Diagnosis of heartworm disease relies on serologic antigen detection and microfilariae identification. Immune-complex dissociation (ICD) of serum or plasma by heat treatment increases detection. We assessed urine as a sample for heartworm antigen detection in dogs with known and unknown infection status using a commercial ELISA. Twenty-nine matching serum or plasma and urine samples were collected from 20 experimentally infected dogs to assess antigen detection in urine. Matching serum and urine samples of 267 dogs admitted to a spay/neuter clinic with unknown infection status were also screened. In experimentally infected dogs, antigenemia was detected in 86% of samples pre-ICD and 91% post-ICD; antigenuria was detected in 76% pre-ICD and 72% post-ICD; differences were not statistically significant. In clinic samples, antigenemia was detected in 7.9% of dogs pre-ICD and 12.4% post-ICD; antigenuria was detected in 11.6% of dogs pre-ICD and 6.4% post-ICD. In experimental infection samples, sensitivity (Se), specificity (Sp), and positive predictive value of antigenuria were high (85%, 100%, 100%, respectively). In clinic samples, Se and negative predictive value were high (95% and 92%, respectively). Our data confirm that heartworm antigen can be detected in the urine of dogs with both experimental heartworm infections and with unknown infection status. However, antigenuria had high Sp and low Se compared to matching serum of clinic dog samples and urine cannot be recommended for routine screening.","PeriodicalId":17579,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Veterinary Diagnostic Investigation","volume":" ","pages":"10406387251327415"},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2025-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11966635/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143764492","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We examined 252 mammary masses from 183 dogs to determine the prevalence of amyloid deposition and elucidate etiologic factors. Histologically, amyloid deposition was observed in 88 of 252 (35%) mammary masses. Amyloid deposition patterns were categorized into 3 types: stromal deposition (ST), deposition in corpora amylacea (CA), and precipitation within luminal secretions (PR). Of the 88 amyloid deposition cases, 49 were intra-tumoral, especially for ST-type amyloid deposits, which were all intra-tumoral. Immunohistochemistry and mass spectrometry revealed that ST-type amyloid deposits were positive for either serum amyloid A or α-S1-casein, depending on the sample; all CA- and PR-type amyloid deposits were positive for α-S1-casein. Statistically, intra-tumoral ST-type amyloid deposition was significantly more frequent in histologic grade II (p = 0.009) or III (p < 0.001) mammary tumors. In contrast, amyloid deposition in extra-tumoral tissues is significantly associated with aging (p = 0.002). Our findings suggest that the disruption of proteostasis in the canine mammary gland associated with tumorigenesis and aging can readily induce amyloid formation.","PeriodicalId":17579,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Veterinary Diagnostic Investigation","volume":" ","pages":"10406387251328323"},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2025-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11966624/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143763646","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Its clinical effects of severe anemia, decreased growth, weight loss, and death negatively impact cattle welfare and create a significant economic burden for cattle producers. Despite availability of highly sensitive and specific assays for anti-A. marginale antibodies (competitive ELISA) and A. marginale genetic material (real-time PCR), the interpretation of test results for the diagnosis of clinical anaplasmosis in cattle remains challenging. Treatment and control usually consist of administration of oral and/or injectable tetracyclines; however, this approach is unlikely to be sustainable in the face of increasing scrutiny of antimicrobial usage in livestock. Statistically robust prospective studies are needed to characterize the prevalence, distribution, and transmission of bovine anaplasmosis under field conditions, as the epidemiology of this disease remains incompletely understood. Apart from minimizing exposure of naïve cattle to carriers (e.g., testing new introductions and interpreting in the context of herd-level seropositivity, changing needles between cattle), veterinarians and producers have few tools for prevention of bovine anaplasmosis based on data-driven risk assessment. A vaccine that is consistently safe and effective has proved elusive, but ongoing research into A. marginale vaccine candidates offers hope for a more effective means of protecting cattle from this costly disease.","PeriodicalId":17579,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Veterinary Diagnostic Investigation","volume":" ","pages":"10406387251324180"},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2025-03-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11955989/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143743358","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Our primary goal was to derive RIs for liver mineral concentrations for these cattle populations. We collected and analyzed liver samples from 96 cattle from 14 sites in the Netherlands and used inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry to measure concentrations of trace elements and heavy metals, including arsenic, cadmium, chromium, cobalt, copper, iron, lead, manganese, molybdenum, nickel, selenium, vanadium, and zinc. The statistical analysis included Pearson product moment correlations and k-means clustering to evaluate patterns within the data. The highest significant correlations were between liver cadmium concentrations and animal age, and between liver copper and selenium concentrations. Breed-related differences were found for liver cadmium and molybdenum concentrations, but we could not isolate breed-differences in forage selection from environmental variables such as soil composition. Liver copper levels in many animals were below thresholds typically used to indicate copper deficiency in farmed cattle.","PeriodicalId":17579,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Veterinary Diagnostic Investigation","volume":" ","pages":"10406387251325864"},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2025-03-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11948226/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143700813","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Therefore, molecular sexing is a valuable tool for breeding, selection, and conservation purposes. We compared DNA extraction by commercial kit and an alkaline method from feathers, then developed a molecular method for sexing these species using the P2/P8 and CHD1F/CHD1R primer pairs. Both protocols were successful in extracting DNA; the alkaline method is more cost-effective, whereas the commercial kit protocol is easier to standardize. All DNA samples were successfully amplified using both the P2/P8 and CHD1F/1R primer pairs. The use of the CHD1F/1R primer pair is notably advantageous as it produces fragments of different lengths of the sex chromosomes, making them easily distinguishable via electrophoresis. The sequence analysis of the amplicons obtained with the CHD1F/1R primer pair revealed specific single-nucleotide polymorphisms for song thrush and redwing, which could be used as markers to differentiate between the 2 species if required.","PeriodicalId":17579,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Veterinary Diagnostic Investigation","volume":" ","pages":"10406387251323555"},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2025-03-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11904919/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143605381","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
