Exogenous farnesol interferes with the normal progression of cytokine expression during candidiasis in a mouse model.
Dhammika H. M. L. P. Navarathna,Kenneth W. Nickerson,Gerald E. Duhamel,Thomas R. Jerrels,Thomas M. Petro +4 more
TL;DR: The role of farnesol in systemic candidiasis is likely due to its ability to inhibit the critical Th1 cytokines IFN-γ and IL-12 and perhaps to enhance a Th2 cytokine, IL-5.
Comparative pathology and pathogenesis of naturally acquired and experimentally induced colonic spirochetosis.
TL;DR: The lesions seen in naturally occurring and experimentally induced CS of animals are described, and it sets the stage for future research into the pathogenic mechanisms of infection and colitis caused by B. pilosicoli.

Comparative Pathology of Bacterial Enteric Diseases of Swine
TL;DR: Enteric bacterial infections are among the most common and economically significant diseases affecting swine production worldwide and have been used as models to study the pathogenesis of similar diseases of human beings.

Certain canine weakly beta-hemolytic intestinal spirochetes are phenotypically and genotypically related to spirochetes associated with human and porcine intestinal spirochetosis.

TL;DR: The IS-associated canine, human, and porcine WBHIS belonged to a phyletic group distinct from but related to previously described Serpulina type species.
Rapid detection of Serpulina hyodysenteriae in diagnostic specimens by PCR.
TL;DR: A PCR assay for the detection of Serpulina hyodysenteriae in diagnostic specimens was developed on the basis of sequence analysis of a recombinant clone designated pRED3C6 and was 1,000 times more sensitive than conventional culture of dysenteric feces on selective medium.
