  • Outbreak of Sheeppox in Farmed Sheep in Kyrgystan: Histological, Eletron Micro- Scopical and Molecular Characterization
    Zurich Open Repository and Archive University of Zurich Main Library Strickhofstrasse 39 CH-8057 Zurich www.zora.uzh.ch Year: 2016 Outbreak of sheeppox in farmed sheep in Kyrgystan: Histological, eletron microscopical and molecular characterization Aldaiarov, N ; Stahel, A ; Nufer, L ; Jumakanova, Z ; Tulobaev, A ; Ruetten, M Abstract: INTRODUCTION On a farm in the Kyrgyz Republic, several dead sheep were found without any history of illness. The sheep showed several ulcerations on lips and bare-skinned areas. At necropsy the lungs showed multiple firm nodules, which were defined as pox nodules histologically. Intherumen hyperkeratotic plaques were visible. With electron microscopy pox viral particles were detected and con- firmed with q PCR as Capripoxviruses. Although all members of the Capripoxvirus genus are eradicated in western countries, this study should remind us of the classical lesions observed in poxvirus infections.

    18 July 2013 EMA/481054/2013 Veterinary Medicines and Product Data Management Committee for Medicinal Products for Veterinary Use CVMP assessment report for APOQUEL (EMEA/V/C/002688/0000) International non-proprietary name: oclacitinib maleate Assessment report as adopted by the CVMP with all information of a commercially confidential nature deleted. 7 Westferry Circus ● Canary Wharf ● London E14 4HB ● United Kingdom Telephone +44 (0)20 7418 8400 Facsimile +44 (0)20 7418 8447 E -mail [email protected] Website www.ema.europa.eu An agency of the European Union © European Medicines Agency, 2013. Reproduction is authorised provided the source is acknowledged. Introduction The applicant Pfizer Animal Health S.A. submitted on 26 July 2012 an application for marketing authorisation to the European Medicines Agency (The Agency) for APOQUEL, through the centralised procedure falling within Article 3(2)(a) of Regulation (EC) No 726/2004 (new active substance). During the procedure the applicant changed to Zoetis Belgium S.A. The eligibility to the centralised procedure was confirmed by the CVMP on 12 January 2012 falling under Article 3(2)(a) of Regulation (EC) No 726/2004 as APOQUEL contains a new active substance which was not authorised in the Community on the date of entry into force of the Regulation. APOQUEL film-coated tablets contain oclacitinib (as oclacitinib maleate) as the active substance. There are three different strengths of the (film-coated) tablets, containing 3.6 mg, 5.4 mg and 16 mg oclacitinib (as the maleate salt), and each is contained in blister packs (polychlorotrifluoroethylene (PCTFE)/polyvinylchloride (PVC)/aluminium) which are supplied in outer cartons containing 20 or 100 tablets.

A GTPV isolate and a SPPV isolate were sequenced in a combined approach using nanopore MinION sequencing to obtain long reads and Illumina high throughput sequencing for short precise reads to gain full-length high-quality genome sequences. Concomitantly, sheep and goats were inoculated with SPPV and GTPV strains, respectively. During the animal trial, varying infection routes were compared: a combined intravenous and subcutaneous infection, an only intranasal infection, and the contact infection between naïve and inoculated animals. Sheep inoculated with SPPV showed no clinical signs, only a very small number of genome-positive samples and a low-level antibody reaction. In contrast, all GTPV inoculated or in-contact goats developed severe clinical signs with high viral genome loads observed in all tested matrices.

Did Eating Human Poop Play a Role in the Evolution of Dogs? The consumption of human feces may have influenced canine evolution. Posted Aug 24, 2020 Source: Photo by K. Thalhotter/123RF “Poop is central to the story of how dogs came into our lives," write Duke University dog researchers Brian Hare and Vanessa Woods in their wonderful new book, Survival of the Friendliest: Understanding Our Origins and Rediscovering Our Common Humanity. I think they may be right. Molly, our beloved Labrador retriever, certainly loved to eat poop. Sometimes she would chow down on her own feces, and at other times, she preferred excrement of the cows that lived behind our house. Mary Jean and I found this practice (coprophagia) disgusting. We were not alone. Ben Hart and his colleagues at the University of California at Davis School of Veterinary Medicine surveyed nearly 3,000 dog owners about their pet’s penchant for poop.

    IDENTIFICATION OF NOVEL TREATMENT APPROACHES FOR HUMAN AND CANINE OSTEOSARCOMA By Ya-Ting Yang A DISSERTATION Submitted to Michigan State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Comparative Medicine and Integrative Biology- Doctor of Philosophy 2020 ABSTRACT IDENTIFICATION OF NOVEL TREATMENT APPROACHES FOR HUMAN AND CANINE OSTEOSARCOMA By Ya-Ting Yang Osteosarcoma (OSA) is an aggressive neoplasm, characterized with high level of heterogeneity, high metastatic potential and poor prognosis in both humans and dogs. In this study, I used drug screening studies including existing therapeutic agents and novel compounds to identify more effective approaches to treat human and canine osteosarcoma. One of the challenges in the field of OSA is to identify optimal tools for study. A limited number of human and canine OSA cell lines are available. In this study, I established and characterized a new cell line, BZ, derived from a German shepherd dog with OSA and studied key oncogenic pathways in BZ. Our findings revealed activation of STAT3 and ERK pathways in BZ, as well as in a number of other cell lines, indicating that these two pathways are critical for cell survival and proliferation in OSA and the potential of using STAT3 and ERK inhibitors. Furthermore, I screened ten tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) on two dog and one human OSA cell lines. Among the selected TKIs, sorafenib showed promising results in effectively inhibited cell growth and migration in vitro studies. In addition, the effects of combing sorafenib with current chemotherapeutics (cisplatin, carboplatin, and doxorubicin) for OSA were investigated. Data from the combination index pointed to synergistic effects of sorafenib combined with doxorubicin and resulted in profound cell arrest at G2/M phase.

    Appendix B The following list represents 29 zoonotic/anthroponotic pathogens denoted as Grey-Zone Pathogens. These represent any pathogen where there is some evidence the dog is involved in transmission, maintenance or detection of the pathogen, but current research has not definitively proven the dog’s role at the time of this study. There were no sapronoses in this group. Of these pathogens, those that have been reported in Canada are marked with a 1. Those pathogens that have the potential to occur in Canada but have not yet been reported are marked with a 2.
