MILLER Department of Pathology, College of Veterinary Medicine, University of Tennessee,Knoxville, TN (LM, JWK, JEW); and Department of Animal Health, St. Louis Zoological Park, St. Louis, MO (REM) Abstract. The histopathology, clinical presentation, and epidemiology of a cutaneous and oral mucosal disease affecting 40 black rhinoceroses (Diceros bicomis) at 21 zoological parks (50% of the captive US population) were investigated. Twenty-seven biopsies were examined from recent lesions, and clinical infor- mation was available from 127 episodes.The cutaneous lesions began as plaques that progressedto vesicles, bullae, or ulcers. Lesions waxed and waned in individual cases.Lesions were predominantly bilaterally sym- metrical, affecting pressurepoints, coronary bands, tips of the ears and tail, and along the lateral body wall and dorsum. Oral lesions were first noticed as ulcers and were present on the lateral margins of the tongue, palate, and mucocutaneousjunctions of the lips. All recent lesions had similar histopathologic findings of prominent acanthosis,hydropic degenerationof keratinocytes in the stratum spinosum,spongiosis, intraepithelial vesicles, and parakeratosiswithout dermal inflammation. Chronic lesions were ulcerated. No pathogens were identified by culture or electron microscopy. Most episodescoincided with stressevents

  • A Retrospective Study of Idiopathic Ulcerative Dermatitis in Mice with a C57BL/6 Background
    Journal of the American Association for Laboratory Animal Science Vol 45, No 6 Copyright 2006 November 2006 by the American Association for Laboratory Animal Science Pages 8-12 Reports A Retrospective Study of Idiopathic Ulcerative Dermatitis in Mice with a C57BL/6 Background Robin J Kastenmayer,* Michele A Fain, and Kathy A Perdue Idiopathic ulcerative dermatitis is a well-recognized disease in C57BL mice and related strains. This disease manifests as a pruritic dermatitis with resulting self-mutilation, dermal ulceration, necrosis, and fibrosis. Ulcerative dermatitis has the ability to confound ongoing research by causing systemic pathologic changes, such as lymphadenopathy and splenomegaly. Although various treatments have been described, none has been curative consistently; therefore, minimizing negative effects on research through prevention of disease is ideal. To identify etiologic factors, we conducted a 2-y retrospective study of 1352 mice with a C57BL/6 genetic background; these mice demonstrated an overall prevalence of 4.1% and a seasonal effect with a peak incidence during midsummer. Corroborating previous studies, our study revealed a disease predilection for female mice. In contrast to prior reports, the disease prevalence was greatest in 10- to 16-mo-old mice. In addition, mice with a C57BL/6 background that were deficient in the gene for inducible nitric oxide synthase had a 50% disease incidence, suggesting a potential animal model for further characterizing the pathogenesis, prevention, and treatment of ulcerative dermatitis.

  • Ulcerative Dermatitis in C57BL/6 Mice
    AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Jennifer L. Sargent for the degree of Master of Science in Veterinary Science presented on June 2, 2015 Title: Ulcerative Dermatitis in C57BL/6 Mice Abstract approved: ______________________________________________________________________________ Helen E. Diggs Abstract Ulcerative dermatitis (UD) is a common condition in C57BL/6 mice that is poorly understood and challenging to treat. Inconsistently there have been reports of an increased incidence of the disease in female mice, mice exposed to certain diets, mice of advanced age, and in several seasons. These inconsistencies indicated a need for a systematic review to better assess the evidence for commonly cited UD risk factors and treatments. The aims for the systematic review were to assess the quality of evidence for both: 1) commonly cited risk factors for UD, specifically sex, age, season, and diet; and 2) reported UD treatments. A search of three electronic databases was performed and articles were evaluated using previously published criteria for assessing methodological quality. Dietary factors, particularly caloric restriction, appear to have an effect on UD risk. Female sex was associated with an increased risk of UD in some studies, particularly diet studies, but not in others. Also, UD was seen most commonly in mice between 14 and 24 months of age in the studies reviewed. The role of season was not assessed in any of the articles that met the inclusion criteria. Of the three publications that evaluated UD treatments only one had an untreated or alternative therapy control. Further research is needed to explore epidemiologic aspects of UD and to compare treatment options.

The purpose of this article is to review the allergic reactions reported in the published literature to aminoglycoside antibiotics. A thorough PubMed search was conducted and excluded non-allergic adverse reactions to aminoglycosides. Allergic reactions to aminoglycosides occur infrequently, but can include cutaneous reactions as well as systemic reactions, including anaphylaxis. Of the evaluated aminoglycosides, gentamicin had the most reported allergic reactions, including the most reports of anaphylaxis, followed by tobramycin, and then amikacin. Most reports of allergic reactions occurred in patients who had a prior exposure to some dosage form of an aminoglycoside. Cross-reactivity among aminoglycosides is common and occurs due to the similarities in their chemical structures. Desensitization protocols to tobramycin have been described in the literature. Keywords: aminoglycosides; allergy; hypersensitivity; gentamicin; tobramycin; amikacin 1. Introduction Antibiotics are one of the most common causes of life-threatening medication allergies [1].

  • Ulcerative Dermatitis in Mice
    Ulcerative Dermatitis in Mice Background Ulcerative dermatitis (UD) is a common idiopathic non-infectious skin condition in mice that is characterized by hair loss, skin redness and itching that rapidly progresses to excoriation and ulceration of the skin as a result of self-trauma.1 Due to the potential discomfort and pain associated with this condition and its high prevalence, UD is considered one of the most important welfare issues in lab mice.1,2 Etiology & Risk Factors While the exact etiology of UD is still unknown, recent literature suggests it may be a type I hypersensitivity response.3,4 The condition has been associated with various other pathologic processes.5-7 Risk factors for the development of UD include:1 C57BL/6 genetic background Increasing age – median age of onset is approximately 15 months8 Sex – earlier onset and higher prevalence in females9 High-fat diet consumption Changes in humidity Investigators planning studies using C57BL/6-background mice, especially aging studies, should anticipate that UD lesions may develop in approximately 20% of the mice8,10 and may require pharmacologic treatment or euthanasia. Management Early recognition and intervention is key for successfully managing UD cases. Lab personnel who are regularly handling their mice may be in the best position to identify early UD lesions that have a good prognosis for recovery. Report any health concerns to DCM for further evaluation so that we may assess the animal and recommend appropriate treatment(s). When DCM veterinary staff diagnose UD, they will assign a severity score and recommend treatment according to the table below.

Dear Friends and colleagues, We are very happy to welcome you to Valencia, “The City of Light and Flowers” for this 26th Annual Congress of the European Society and College of Veterinary Dermatology. As for previous European dermatology congresses, the Scientifi c Organizing Committee has organized two separate lecture tracks: the Continuing Education Program (which is to be simultaneously interpreted from English to Spanish) has lectures on the diagnosis and treatment of the main alopecic and pruritic dermatoses while the Advanced Program was set with high level lectures about the skin barrier, topical therapy, itch and autoimmune skin diseases. As for the 2011 congress, we have reserved a third room for expanded oral and poster short communication theme-based sessions. The Local Organizing Committee chose the city of Valencia because of its luminosity and strategic situation next to the Mediterranean Sea. This location provides all of us, clinicians and scientists alike, with the possibility to expand beyond veterinary dermatology to meet an ancient culture, to be exposed to the sun (hopefully) and to taste the wonderfully famous local gastronomy.
