ABSTRACT The limited temporal completeness and taxonomic accuracy of species lists, made available in a traditional manner in scientific publications, has always represented a problem. These lists are invariably limited to a few taxonomic groups and do not represent up-to-date knowledge of all species and classifications. In this context, the Brazilian megadiverse fauna is no exception, and the Catálogo Taxonômico da Fauna do Brasil (CTFB) (http://fauna.jbrj.gov.br/), made public in 2015, represents a database on biodiversity anchored on a list of valid and expertly recognized scientific names of animals in Brazil. The CTFB is updated in near real time by a team of more than 800 specialists. By January 1, 2024, the CTFB compiled 133,691 nominal species, with 125,138 that were considered valid. Most of the valid species were arthropods (82.3%, with more than 102,000 species) and chordates (7.69%, with over 11,000 species). These taxa were followed by a cluster composed of Mollusca (3,567 species), Platyhelminthes (2,292 species), Annelida (1,833 species), and Nematoda (1,447 species). All remaining groups had less than 1,000 species reported in Brazil, with Cnidaria (831 species), Porifera (628 species), Rotifera (606 species), and Bryozoa (520 species) representing those with more than 500 species. Analysis of the CTFB database can facilitate and direct efforts towards the discovery of new species in Brazil, but it is also fundamental in providing the best available list of valid nominal species to users, including those in science, health, conservation efforts, and any initiative involving animals. The importance of the CTFB is evidenced by the elevated number of citations in the scientific literature in diverse areas of biology, law, anthropology, education, forensic science, and veterinary science, among others. publications problem uptodate up date classifications context exception (CTFB http//fauna.jbrj.gov.br/, httpfaunajbrjgovbr http //fauna.jbrj.gov.br/ , jbrj gov br (http://fauna.jbrj.gov.br/) 2015 Brazil 80 specialists 1 2024 133691 133 691 133,69 125138 125 138 125,13 82.3%, 823 82 3 (82.3% 102000 102 000 102,00 7.69%, 769 7 69 (7.69% 11000 11 11,00 . 3,567 3567 567 (3,56 2,292 2292 2 292 (2,29 1,833 1833 833 (1,83 1,447 1447 447 (1,44 1000 1,00 831 (83 628 (62 606 (60 520 (52 50 users science health biology law anthropology education others http//fauna.jbrj.gov.br/ faunajbrjgovbr //fauna.jbrj.gov.br (http://fauna.jbrj.gov.br/ 201 8 202 13369 13 133,6 12513 12 125,1 82.3% (82.3 10200 10 00 102,0 7.69% 76 6 (7.69 1100 11,0 3,56 356 56 (3,5 2,29 229 29 (2,2 1,83 183 83 (1,8 1,44 144 44 (1,4 100 1,0 (8 62 (6 60 52 (5 5 http//fauna.jbrj.gov.br (http://fauna.jbrj.gov.br 20 1336 133, 1251 125, 82.3 (82. 1020 0 102, 7.69 (7.6 110 11, 3,5 35 (3, 2,2 22 (2, 1,8 18 (1, 1,4 14 4 ( 82.

Abstract Background: The prevalence of urolithiasis is 7-10% and has increased over the past years. Simple nephrectomy is, therefore, indicated when renal exclusion is associated with recurrent urinary tract infections and/or chronic pain. Objective: The aim of the study was to describe the surgical experience of laparoscopic nephrectomy (LPN) due to urolithiasis in Mexican South-east and which factors can predispose conversion to open surgery. Methods: This was a retrospective study including patients with renal exclusion secondary to urolithiasis, who underwent laparoscopic simple nephrectomy between 2016 and 2019. Results: Forty simple LPN for renal exclusion due to urolithiasis was performed between 2016 and 2019. Mean age was 47 ± 10.8 and 82.5% were female. The mean BMI was 30.2 ± 5 kg/m2, mean operative time was 165.2 ± 64. Conversion rate was 12.5% (n = 5). Conversion was significantly associated with abnormal hilum vascular anatomy (p = 0.001), hilum adherences (p = 0.001), and hydronephrosis (p = 0.001). Conclusion: LPN is a safe surgical technique for renal exclusion due to urolithiasis. Hydronephrosis, abnormal vascular anatomy, and the adherences that involved de hilum are the factors that could predictive conversion to open surgery.
Resumen Introducción: La prevalencia the urolitiasis es del 7-10% sin embargo a presentado un incremento del numero de casos en los ultimos años. La nefrectomia simple laparoscopica esta indicada en pacientes con exclusión renal asociado a cuadros repetitivos de infecciones en el tracto urinario y o dolor cronico a nivel fosa renal. Objetivo: Describir la experiencia de nefrectomia simple laparoscopica en pacientes con exclusion renal secundario litiasis en un hospital del sur de México, y que factores pueden predisponer la conversión a cirugia abierta. Materials y metodos: Estudio restrospectivo que incluyo pacientes con exclusion renal secundario a urolitiasis durante el periodo comprendido entre 2016 y 2019. Resultados: Se realizaron 40 nefrectomias simples laparoscopica durante el periodo comprendido 2016 y 2019 en paciente con exclusion renal asociada a litiasis. La media edad 47 ± 10.8 años, el 82.5% de los pacientes fueron del sexo femenino. La media de Indice de masa corporal fue de 30.2 ± 5 kg/m2, La tasa de conversion fue del 12.5% (n = 5), los factores que se asociaron a conversion a cirugia abierta fueron anormalidades dependientes del hilio vascular renal (p = 0.001)., adherencias dependientes del hilio renal (p = 0.001). e hidronefrosis (p = 0.001). Conclusión: La nefrectomia simple laparocopica es un procedimiento seguro en pacienres con exclusion renal secundaria a urolitiasis. Hidronefrosis, anormalidades dependientes del hilio vascular renal y adherencias que involucren el hilio renal son factores que pueden predisponer conversion a cirugia abierta.

