Produção de biofilmes por Staphylococcus spp. em vacas com mastite tratadas com homeopatia.
Provedor de dados: 14
Autores: ZAFALON, L. F.; CUNHA, M. L. R. S.; ALVES, T. C.; FERREIRA, E. M.
No Brasil, a homeopatia é a principal forma de controle da mastite em rebanhos orgânicos. Entretanto, desconhece-se a capacidade desse tipo de tratamento de controlar bactérias patogênicas relevantes à saúde animal e humana, como aquelas do gênero Staphylococcus. Esses micro-organismos apresentam fatores de patogenicidade, como a produção de biofilmes e questiona-se a possibilidade de essas bactérias permanecerem na glândula mamária de vacas tratadas com homeopatia, mesmo após o uso destas terapias alternativas. Assim, buscou-se investigar Staphylococcus spp. em leite de vacas com tratamento homeopático contra a mastite e a formação in vitro de biofilmes por esses patógenos. As vacas lactantes foram divididas em dois grupos antes do início do experimento,...

Ca2+-activated Cl- channel currents in mammary secretory cells from lactating mouse
Provedor de dados: 19
Autores: Kamikawa, Akihiro; Ichii, Osamu; Sakazaki, Junpei; Ishikawa, Toru.
The Cl- secretion via Ca2+-activated Cl- channel (CaCC) is critical for fluid secretion in exocrine glands like the salivary gland. Also in the mammary gland, it has been hypothesized that CaCC plays an important role in the secretion of Cl- and aqueous phase of milk. However, there has been no evidence for the functional expression of CaCC in native mammary secretory (MS) cells of lactating animals. We therefore assessed membrane current in MS cells that were freshly isolated from lactating mice using whole cell patch-clamp techniques. In MS cells, we detected CaCC current that exhibited the following characteristics: 1) Ca2+-dependent activation at the concentrations of sub-micromolar range; 2) voltage-dependent activation; 3) slow kinetics for...

To obtain B-mode ultrasound images of mammary glands in dairy heifers at different stages of growth, 25 clinically normal Holstein heifers were used. The heifers were divided into 5 groups (n=5/group) by stage of their growth: 2-month-old (group 1), 5-month-old (group 2), postpuberty (group 3), mid (group 4), and late (group 5) pregnancy. Furthermore, the sections of mammary glands were observed grossly at postmortem examination in one heifer in each group. Ultrasound images varied with the development of mammary glands. In group 1, the mammary glands had distinctive ultrasonographic findings: an oval to fusiform homogeneous hypoechoic structure. In all groups except group 1, mammary tissue consists of two major areas: a homogeneous, medium echogenic area...

Autores: Porcionato,Marco Aurélio de Felicio; Soares,Weber Vilas Boas; Reis,Carolina Barbosa Malek dos; Cortinhas,Cristina Simões; Mestieri,Lucinéia; Santos,Marcos Veiga dos.
The aim of this work was to evaluate the association between milk flow, teat morphological measurements and subclinical mastitis prevalence in Gir cows. Eighty cows in the 2nd and 3rd lactations, with 90 to 200 days of lactation, were divided according to milk flow during milking into fast or slow groups. Teat morphometry was assessed by ultrasound scanning of the right anterior teat and external measurements. Milk samples were collected for somatic cells count (SCC) and microbiological culture. The effect of milk flow during milking was evaluated by analysis of variance of milk yield, SCC, morphometry and external measurements. The association of morphometry and external measurements of the teats with the SCC and microorganisms found in milk were...

The importance of mastitis in dairy production in Brazil
Provedor de dados: 195
Autores: Costa, Elizabeth Oliveira da.
Mastitis is an inflammation of the mammary gland that causes severe economic losses due to reduced milk production, expence on pharmaceuticals, veterinary care, discarding of milk after treatment and discarding of affected animals. This inflammatory process may have distinct origins, but all cases of economic importance are caused by microorganisms. According to their origin and means of transmission, the main etiological agents were put together in two groups, contagious microorganisms (Streptococcus agalactiae, Staphylococcus sp, e Corynebacterium bovis) transmitted mainly during rnilking and environmental microorganisms (Streptococcus uberis, Enterobacteriaceae, fungos, algae of the genus Prototheca, etc.).Clinical mastitis is characterized by visible...

Autores: Souza,I.B.; Cardoso,C.V.; Poppe,S.C.; Bondan,E.F.
RESUMO O estresse oxidativo causa peroxidação lipídica e formação de substâncias reativas ao ácido tiobarbitúrico (TBARS), processo que está comprovadamente associado à progressão de neoplasias malignas em seres humanos. Por sua vez, espécies reativas de oxigênio (EROs) são produzidas no processo carcinogênico, de forma que a geração de EROs parece ser, ao mesmo tempo, causa e consequência dele. Em cães, a associação da peroxidação lipídica com a carcinogênese permanece ainda obscura, com estudos escassos, de resultados conflitantes, que, muitas vezes, incluem, dentro de um mesmo grupo amostral, animais portadores de tumores heterogêneos dos pontos de vista morfológico e comportamental, além de estes se apresentarem em estágios bastante distintos. Nesse...

