Restoration of Type 17 immune signaling is not sufficient for protection during influenza-associated pulmonary aspergillosis by Aijaz Ahmad, Ravineel B. Singh, Kara L. Nickolich, Matthew J. Pilewski, Caden Ngeow, Kwame Frempong-Manso, Keven M. Robinson

“…In this study, we investigate the role of IL-17 and Type 17 immune signaling components during IAPA.MethodsWild-type mice were challenged with influenza A H1N1 (flu) and then exposed to Aspergillus fumigatus ATCC42202 resting conidia on day 6 post-influenza infection, followed by the quantification of cytokines and chemokines at 48 h post-fungal infection.Results and discussionThe gene and protein expression levels revealed that IL-17 and Type 17 immune cytokines and antimicrobial peptides are downregulated during IAPA compared to mice singularly infected solely with A. fumigatus. …”

Science-based assurance of the disease freedom in reindeer herds of the Russian Arctic zone by K. A. Laishev, A. A. Yuzhakov

“…The analysis of the archival data and literary sources, as well as own research data lead to the following conclusions: the greatest risk of anthrax occurrence and spread is posed by old carcass sites; to eradicate brucellosis, vaccination of animals along with the general disease control measures is necessary; in case of footrot, special attention should be paid to the control of blood-sucking insects and warble flies; to prevent rabies in reindeer herds, it is important to avoid contacts between deer and wild carnivores and consider emergency vaccination. …”