RESUMEN La roya amarilla del trigo, causada por Puccinia striiformis f. sp. tritici, ha evolucionado rápidamente en los últimos años, ocasionando pérdidas económicas importantes en trigo harinero (Triticum aestivum L.) y macarronero (Triticum durum D.). El manejo de P. striiformis se basa en la resistencia genética, que constituye el método más económico y ambientalmente seguro. El objetivo de la presente investigación fue estimar el número de genes que condicionan la resistencia a P. striiformis en los genotipos de trigo harinero PI250413 y C591 e identificar la presencia o ausencia de los genes Yr46 y Yr67. Se generaron familias F3, F4 y F5 provenientes de la cruza Apav × PI250413 y la F3 de la cruza PI250413 × C591, mismas que fueron evaluadas bajo condiciones de campo e invernadero durante 2019 y 2020. Epidemias artificiales se crearon utilizando la raza MEX14.191 de P. striifomis. El número de genes se estimó con el uso de proporciones fenotípicas. La presencia de los genes se corroboró con marcadores moleculares SNP. El comportamiento de las familias en planta adulta y el análisis de X2 indicó la presencia de dos a tres genes. Las frecuencias de las distribuciones observadas en plántula se ajustaron a la segregación de un gen. Los resultados indicaron que PI250413 y C591 poseen resistencia de tipo cuantitativa y cualitativa. El análisis molecular confirmó la presencia de Yr46 y Yr67 en los progenitores PI250413 y C591. La combinación Yr46/Yr67 es efectiva tanto en plántula como en planta adulta y disminuye considerablemente los niveles de infección a casi inmunidad, por lo menos en PI250413 y C591; dichos genotipos son adecuados para usarse como progenitores en los programas de mejoramiento para lograr una resistencia durable a roya amarilla.
SUMMARY The yellow rust of wheat, caused by Puccinia striiformis f. sp. tritici, has evolved rapidly in recent years, causing significant economic losses in bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) and durum wheat (Triticum durum D.). Management of P. striifomis is based on genetic resistance, which is the most economical and environmentally safe method. The objective of this research was to estimate the number of genes that condition resistance to P. striiformis in the bread wheat genotypes PI250413 and C591 and to identify the presence or absence of genes Yr46 and Yr67. F3 , F4 and F5 families were generated from the Apav × PI250413 cross and the F3 of the PI250413 × C591 cross, which were evaluated under field and greenhouse conditions during 2019 and 2020. Artificial epidemics were created using the MEX14.191 race of P. striifomis. The number of genes was estimated by using the phenotypic ratios. The presence of the genes was corroborated with SNP molecular markers. The behavior of the families in adult plant and the analysis of X2 indicated the presence of two to three genes. The frequencies of the distributions observed at seedling stage were adjusted to the segregation of one gene. Results indicated that PI250413 and C591 have quantitative and qualitative resistance. Molecular analysis confirmed the presence of Yr47 and Yr67 in parents PI250413 and C591. The Yr46/Yr67 combination is effective both in seedlings and in adult plants and considerably decreases infection levels to almost immunity at least in PI250413 and C591; these genotypes are suitable for use as parents in breeding programs to achieve durable resistance to yellow rust.

RESUMO: Foi realizado um estudo retrospectivo das infecções por poxvírus diagnosticadas em bovinos do estado de Goiás (GO), entre 2010 e 2018. Todos os casos foram investigados pela Agência Goiana de Defesa Agropecuária (Agrodefesa). Foram revisados formulários técnicos e protocolos de laboratórios de diagnóstico veterinário. Na maioria dos casos, amostras de tecidos orais ou cutâneos e/ou swabs foram encaminhadas para diagnóstico virológico. Foram notificados 37 surtos/casos de doença vesicular em bovinos em 25 municípios; em 33 casos os animais apresentavam lesões clinicamente compatíveis com poxvírus. A etiologia de 25 de 33 surtos/casos foi confirmada como poxvírus por PCR e/ou isolamento viral: 13 como vírus vaccínia (VACV), seis como vírus pseudocowpox (PCPV), cinco como vírus da estomatite papular bovina (BPSV) e um caso de coinfecção (VACV e um parapoxvírus semelhante ao Orf vírus). Os casos confirmados laboratorialmente ocorreram principalmente em bovinos leiteiros (19/25) e durante a estação seca (22/25). Em bovinos adultos, alterações macroscópicas foram observadas principalmente nas tetas e úbere e incluíram vesículas, úlceras, crostas, pápulas e cicatrizes e variaram quanto ao tipo, gravidade e região afetada, dependendo da espécie do poxvírus. Em bezerros, as principais lesões foram úlceras na boca e focinho. Lesões zoonóticas compatíveis com infecção por poxvírus foram observadas em todas as poxviroses diagnosticadas, afetando principalmente as mãos dos ordenhadores e outros trabalhadores rurais. Nossos dados demonstram a relevância sanitária e econômica dessas doenças e a ampla circulação de diferentes poxvírus em bovinos de GO.
ABSTRACT: A retrospective study of poxvirus infections diagnosed in cattle from Goiás state (GO), Brazil, from 2010 to 2018, was performed. All cases have been investigated by the GO Official Veterinary Service (Agrodefesa), from which technical forms and protocols of veterinary diagnosis laboratories were reviewed. In most cases, samples of oral or cutaneous tissues and/or swabs were submitted for virological diagnosis by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and/or virus isolation. Thirty seven outbreaks/cases of vesicular disease were notified in cattle of 25 counties; in 33 cases the animals presented lesions clinically compatible with poxviruses. The etiology of 25 out of 33 outbreaks/cases was confirmed as poxviruses by PCR and/or viral isolation: 13 as bovine vaccinia virus (VACV), six as pseudocowpox virus (PCPV), five as bovine papular stomatitis virus (BPSV) and one coinfection (VACV and an Orf virus-like parapoxvirus). The laboratory confirmed that cases occurred mainly in dairy cattle (19/25) and during the dry season (22/25). In adult cattle, gross changes were observed mainly in the teats and udder and included vesicles, ulcers, crusts, papules and scars and varied of type, severity and affected region, depending on the poxvirus species. In calves, the main lesions were ulcers in the mouth and muzzle. Zoonotic lesions compatible with poxvirus infections were observed for all diagnosed poxviruses, affecting especially the hands of milkers and other farm workers. Our data demonstrate the sanitary and economic relevance of these diseases and the wide circulation of different poxviruses in cattle from GO.

