概括
田纳西州东部的猛禽通常是Sarcocystis物种的宿主,超过三分之一的猛禽显示组织囊. 大多数感染都没有疾病的迹象,这表明掠食者经常作为无症状的携带者.
科学领域:
- 兽医寄生虫学 兽医寄生虫学
- 鸟类病理学 鸟类病理学
- 野生动物疾病生态学 野生动物疾病生态学
背景情况:
- 猛禽是已知Sarcocystis物种的宿主,充当中间和最终宿主.
- 以前的研究表明,从致命的脑炎到掠食动物的无症状感染,结果各不相同.
- 关于美国东部猛禽中 Sarcocystis 发病率的数据有限.
研究的目的:
- 为了调查田纳西州东部猛禽中 Sarcocystis 组织囊的患病率.
- 在这些鸟类中识别与 Sarcocystis 感染相关的组织病理学变化.
- 描述该地区感染猛禽的Sarcocystis物种.
主要方法:
- 对田纳西州33只猛禽的组织进行了组织病理学检查.
- 标识sarcocystis spp. 的标识 心脏,骨和气管肌肉中的囊.
- 聚合酶链反应 (PCR) 针对 18S rRNA 基因进行物种识别.
- 免疫组织化学用于共感染检测.
主要成果:
- 萨尔科西斯蒂斯 spp. 的一种. 在33% (11/33) 的猛禽中发现了囊,主要是在肌肉组织中.
- 检测到的 Sarcocystis 囊与没有明显的炎症有关.
- 在PCR分析中,发现了6只猛禽中的Sarcocystis falcatula和2只猛禽中的Sarcocystis halieti.
- 一只带有sarcocystis falcatula的光头也表现出脑炎和东方马脑炎病毒.
结论:
- 田纳西州东部的猛禽经常携带Sarcocystis物种,与其他地方的发现一致.
- 在这种猛禽群体中,大多数囊炎感染似乎是亚临床的.
- 同时感染,如 Sarcocystis falcatula 与EEEV,需要进一步调查猛禽的健康状况.

Rous Sarcoma Virus (RSV) and Cancer
4.9K
Rous Sarcoma virus or RSV was discovered by F. Peyton Rous in the year 1911 as a filterable transmissible agent that could cause tumors in chickens. He won a Nobel Prize for this discovery in 1966. His experiments clearly demonstrated that some cancers could be caused by infectious agents and led to the discovery of many more cancer-causing viruses in animals as well as humans.

Mutation, Gene Flow, and Genetic Drift
57.4K
In a population that is not at Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, the frequency of alleles changes over time. Therefore, any deviations from the five conditions of Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium can alter the genetic variation of a given population. Conditions that change the genetic variability of a population include mutations, natural selection, non-random mating, gene flow, and genetic drift (small population size).
