chapters in this book, written by some of the best scientists in the field, will live up to this fine tradition. The chapters cover a wide range of topics spanning from digestion and absorption to metabolism, reproduction and lactation. Advancement of knowledge within important issues related to rumen fermentation, absorption mechanisms and splanchnic metabolism is treated in nine chapters. A number of chapters address the relationship between nutrition and gene expression illustrating important progress in scientific knowledge that can be obtained by applying the molecular biology methods to the field. Several chapters address the effects of nutrition on immunology and cover topics related to the health and welfare of production animals. In keeping with the increased attention on the relationship between food and human health, the book contains two important chapters on this topic.

This book was released on 2018-01-26 with total page 309 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The term “immunobiotics” has been proposed to define microbial strains able to beneficially regulate the mucosal immune system. Research in immunobiotics has significantly evolved as researchers employed cutting-edge technologies to investigate the complex interactions of these beneficial microorganisms with the immune system. During the last decade, our understanding of immunobiotics-host interaction was profoundly transformed by the discovery of microbial molecules and host receptors involved in the modulation of gut associated immune system, as well as the systemic and distant mucosal immune systems. In recent years, there has been a substantial increase in the number of reports describing the beneficial effects of immunobiotics in diseases such as intestinal and respiratory infections, allergy, inflammatory bowel disease, obesity, immunosuppression, and several other immune-mediated conditions. Evidence is also emerging of immunobiotics related molecules with immunomodulatory functions leading to the production of pharmabiotics, which may positively influence human or animal health. Therefore, research in immunobiotics continue to contribute not only to food but also medical and pharmaceutical fields. The compilation of research articles included in this ebook should help reader to have an overview of the recent advances in immunobiotics.
Download or read book Diagnosis and Control of Johne s Disease written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2003-08-13 with total page 243 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Johne's Disease is a chronic, progressive intestinal disease caused by infection with Mycobacterium avium subspecies paratuberculosis (Map) that affects primarily ruminant animals. In recent decades there has been growing concern over the lack of effective control of this disease and questions have arisen regarding the possibility that Map infection could be a cause of some cases of Crohn's disease in humans. This report presents a broad outline of the steps that should be taken to control Johne's disease, reduce the spread of Map, and minimize effects of the disease in animals. The report also describes the weaknesses of our current research agenda and provides recommendations for a new research strategy to resolve the question of whether there is a link between Johne's and Crohn's diseases.
Download or read book Aspects of the Immune Response in Ruminants to Four Protective Ehrlichia Ruminantium Gene Products written by Alri Pretorius and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 514 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the search for a better vaccine against Ehrlichia ruminantium infection in ruminants, four E. ruminantium open reading frames (ORFs) derived from the Welgevonden isolate were tested using either DNA vaccination or DNA primemodified viral or DNA prime-recombinant protein boost strategies. Both the DNA vaccination and the DNA prime.recombinant protein boost strategy provided complete protection against E. ruminantium Welgevonden needle challenge, while the DNA prime.modified viral boost strategy only provided 90 % protection. The DNA prime.recombinant protein boost strategy also coincided with elevated cellular immunology as was evident from increased IFN-a production. Furthermore, we could show that the 1H12 DNA vaccine could induce protection against heterologous needle challenge when animals were immunised with the Welgevonden-derived 1H12 ORFs and challenged with selected E. ruminantium stocks. Unfortunately the DNA only and the DNA prime.recombinant protein boost strategy were not protective in the field. Therefore, our results suggest that there is a vast difference between needle challenge and natural tick infestation and that E. ruminantium organisms transmitted by ticks have the ability to evade the protective immunity induced by immunization with the four 1H12 ORFs.