RESUMO: Os pestivírus HoBi-like (HoBiPeV) compõe um grupo novo de pestivírus de bovinos, genética e antigenicamente relacionados com os vírus da diarreia viral bovina 1 e 2 (BVDV-1, BVDV2). Dados recentes indicam que os HoBiPeV são endêmicos na população bovina do Brasil, mas as vacinas respiratórias e reprodutivas bovinas contêm apenas cepas de BVDV-1 e BVDV-2. O presente estudo investigou a atividade neutralizante contra estes pestivírus induzidas por duas vacinas comerciais (VA = atenuada, VI = inativada) e por três vacinas experimentais replicativas (VAC1 = monovalente, BVDV-1; VAC2 = bivalente, BVDV-1 + BVDV-2; VAC3 = trivalente, BVDV-1 + BVDV-2 e HoBiPeV). Bezerros soronegativos foram imunizados uma vez (vacinas replicativas) ou duas (vacina inativada) e amostras de soro foram testadas por vírus-neutralização (VN) 30 dias após a vacinação (dpv) (vacinas replicativas) ou 30 dias após a segunda dose (VI). Títulos neutralizantes ≥60 foram considerados indicativos de proteção contra doença clínica. Nesta data, a VA induziu títulos protetivos contra o BVDV-2 em 7/7 animais (GMT=289,8) e contra BVDV-1 e HoBiPeV em 5/7 animals (GMTs=97,5 e 80, respectivamente). VI induziu títulos protetores contra BVDV-1 em 1/7 animal (GMT=16,4), em 2/7 animais contra BVDV-2 (GMT=53,8) e em nenhum contra HoBiPeV (GMT=12,2). Quando um pool de soro de cada grupo vacinal foi testado frente a isolados Brasileiros, a VA induziu títulos protetores contra 3/7 isolados de BVDV-1, 9/10 (BVDV-2) e 1/8 (HoBiPeV); VI induziu títulos protetores em 1/7 contra BVDV-1, 1/10 (BVDV-2) e em nenhum (0/8) contra isolados de HoBiPeV. A VAC1 induziu títulos protetores contra BVDV-1 em 9/9 animais (GMT=320) mas em nenhum animal contra BVDV-2 ou HoBiPeV (GMT<10). VAC2 induziu títulos protetores contra BVDV-1e BVDV-2 em 9/9 animais (GMTs=160 e 640, respectivamente),e contra HoBiPeV em 7/9 animais (GMT=108,5). Finalmente, VAC3 induziu títulos protetores em todos os animais contra BVDV-1 (GMT=234,3), BVDV-2 (294,9) e HoBiPeV (201,1). No teste de pool de soro contra isolados de pestivírus, VAC1 induziu títulos ≥60 contra 4/7 BVDV-1 mas contra nenhum isolado de BVDV-2/HoBiPeV; VAC2 induziu títulos protetores contra 4/7 BVDV-1; 10/10 BVDV-2 e 2/8 HoBiPeV; VAC3 induziu títulos protetores contra todos BVDV-1, BVDV-2 e HoBiPeV. Esses resultados indicam que vacinas contendo apenas BVDV-1 BVDV-2, especialmente aquelas inativadas, podem não conferir resposta sorológica protetora contra vários isolados de HoBiPeV. Portanto, a necessidade de se incluir cepas de HoBiPeV nas vacinas deve ser considerada.
ABSTRACT: HoBi-like pestiviruses (HoBiPeV) constitute a novel group of bovine pestiviruses, genetically and antigenically related to bovine viral diarrhea virus 1 (BVDV-1) and BVDV-2. Recent data shows that HoBiPeV are endemic among Brazilian cattle, yet bovine reproductive/respiratory vaccines contain only BVDV-1 and BVDV-2 strains. The present study investigated the neutralizing antibody response against these pestiviruses induced by two commercial vaccines (VA = attenuated, VI = inactivated) and by three experimental, replicative, vaccine formulations (VAC1 = monovalent, BVDV-1; VAC2 = bivalent, BVDV-1 + BVDV-2; VAC3 = trivalent, BVDV-1 + BVDV-2 and HoBiPeV). Seronegative beef calves were immunized once (replicative vaccines) or twice (inactivated vaccine) and serum samples were tested by virus-neutralization (VN) 30 days after vaccination (dpv) (replicative vaccines) or 30 days after the second dose (VI). We considered a threshold VN titer of ≥60 indicative of protection against clinical disease. At 30 dpv, VA induced protective titers against BVDV-2 in 7/7 animals (GMT=289.8) and against BVDV-1 and HoBiPeV in 5/7 animals (GMTs=97.5 and 80, respectively). VI induced protective titers against BVDV-1 in 1/7 animal (GMT=16.4), 2/7 animals against BVDV-2 (GMT=53.8) and in none of the calves against HoBiPeV (GMT=12.2). When a pool of sera of each vaccine group was tested against individual Brazilian isolates, VA induced protective titers against 3/7 BVDV-1 isolates, to 9/10 (BVDV-2) and 1/8 (HoBiPeV); VI induced protective titers against 1/7 (BVDV-1), 1/10 (BVDV-2) and none (0/8) HoBiPeV isolates. The experimental vaccine VAC1 induced protective titers against BVDV-1 in 9/9 animals (GMT=320) but in no animal against BVDV-2 or HoBiPeV (GMT<10). VAC2 induced protective titers to BVDV-1 and BVDV-2 in 9/9 animals (GMTs=160 and 640, respectively), and against HoBiPeV in 7/9 animals (GMT=108.5). Finally, VAC3 induced protective titers in all animals against BVDV-1 (GMT=234.3), BVDV-2 (294.9) and HoBiPeV (201.1). Testing the pool of sera against pestivirus isolates, VAC1 induced titers ≥ 60 against 4/7 BVDV-1 but to none BVDV-2/HoBiPeV isolate; VAC2 induced protective titers against 4/7 BVDV-1; 10/10 BVDV-2 and 2/8 HoBiPeV; VAC3 induced protective titers against all BVDV-1, BVDV-2 and HoBiPeV isolates. These results indicate that vaccines composed by BVDV-1+BVDV-2, especially those containing inactivated virus, may not induce serological response against a variety of HoBiPeV isolates. Thus, the need of inclusion of HoBiPeV in vaccine formulations should be considered.