Mast cells and angiogenesis in canine mammary tumor
Provedor de dados: 45
Autores: Lavalle,G.E; Bertagnolli,A.C; Tavares,W.L.F; Ferreira,M.A.N.D; Cassali,G.D.
The correlation between microvessel density and mast cells density in canine mammary tumors was studied. Sixty-five samples of canine mammary tumors, being 24 benign and 41 malignant, were analyzed. The routine Toluidine Blue staining method was used to assess the mast cells. To evaluate angiogenesis, the immunohistochemical expression of CD31 was assessed. There was no significant difference in either mast cells (P=0.44) or microvessel density (P=0.77) between malignant and benign tumors. A positive correlation was observed between microvessel density and mast cells (r=0.39; P=0.011) in malignant tumors. These results suggest that mast cells may play a role in canine mammary malignant tumors development, promoting angiogenesis, similar to some tumors...

RESUMO Em seres humanos, a adiponectinemia está associada à obesidade e ao risco aumentado a uma ampla variedade de cânceres. Embora o papel dessa adipocina esteja bem documentado na patogênese do câncer em humanos, tal associação permanece a ser determinada em cães. Nesses animais, a relação da adiponectina com a carcinogênese parece ser ainda meramente especulativa. Nesse contexto, buscou-se nesta investigação comparar os níveis séricos de adiponectina em fêmeas hígidas e em portadoras de carcinomas mamários com diagnóstico histopatológico de carcinoma mamário tubular simples estágio 4, com comprometimento de linfonodos, porém sem metástases a distância detectadas. Foi observado que as cadelas diagnosticadas com carcinoma mamário tiveram níveis séricos...

Autores: Nunes,F.C.; Campos,C.B.; Teixeira,S.V.; Bertagnolli,A.C.; Lavalle,G.E.; Cassali,G.D.
ABSTRACT Canine mammary neoplasms (CMNs) are the most frequent lesions and in female dogs. However, studies correlating pathological criteria with clinical evolution in female dogs with mammary neoplasms are scarce. The present study aims to present epidemiological, clinical-pathological and overall survival data to help establish the prognosis and understand the biological behavior of CMNs. A total of 1539 cases were included (85% malignant and 13% benign). Tumor size was an important prognostic factor and was associated with overall patient survival (P&lt; 0.0001). Most dogs diagnosed with malignant neoplasms (83%) had initial clinical staging, although 17% had regional or distant metastases at the time of diagnosis and lower overall survival (P&lt;...

Tubulopapillary carcinoma of the mammary gland in a maned wolf (Chrysocyon brachyurus): histopathological and immunophenotypical analysis
Provedor de dados: 45
Autores: Gamba,C.O.; Damasceno,K.A.; Ferreira,E.; Malta,M.C.C.; Cassali,G.D.
A maned female wolf (Chrysocyon brachyurus) showed nodules in the inguinal and left abdominal cranial mammary glands. The mammary gland was surgically excised, and microscopic analysis revealed epithelial cell proliferation in a tubular and papillary pattern; delicate fibrovascular stalks presenting numerous layers of moderately pleomorfic epithelial cells were observed. This histologic appearance was compatible with a diagnosis of mammary tubulopapillary carcinoma. The immunohistochemical profile revealed nuclear positivity for estrogen (70%) and progesterone (at least 90% of the neoplastic cells). The myoepithelium-associated with neoplastic cells lacked integrity, as evidenced by failed smooth muscle alpha actin reactivity in microinvasive areas. A low...

Autores: Chambô-Filho,A.; Camargos,A.F.; Pereira,F.E.L.
Increased levels of androgens in postmenopausal women are considered to be a risk factor for breast cancer. Testosterone, alone or in combination with estrogen, induces epithelial dysplasia and mammary tumors in Noble rats. Since this model of hormone-induced neoplasia has not been reported in other rat strains, we studied the effect of testosterone on the mammary gland morphology of female Wistar rats. Sixty adult, non-castrated, female Wistar rats were implanted in the dorsum midline with a silicone tube containing 50 mg testosterone (testosterone propionate in 30 animals and non-esterified testosterone in the remaining 30 animals) and 20 additional animals were implanted with empty tubes and used as control. Five animals per group were killed 30, 60,...

Autores: Serafim,A.P.; Felicio,L.F.
The pregnancy-induced increase in self-licking observed in rats is important for mammary gland development and lactation. Reproductive experience has epidemiologial implications such as a decrease in the incidence of mammary gland cancer in women and it also influences various behavioral, neurochemical and endocrine parameters. The aim of the present study was to investigate the influence of reproductive experience on grooming behavior patterns during pregnancy in rats. Self-grooming behavior was measured in age-matched virgin, primi- and multigravid (days 7, 8, 9, 19, and 20 of pregnancy) rats. General grooming (head, forelimbs and shoulders) was not significantly different among virgin, primi- and multigravid rats during pregnancy. Confirming previous...

Bacterial biofilms are involved in the aggravation and recurrence of clinical mastitis in dairy herds. Several factors such as pH, temperature, concentration of O2 and glucose can affect their induction and growth rates. In this study, biofilm production was demonstrated by 27 Escherichia coli strains isolated from bovine mastitis at different pH values depending on the availability of glucose, mimicking conditions found in mammary glands affected by the disease. Biofilm formation was analyzed by spectrophotometric analysis in microtiter plate with 16 different culture media and by scanning electron microscopy. Biofilm formation was greater in isolates cultured under conditions associated with low glucose availability (0.5% or 1.5%) and with either an...
