The analysis of the data shows that the growth of roe deer from the eastern part of Greater Poland (Wielkopolska) is very similar to that of specimens from other areas in Poland. A comparison with excavated bone material revealed only slight and fluctuating differences. The roe deer from the areas to the west of Poland are larger and those from the areas to the east of the country are the largest.
Histophilus somni is an opportunistic pathogen causing respiratory, genitourinary and generalized infections in cattle. An important virulence factor is its ability to produce a biofilm. The aim of this work was to confirm that H. somni Hsp60 (Gro-EL) is a constituent of the biofilm produced by this bacterium in vitro and to check whether or not the presence of a specific antibody within the culture medium can inhibit biofilm production. Biofilm production by H. somni cultured in vitro was confirmed by crystalline violet staining. The presence of Hsp60 in the biofilm was confirmed by using specific antibodies produced in a mouse and goat hyperimmunized with H. somni recombinant Hsp60 (rHsp60). Large complexes of biofilm stained with Hsp60 antibodies were microscopically detected. This indicates that the Hsp60 protein is a common constituent of the biofilm produced by H. somni in vitro. In a second experiment, mouse serum containing anti- H. somni rHsp60 antibodies was added to an H. somni culture. It was found that the presence of anti-rHsp60 antibodies in the culture medium inhibited biofilm production in vitro. Only small biofilm particles were seen in the presence of the specific antibody, whereas in control cultures (without specific antiserum) large biofilm complexes were produced. The results indicate that antibodies specific to Hsp60 may be useful for preventing H. somni biofilm formation in vitro. If this also occurs in vivo, it may be helpful for eradicating H. somni infection in cattle through the elimination of carriers. Further in vivo studies are needed to confirm this idea.
The aim of the study was to optimize conditions for producing Salmonella Enteritidis recombinant heat shock protein 60 (rHsp60). Seven Escherichia coli host strains (Rosetta, Turner, C41, C43, Origami, BL21pLys, Rosetta pLys) were transformed by a recombinant plasmid containing Hsp60 gene from Salmonella Enteritidis, and then cultured and induced by isopropyl-β-D-thiogalactopyranoside (IPTG). The highest S. Enteritidis rHsp60 yield was obtained using E. coli strain C41. Induction of this strain using IPTG allowed the yield 400 μg of S. Enteritidis Hsp60 protein/2L of culture, but by autoinduction the yield exceeded 800 μg/2L.
During the years 1993-2005 232 dogs suspected of autoimmune mediated diseases (18 cases in years 1993-2001; 17 in 2002; 48 in 2003; 90 in 2004 and 59 in 2005) were examined. Detection of anti-erythrocyte antibodies was performed on 213 vein blood samples using Coombs test. Antinuclear antibodies (ANA) were estimated in 124 and circulating immune complexes (CIC) in 96 serum samples. In 13 cases immunohistochemical examination of skin or inner organ sections was done. The described methods were utilized in the diagnosis and treatment monitoring of immune mediated hemolytic anemia (IMHA) and systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) cases. The frequency of positive results was estimated in clinically defined cases. Over 71% SLE or SLE-suspected patients presented positive ANA results, and all of them had elevated concentrations of CIC. In cases of IMHA/suspected IMHA, about 78% showed positive Coombs test while IgG class titers mostly exceeded 1:640.