ABSTRACT A large amount of discarded tire waste generated year after year has encouraged the scientific community to seek alternatives for recycling or reusing this waste. The cross-linked nature and the high number of additives in tires make recycling significantly difficult. Thus, the use of particulate rubber as filler for other materials such as concrete has emerged as an attractive alternative. However, the hydrophobic nature of the rubber and hydrophilic particles of cement decreases the compatibility at the cementitious matrix-rubber interface, affecting the concrete's final performance. This work presents a method based on hydrogen peroxide and Fenton for the oxidation of rubber particles from end-of-life tires to introduce hydrophilic groups on the surface of the particles to improve compatibility at the interface. The method was studied from an experimental design approach based on the infrared spectroscopy response and using a Rechtschaffner Resolution V design, PCA and PLSR in order to evaluate variables such as time, temperature and reactants. The concentration of H2O2 and reaction temperature was shown to increase the oxidation, while Fenton reduces the time of oxidation.

La dispersión es el transporte de las semillas desde el individuo parental hacia otro lugar, donde idealmente puedan establecerse. Existen varias formas de clasificar los síndromes de dispersión y se basan en características morfológicas que están adaptadas al vector de transporte (biótico o abiótico). Este estudio tiene por objetivo evaluar la distribución de frecuencias de los síndromes de dispersión de semillas a lo largo del gradiente altitudinal del valle de La Paz (W Bolivia). Utilizando la lista de especies del valle, se completó la información de los síndromes que presentan las especies y se relacionó su frecuencia con la altitud y el hábito de crecimiento, postulando que los pisos de mayor altitud, que presentarían mayor porcentaje de herbáceas, mostrarán predominancia de dispersión autocórica. Los resultados mostraron que existe un efecto de los pisos altitudinales y el hábito sobre el síndrome de dispersión, según una comparación de modelos (AIC 3077.3 Wi1). La anemocoria fue más frecuente a mayor altitud (65.6%), también se encontró mayor porcentaje de especies con dispersión zoocórica a altitud intermedia y baja (montano, altimontano y andino inferior). La mayor frecuencia de anemocoria fue para especies herbáceas (>50%) y se halló un incremento de zoocoria para las leñosas (arbustos y árboles) con ca. 55%. Es posible postular que nuestros resultados estén explicados, al menos en parte, por la menor disponibilidad de animales dispersores (aves, mamíferos, u otros vertebrados) a mayor altitud.
Seed dispersal is the movement of seeds from the parental individual to another place, where ideally it can be established. Dispersal syndromes can be categorized in several ways, based upon the vector (biotic or abiotic). This study aimed at analyzing the frequency distribution of seed dispersal syndromes along an altitudinal gradient in the La Paz valley (W Bolivia). Based on the list of plant species for this valley, we completed the information on the dispersal syndrome for those species we were able to gather adequate data and related their frequency with elevation and habit. predicting that the higher altitude regions, which will also present more herbaceous species, will show a greater predominance of autocoric species. Results show an effect of elevation and growth habit on the dispersal syndromes based on model comparison (AIC 3077.3 Wi1). The frequency of anemochory was greater at higher altitude (65.6%), we also found that zoochory was more frequent at intermedíate and low ("montano, altimontano & andino inferior altitudinal") regions. On the other hand, a higher frequency of anemochory was found within herbaceous species (>50%) and also an increase in zoochory for woody (shrubs and trees) with ca. 55%. It is safe to pose that our results can be explained, at least partially, by the lower availability of animal vectors (birds, mammals, or others) at higher altitude.

RESUMO: Testes reprodutivos em bovinos são de grande importância econômica, dado o impacto que podem ter no sistema de produção e podem ser causados por agentes. O Neospora caninum e o vírus da Diarreia Viral Bovina (BVDV) são considerados de grande importância como reprodutivos e devem ser considerados responsáveis por manter os animais persistentemente infectados. O presente estudo incluiu 479 amostras de soro de bezerro para exportação no estado do Rio Grande do Sul (RS). Todas as amostras foram rastreadas para BVDV por um antígeno ELISA. As amostras de ELISA positivas para o antigénio BVDV foram isoladas a partir de BVDV em cultura de células. Uma técnica de imunofluorescência indireta (IFT) foi utilizada para detectar anticorpos anti-N caninum. Das 479 amostras de soro tratadas para exportação, 361 foram positivas para antígenos de BVDV por ELISA e/ou teste de isolamento viral (361/479-75,36%) e 109 amostras positivas para IFT para N. caninum (109/479-22,75%). Apesar da detecção de anticorpos anti-N. caninum não diferiu estatisticamente entre animais infectados naturalmente BVDV e não BVDV sugerindo que não há interferência da infecção pelo BVDV na infecção ou taxa de detecção de animais com N. caninum, animais positivos em isolamento viral e alta DO em BVDV-Ag ELISA, pode apresentar doença ativa e consequente imunossupressão, contribuindo para uma potencial reativação de N. caninum.
ABSTRACT: Reproductive tests in cattle are of great economic importance, given the impact it can have on the production system and may be caused by agents. Neospora caninum and Bovine Viral Diarrhea virus (BVDV) are considered of great importance as reproductive and should be considered responsible for keeping animals persistently infected. The present study included 479 calf serum samples for export in the state of Rio Grande do Sul (RS). All samples were screened for BVDV by an ELISA antigen. BVDV antigen-positive ELISA samples were isolated from BVDV in cell culture. An indirect immunofluorescence (IFT) technique was used to detect anti-N. caninum antibodies. Of the 479 export-treated serum samples, 361 were positive for BVDV antigens by ELISA and/or viral isolation test (361/479-75.36%), and 109 IFT-positive samples for N. caninum (109/479-22.75%). Despite detection of antibodies anti-N. caninum did not differ statistically between naturally infected BVDV and non-BVDV infected animals suggesting that there is no interference of BVDV infection on infection or detection rate of animals with N. caninum, positive animals in viral isolation and high DO in BVDV-Ag ELISA. may present active disease and consequent immunosuppression, contributing to a potential reactivation of N. caninum.

