Seroprevalence of zoonotic pathogens and related haematological and biochemical profiles in Fonni’s dogs in rural conditions
Fonni’s dog is a canine breed autochthonous to the Mediterranean area, specifically from Sardinia (Italy). A total of 190 dogs were examined to determine the seroprevalence of different pathogens endemic in this region and related haematological profile. The seropositivity of pathogens was 65.0 %, 41.3 %, 28.7 %, and 18.9 % for Rickettsia spp., Ehrlichia canis, Anaplasma. phagocytophilum, and Bartonella spp., respectively. Leishmania infantum and Toxoplasma gondii presented the same seroprevalence (5.6 %) respectively. The number of pathogens in co-seropositivity did not change the haematological parameters evaluated, whereas the age had an effect on several of them, including albumin (ALB), alkaline phosphatase (ALP), calcium (CAL), total cholesterol (COL), creatine phosphokinase (CPK), creatinine (CRE), aspartate aminotransferase (GOT), lipase (LIP), phosphorus (P), total protein (PRO) and triglycerides (TRI). Pathogens evaluated influenced different parameters. Specifically, Rickettsia spp. decreased CPK activity, creatine and glucose levels and increased phosphorus. T. gondii increased CPK activity and decreased glucose levels, and E. canis decreased gamma glutamyl transferase (GGT) activity. Finally, L. infantum seropositivity decreased CPK and increased GOT activities. The results observed in Fonni’s dogs related to seroprevalence of L. infantum and associated haematological parameters indicate that this canine breed could exhibit different behaviour from that of other canine breeds when faced with this pathogen. Further studies are necessary to elucidate the cause of these differences.
期刊介绍:
Veterinary Microbiology is concerned with microbial (bacterial, fungal, viral) diseases of domesticated vertebrate animals (livestock, companion animals, fur-bearing animals, game, poultry, fish) that supply food, other useful products or companionship. In addition, Microbial diseases of wild animals living in captivity, or as members of the feral fauna will also be considered if the infections are of interest because of their interrelation with humans (zoonoses) and/or domestic animals. Studies of antimicrobial resistance are also included, provided that the results represent a substantial advance in knowledge. Authors are strongly encouraged to read - prior to submission - the Editorials (''Scope or cope'' and ''Scope or cope II'') published previously in the journal. The Editors reserve the right to suggest submission to another journal for those papers which they feel would be more appropriate for consideration by that journal.
Original research papers of high quality and novelty on aspects of control, host response, molecular biology, pathogenesis, prevention, and treatment of microbial diseases of animals are published. Papers dealing primarily with immunology, epidemiology, molecular biology and antiviral or microbial agents will only be considered if they demonstrate a clear impact on a disease. Papers focusing solely on diagnostic techniques (such as another PCR protocol or ELISA) will not be published - focus should be on a microorganism and not on a particular technique. Papers only reporting microbial sequences, transcriptomics data, or proteomics data will not be considered unless the results represent a substantial advance in knowledge.
Drug trial papers will be considered if they have general application or significance. Papers on the identification of microorganisms will also be considered, but detailed taxonomic studies do not fall within the scope of the journal. Case reports will not be published, unless they have general application or contain novel aspects. Papers of geographically limited interest, which repeat what had been established elsewhere will not be considered. The readership of the journal is global.
