Socio-demographic Variables as Risk Factors for Neurologic Disease due to Infection by West Nile Virus
… characteristics be considered risk factors for neurological disease due to West Nile Virus?" Based on the results of this research, the answer is yes. Socio-demographic characteristics identified as risk factors are related to educational attainment, income, age of housing and poverty. …

Equine Protozoal Myeloencephalitis: investigating immunopathogenesis and treatment efficacy in mouse models and clinically affected horses
… the protozoa Saracocystis neurona, is a common neurologic disease in horses from North America. Equine exposure to the parasite occurs frequently as the protozoa is excreted in opossum (Didelphis virginiana) feces and contaminates the horse's environment. However, clinical neurologic disease …

Moose and deer resource selection and co-occurrence in northeast Minnesota
… alces) population declines. Moose suffer from neurologic disease and usually die when infected with P. tenuis. The strength of the three-way relationship between moose, deer, and P. tenuis, and the resulting negative impact on moose health, is thought to be driven by deer densities. Despite its …

Cardiovascular Toxicity Induced by Fumonisin in Pigs and Horses
… contractility, and induced clinical signs of neurologic disease. These findings suggest that fumonisin-induced cardiovascular depression may contribute to the pathophysiology of equine leukoencephalomalacia.

NEUROPROTECTIVE STUDIES ON THE MPTP AND SOD1 MOUSE MODELS OF NEURODEGENERATIVE DISEASES
The main, underlying cause of neurodegenerative disease is the progressive loss of neuronal structure or function, whereby central and/or peripheral nervous system circuitry is severely and irreversibly damaged, resulting in the manifestation of clinical symptoms and signs. Neurodegenerative …

Equine Herpesvirus Type 1: Filling Gaps Toward Improved Outbreak Management
… horses that typically causes upper respiratory disease, however is also associated with late-term abortion, neonatal foal death and neurologic disease. Once a horse is infected, the virus concentrates to local lymphoid tissue, where it becomes latent. The virus can recrudesce during times of …

Retroviral envelope glycoproteins: mediators of neuropathology in nervous system development and neurodegeneration in HIV-1 infection
… for the pathomechanisms by which HIV-1 causes neurologic disease has frequently focused on the possible role of the envelope glycoprotein, gpl20, as a mediator of excitotoxicity. Many animal retroviruses of veterinary importance produce neurologic and immunologic syndromes similar to those …

Identifying Genetic Factors of BSE Susceptibility
… encephalopathy (BSE) is a transmissible, neurologic disease of cattle that decimated the cattle industry in many countries when it was discovered to be zoonotic. This disease is caused by a unique pathogen believed to be entirely composed of a misfolded, degradation-resistant form of a …

Investigation of Immune Response to Sarcocystis neurona Infection in Horses with Equine Protozoal Myeloencephalitis
… Protozoal Myeloencephalitis (EPM) is a serious neurologic disease of horses in the United States. The primary etiologic agent is Sarcocystis neurona (S. neurona). Currently, there is limited knowledge regarding the protective or pathologic immune response to infection to the intracellular …

The Hu Syndrome: At the Intersection of Cancer and Autoimmunity
<p>Paraneoplastic neurologic diseases (PNDs) arise when systemic malignancies express proteins normally restricted to neurons. Abnormal expression of a neuronal protein by tumor cells in the periphery results in an autoimmune response that then targets both the tumor and the nervous system. These …

Improving the Knowledge of EPM
Equine protozoal Myeloencephalitis (EPM) is a neurologic disease in horses predominantly caused by the protozoa Sarcocystis neurona. Carried by the North American opossum, Didelphis virginiana, horses are exposed to S. neurona when eating or drinking food or water contaminated with opossum feces. …