RESUMO: O alfaherpesvírus bovino 2 (BoHV-2) é um agente etiológico da mamilite herpética (BHM), uma doença cutânea e autolimitante do úbere e tetos de vacas. Pouco se sabe sobre a patogênese do BoHV-2, dificultando o desenvolvimento de medicamentos terapêuticos e vacinas. Este estudo investigou a patogênese do BoHV-2 em bezerros após a inoculação por diferentes vias. Bezerros soronegativos de três a quatro meses foram inoculados com BoHV-2 (107TCID50.mL-1) por via intramuscular (IM, n=4), por via intravenosa (IV, n=4) ou transdérmica (TD, n=4) após escarificação leve e submetidos a monitoramento virológico, clínico e sorológico. Os bezerros inoculados pela via IV apresentaram aumento leve da temperatura corporal entre os dias 6 a 9 pós-inoculação (pi). A inoculação do vírus pela via TD resultou em lesões inflamatórias leves nos locais de inoculação, caracterizadas por hiperemia, pequenas vesículas, exsudação leve e formação de crostas, entre os dias 2 e 8pi. O vírus ou DNA viral foi detectado por PCR nas crostas/swabs coletados de lesões de 3 de 4 animais inoculados TD do dia 2 ao 8pi. Viremia foi detectada em 3/4 dos animais do grupo IM (do dia 4 ao 8pi); em 2/4 animais do grupo IV (dias 6 e 8pi), mas não no grupo TD. Bezerros de todos os grupos inoculados soroconverteram o BoHV-2 em títulos de 4 a 64, conforme indicado por ensaios de vírus-neutralização (VN) realizados em soro coletado no dia 15pi. Administração de dexametasona (Dex) nos bezerros inoculados no dia 48pi, não resultou em reativação do vírus, como indicado pela falta de detecção de vírus no sangue e/ou nos locais de inoculação e pela ausência de aumento nos títulos de anticorpos. Estes resultados demonstraram que o BoHV-2 foi capaz de replicar eficientemente em bezerros seguindo diferentes vias de inoculação, produziu viremia após a inoculação IM e IV e não foi reativado pelo tratamento com Dex.
ABSTRACT: Bovine alphaherpesvirus 2 (BoHV-2) is the agent of herpetic mammilitis (BHM), a cutaneous and self-limiting disease affecting the udder and teats of cows. The pathogenesis of BoHV-2 is pourly understood, hampering the development of therapeutic drugs, vaccines and other control measures. This study investigated the pathogenesis of BoHV-2 in calves after inoculation through different routes. Three- to four-months seronegative calves were inoculated with BoHV-2 (107TCID50.mL-1) intramuscular (IM, n=4), intravenous (IV, n=4) or transdermal (TD) after mild scarification (n=4) and submitted to virological, clinical and serological monitoring. Calves inoculated by the IV route presented as light increase in body temperature between days 6 to 9 post-inoculation (pi). Virus inoculation by the TD route resulted in mild inflammatory lesions at the sites of inoculation, characterized by hyperemia, small vesicles, mild exudation and scab formation, between days 2 and 8pi. Virus or viral DNA was detected by PCR in the crusts/swabs collected from lesions of 3 out of 4 animals inoculated TD from day 2 to 8pi. Viremia was detected in 3/4 animals of the IM group (from day 4 to 8pi); in 2/4 animals of the IV group (days 6 and 8pi) but not in the TD group. Calves from all inoculated groups seroconverted to BoHV-2 in titers from 4 to 64, as indicated by virus-neutralizing (VN) assays performed in sera collected at day 15pi. Administration of dexamethasone (Dex) to the inoculated calves at day 48pi, did not result in virus reactivation as indicated by lack of virus detection in the blood and/or in inoculation sites and no increase in VN antibody titers. These results demonstrated that BoHV-2 was able to replicate efficiently in calves following different routes of exposure, produced viremia after IM and IV inoculation and was not reactivated by Dex treatment.

RESUMO: A identificação da diversidade de pestivírus bovinos que circulam no campo é fundamental para a avaliação contínua dos testes de diagnóstico e composição de vacina. Neste artigo, realizamos a caracterização genética e antigênica de doze pestivírus bovinos isolados na região oeste do Rio Grande do Sul, Brasil. Os vírus foram isolados de soros de fetos bovinos ou de animais com apresentações clínicas sugestivas de infecção por pestivírus. A caracterização genética por sequenciamento e análise filogenética da região 5’UTR do genoma viral permitiu a identificação do vírus da diarréia viral bovina (BVDV-1a, 4/12, 33,3%), BVDV-1b (6/12, 50%) e BVDV-2 (2/12, 16,7%). A reatividade dos isolados com um painel de anticorpos monoclonais criados contra proteínas do envelope (Erns, E1 e E2) demonstrou uma alta variabilidade antigênica entre os isolados. Assim, confirmou-se a circulação ativa da infecção por pestivírus bovino, com alta variabilidade genética e antigênica, em bovinos na fronteira oeste do RS, demonstrando a importância da contínua caracterização dos pestivírus circulantes em bovinos para manter atualizadas as medidas de diagnóstico e controle.
ABSTRACT: The identification of diversity of bovine pestiviruses circulating in the field is fundamental for continuous evaluation of diagnostic tests and vaccine composition. In this article we performed the genetic and antigenic characterization of twelve bovine pestiviruses isolated in the western region of Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil. The viruses were isolated from sera of bovine fetuses or from animals with clinical presentations suggestive of pestivirus infection. Genetic characterization by sequencing and phylogenetic analysis of the 5’UTR region of the viral genome allowed for the identification of bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVDV-1a, 4/12, 33.3%), BVDV-1b (6/12, 50%) and BVDV-2 (2/12, 16.7%). The reactivity of the isolates with a panel of monoclonal antibodies raised against envelope proteins (Erns, E1 and E2) demonstrated a high antigenic variability among isolates. Thus, the active circulation of bovine pestivirus infection, with high genetic and antigenic variability, in cattle on the western border of RS was confirmed, demonstrating the importance of continuous characterization of the pestiviruses circulating in the cattle herds to keep the diagnostic and control measures up to date.

Abstract. Chitinase and β-1,3-glucanase play an important role in the defense reaction against fungal pathogens. In Agave americana there is limited information on the behavior of these proteins in response to the Fusarium oxysporum attack. In this study, a scanning electron microscopy (SEM) analysis was performed using roots of A. americana infected with F. oxysporum, and the activity of chitinase and β-1,3-glucanase in roots of A. americana was evaluated to 0, 7, 15 and 30 days after inoculation with F. oxysporum. SEM revealed that 15 days after inoculation (DAI) is enough for the fungus to infect the roots of A. americana. It was observed that the activity of chitinase in infected plants increased significantly at 15 DAI with respect to non-infected plants, while the activity of β-1,3 glucanase did not show a significant statistical difference with control plants. These results suggest that, in response to F. oxysporum infection, the activation of the chitinase-type PRs proteins is induced in A. americana.
Resumen. La quitinasa y β-1,3-glucanasa desempeñan una función importante en la reacción de defensa contra patógenos fúngicos. En Agave americana existe poca información sobre el comportamiento de estas proteínas en respuesta a la infección de Fusarium oxysporum. En este estudio, se realizó un análisis de microscopía electrónica de barrido (MEB) en raíces de A. americana infectadas con F. oxysporum y se evaluó la actividad de quitinasa y β-1,3-glucanasa en raíces de A. americana a 0, 7, 15 y 30 días después de inoculación con F. oxysporum. MEB reveló que 15 días después de la inoculación (DDI) son suficientes para que el hongo infecte las raíces de A. americana. La actividad de quitinasa en plantas infectadas incrementó significativamente a los 15 DDI con respecto a las plantas no infectadas, mientras que la actividad de β-1,3 glucanasa no presentó diferencia estadística significativa con plantas testigo. Los resultados sugieren que, en respuesta a la infección por F. oxysporum, A. americana activa proteínas PRs de tipo quitinasas.

Abstract The Cultural Importance Index (CII) calculates the value of the role a species plays within a culture, by its value as a useful resource or other interest. The objective of this work was to evaluate the Cultural Importance of wildlife species for the inhabitants of four communities of northern Yucatan, as well as to record the categories of use or management to which they are assigned. The information was obtained through free listings, semi-structured interviews and participant observation. A total of 94 vertebrate species were recorded: 44 birds, 30 mammals and 20 reptiles. The categories of use were: "food", "pet", "symbolic or ritual", "medicinal", "ornamental", and "material for tools". Likewise, "damage control" was an important category mentioned in this studio. The species with the highest Cultural Importance values were: white-tailed deer, collared peccary, rattlesnake, badger, and paca, this is due to the number of uses and to the fact of being present in the categories with more mentions ("food" and "damage control"). By knowing the most valued species and the categories to which they are attributed, one can direct more specific conservation strategies, reduce costs and efforts, and generate interest in the local population.
Resumen El Índice de Importancia Cultural (IIC) calcula el valor del rol que una especie desempeña dentro de una cultura, por su valor como recurso útil u otro interés. El objetivo del presente trabajo fue evaluar la importancia cultural de las especies de fauna silvestre para los habitantes de cuatro comunidades del norte de Yucatán, así como registrar las categorías de uso o manejo a las cuales son asignadas. La información se obtuvo a través de listados libres (free listing), entrevistas semies-tructuradas y observación participante. Se registró un total de 94 especies de vertebrados: 44 aves, 30 mamíferos y 20 reptiles. Las categorías de uso fueron: "alimenticio", "mascota", "simbólico o ritual", "medicinal", "ornamental" y "material para herramientas". Asimismo, "control de daños" fue una categoría de manejo importante en este estudio. Las especies con valores más altos de importancia cultural fueron: venado cola blanca, pecarí de collar, serpiente de cascabel, tejón y tepezcuintle, debido al número de usos y a estar en las categorías con más menciones ("alimento" y "control de daños"). Al conocer las especies más valoradas y las categorías a las que son atribuidas, se pueden dirigir estrategias de conservación más puntuales, reducir costos y esfuerzos, y generar interés en la población local.

RESUMO: A vacinação é utilizada como estratégia para a prevenção e controle das doenças reprodutivas, causadas pelos vírus da diarreia viral bovina (BVDV) e herpesvírus bovino tipo 1 (BoHV-1), entretanto, as diversas composições de vacinas comerciais devem ser avaliadas quanto a sua eficiência protetiva mediada por anticorpos (Acs). O objetivo desta pesquisa foi avaliar a produção Acs neutralizantes específicos para cepas de BVDV-1 e 2, e BoHV-1 induzida por vacinas comerciais contendo diferentes tipos de adjuvantes. Para tal, novilhas Holandesas foram vacinadas e distribuídas em três grupos experimentais: Grupo I (G1) foi vacinado com uma vacina comercial composta por cepas inativadas de BVDV-1, BVDV-2 e BoHV-1 diluídas em hidróxido de alumínio como adjuvante (n=9); Grupo II (G2) foi vacinado com produto contendo as cepas inativadas de BVDV-1, BVDV-2, BoHV-1 e BoHV-5 em uma emulsão oleosa como adjuvante (n=10); O Grupo III (G3) foi vacinado com uma vacina comercial contendo BVDV-1 e BVDV-2 inativado, além do BoHV-1 vivo modificado e termosensivel, diluídos em adjuvante contendo Quil A, Amphigem e colesterol (n=10); O Grupo Controle não vacinado (n=6) foi inoculado com solução salina. As novilhas receberam duas doses das respectivas vacinas ou solução salina (5mL), com intervalo de 21 dias, por via subcutânea, na tábua do pescoço do lado direito. A resposta imune humoral foi avaliada pelo teste de vírus neutralização (VN) contra o BVDV-1 (cepas NADL e Singer), BVDV-2 (cepa SV253) e BoHV-1 (cepa Los Angeles) em amostras de soro coletadas nos dias (D) de vacinação zero (D0), 21 dias após 1ª dose (D21)e 42 (D42; 21 dias após A 2ª dose). Os anticorpos neutralizantes contra o BVDV-1 NADL foram detectados apenas em D42, independentemente da vacina utilizada. Os títulos médios geométricos (GMT) de anticorpos foram semelhantes entre G1 (log2=5,1) e G3 (log2=5,1). A taxa de soroconversão foi maior no G1 (78%) quando comparado ao G2 (10%) e G3 (40%). Para o BVDV-1 Singer, somente após D42 foi observada a produção de Acs no G1 (log2=5,8; taxa de soroconversão de 100%) e G3 (log2=3,5; taxa de soroconversão = 60%). Os anticorpos contra BVDV-2 (SV253) foram detectados apenas nas novilhas do G3, observando-se taxa de soroconversão de 90% com altos títulos de anticorpos neutralizantes (log2=6,7) em D42. Novilhas G1 e G3 responderam ao BoHV-1 após a primeira dose (D21): G1 (log2=2,5; taxa de seroconversão = 67%) e G3 (log2=0,7; taxa de seroconversão = 80%). Em contrapartida, foi observada uma maior magnitude de resposta para as novilhas G3 (log2=6,1; 100%) em D42, em relação aos animais G1 (log2=4,3; 100%) e G2 (log2=2,7; 60%). Com base nos dados obtidos, foi possível concluir que a vacina composta por hidróxido de alumínio (G1) foi mais eficaz na produção de anticorpos contra o BVDV-1, em contrapartida esse produto não induziu anticorpos contra o BVDV-2. Apenas as novilhas do G3 (Quil A, amphigen e colesterol) geraram Acs neutralizantes contra o BVDV-2. Os animais que receberam a vacina em emulsão oleosa (G2) como adjuvante apresentaram uma resposta fraca/indetectável contra o BVDV-1 e BVDV-2. A melhor resposta protetiva contra o BoHV-1 foi observada nas novilhas vacinadas com a vacina viva modificada termosensível.
ABSTRACT: Vaccination is a strategy to the prevention and control of reproductive diseases caused by bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVDV) and bovine herpesvirus type 1 (BoHV-1), however the various compositions of commercial vaccines should be evaluated for their ability to induce protection mediated by antibodies. The objective of this research was to evaluate the production of specific neutralizing Abs against BVDV-1 and 2, and BoHV-1 induced by commercial vaccines composed by different adjuvants. Holstein heifers were vaccinated and distributed in three experimental groups: Group I (G1) was vaccinated with a commercial vaccine containing inactivated BVDV-1, BVDV-2 and BoHV-1 diluted in alum hydroxide as adjuvant (n=9); Group II (G2) was vaccinated with an product containing inactivated strains of BVDV-1, BVDV-2, BoHV-1 and BoHV-5 diluted in oil emulsion as adjuvant (n=10); Group III (G3) was vaccinated with a commercial vaccine containing inactivated BVDV-1 and BVDV-2, besides live modified thermosensitive BoHV-1, diluted in Quil A, amphigen and cholesterol (n=10); A control, non-vaccinated group (n=6) was mock vaccinated with saline. Heifers received two subcutaneous doses of 5mL of each commercial vaccine on the right side of the neck, with 21 days interval. Humoral immune response was assessed by the virus neutralization test (VN) against BVDV-1 (NADL and Singer strains), BVDV-2 (SV253 strain) and BoHV-1 (Los Angeles strain) in serum samples collected on vaccination days zero (D0), 21 (D21) and 42 (D42; 21 days after boosting). Neutralizing Abs against BVDV-1 NADL was detected only in D42, regardless of the vaccine used. Similar geometric mean titers (GMT) for BVDV-1 NADL were observed between G1 (log2=5.1) and G3 (log2=5.1). The seroconversion rate (%) was higher in G1 (78%) when compared to G2 (10%) and G3 (40%). For BVDV-1 Singer, it was also possible to detect Abs production in G1 (log2=5.8, 100% seroconversion rate) and G3 (log2=3.5, seroconversion rate = 60%), only after the booster dose (D42). Neutralizing Abs to BVDV-2 (SV253) were detected only in G3, observing 90% seroconversion associated with high titers of Abs (log2=6.7) after the 2nd dose of vaccine (D42). Heifers from G1 and G3 responded to BoHV-1 after the first dose (D21): G1 (log2=2.5, seroconversion rate = 67%) and G3 (log2=0.7, seroconversion rate = 80%). In D42, a higher magnitude response was observed in the heifers from G3 (log2=6.1, 100%) compared with G1 (log2=4.3, 100%) and G2 (log2=2.7, 60%). Based on the data obtained, it can be concluded that the commercial vaccine contained aluminum hydroxide (G1) was most effective in the induction of antibodies against BVDV-1. On the other hand, this vaccine did not induce the production of neutralizing Abs against BVDV-2. Only the heifers from G3 (Quil A, amphigen and cholesterol) generated neutralizing Abs against BVDV-2. The animals that received commercial vaccine containing oil emulsion as adjuvant (G2) had a weak/undetectable response against BVDV-1 and BVDV-2. The best protective response against BoHV-1 was observed in heifers vaccinated with the live modified thermosensitive virus.

RESUMO: O alfaherpesvírus equino 1 (EHV-1) é um importante patógeno de equinos, associado com doença respiratória, neurológica e abortos. Como a vacinação nem sempre é eficaz, a terapia anti-herpética pode representar uma alternativa para prevenir as perdas causadas pela infecção. Para tal, investigou-se a atividade do ganciclovir (GCV), uma droga anti-herpética de uso humano, em coelhos infectados experimentalmente com o EHV-1. Coelhos da raça Nova Zelândia com 30 dias de idade foram alocados em três grupos (6 animais cada) e submetidos a diferentes tratamentos: G1 (controles não infectados), G2 (inoculados com o EHV-1) - 107 TCID50 intranasal - IN) e G3 (inoculados IN com o EHV-1 e tratados com GCV - 5mg/kg/dia por 7 dias), e monitorados posteriormente. Todos os animais do G2 desenvolveram sinais sistêmicos (apatia moderada a grave, anorexia), secreção ocular e sinais respiratórios (secreção nasal serosa a mucopurulenta), incluindo dificuldade respiratória leve a grave. Viremia foi detectada em todos os coelhos do G2 por até 11 dias (duração média = 6,5 dias). Um animal morreu após dificuldade respiratória grave e sinais neurológicos (bruxismo, opistótono). Além disso, esses animais ganharam menos peso que os coelhos controle (G1) e tratados com GCV (G3) entre os dias 4 e 14pi (p<0,05). O escore clínico de coelhos do G2 foi estatisticamente maior que os demais grupos dos dias 3 a 6pi (p<0,05), demonstrando uma doença mais grave. Em contraste, os coelhos do G3 não apresentaram sinais sistêmicos, apresentaram apenas secreção nasal leve e transiente e ganharam mais peso que os animais do G2 (p<0,05). Além disso, a viremia foi detectada em apenas 3 coelhos e foi transitória (média de 2,3 dias). Assim, a administração de GCV a coelhos inoculados com EHV-1 resultou em uma importante atenuação da doença clínica, como demonstrado pela prevenção completa de sinais sistêmicos, manutenção do ganho de peso e pela redução drástica da viremia e da magnitude dos sinais respiratórios. Estes resultados são promissores para testes adicionais com o GCV para potencial terapêutico anti-herpética em equinos.
ABSTRACT: Equid alphaherpesvirus 1 (EHV-1) is an important pathogen of horses, associated with respiratory, neurological disease and abortions. As vaccination is not always effective, anti-herpetic therapy may represent an alternative to prevent the losses caused by the infection. We herein investigated the activity of ganciclovir (GCV), an anti-herpetic human drug, in rabbits experimentally infected with EHV-1. Thirty-days-old New Zealand rabbits were allocated in three groups (6 animals each) and submitted to different treatments: G1 (non-infected controls), G2 (inoculated with EHV-1) - 107 TCID50 intranasally - IN) and G3 (inoculated IN with EHV-1 and treated with GCV - 5mg/kg/day for 7 days) and monitored thereafter. All animals of G2 developed systemic signs (moderate to severe apathy, anorexia), ocular discharge and respiratory signs (serous to mucopurulent nasal discharge), including mild to severe respiratory distress. Viremia was detected in all rabbits of G2 for up to 11 days (mean duration = 6.5 days). One animal died after severe respiratory distress and neurological signs (bruxism, opistotonus). In addition, these animals gained less weight than the control (G1) and GCV-treated rabbits (G3) from days 4 to 14pi (p<0.05). The clinical score of rabbits of G2 was statistically higher than the other groups from days 3 to 6pi (p<0.05), demonstrating a more severe disease. In contrast, G3 rabbits did not present systemic signs, presented only a mild and transient nasal secretion and gained more weight than G2 animals (p<0.05). In addition, viremia was detected in only 3 rabbits and was transient (average of 2.3 days). Thus, administration of GCV to rabbits inoculated IN with EHV-1 resulted in an important attenuation of the clinical disease as demonstrated by full prevention of systemic signs, maintenance of weight gain and by drastic reduction in viremia and in the magnitude of respiratory signs. These results are promising towards further testing of GCV as a potential drug for anti-herpetic therapy in horses.

RESUMO: No presente estudo foi realizada a identificação genética de pestivírus contaminantes de lotes de soro fetal bovino (SFB) produzidos no Brasil de 2006 a 2014. Setenta e três lotes de SFB foram testados por RT-PCR para a região 5’ não traduzida do genoma dos pestivírus. Trinta e nove lotes (53,4%) foram positivos para RNA de pestivírus e um continha vírus infeccioso. O sequenciamento de nucleotídeos e análise filogenética da região 5’UTR revelou que 34 lotes (46,6%) continham RNA do vírus da diarreia viral bovina tipo 1 (BVDV-1), sendo 23 BVDV-1a (identidade na 5’ UTR de 90,8-98,7%), oito BVDV-1b (93,9 a 96,7%) e três BVDV-1d (96,2%-97,6%). Seis lotes (8,2%) continham BVDV-2 (90,3 a 100% de identidade), sendo dois BVDV-2a, três BVDV-2b e um de subgenótipo indeterminado. Quatro lotes de SFB (5,5%) estavam contaminados com o vírus HoBi-like (98,3 a 100%). Cinco lotes (6,8%) continham mais do que um pestivírus. A alta frequência de contaminação de SFB com RNA de pestivírus reforça a necessidade para diretrizes sistemáticas atualizadas para a monitoração deste produto com a finalidade de reduzir a contaminação de produtos biológicos e a introdução de agentes contaminantes em áreas livres.
ABSTRACT: The present study performed a genetic identification of pestiviruses contaminating batches of fetal bovine serum (FBS) produced in Brazil from 2006 to 2014. Seventy-three FBS lots were screened by a RT-PCR targeting the 5’untranslated region (UTR) of the pestivirus genome. Thirty-nine lots (53.4%) were positive for pestivirus RNA and one contained infectious virus. Nucleotide sequencing and phylogenetic analysis of the 5’UTR revealed 34 lots (46.6%) containing RNA of bovine viral diarrhea virus type 1 (BVDV-1), being 23 BVDV-1a (5’ UTR identity 90.8-98.7%), eight BVDV-1b (93.9-96.7%) and three BVDV-1d (96.2- 97.6%). Six lots (8.2%) contained BVDV-2 (90.3-100% UTR identity) being two BVDV-2a; three BVDV-2b and one undetermined. Four FBS batches (5.5%) were found contaminated with HoBi-like virus (98.3 to 100%). Five batches (6.8%) contained more than one pestivirus. The high frequency of contamination of FBS with pestivirus RNA reinforce the need for systematic and updated guidelines for monitoring this product to reduce the risk of contamination of biologicals and introduction of contaminating agents into free areas.
