The biotype of Corynebacterium pseudotuberculosis affecting horses and cattle is distinguishable from the biotype that infects small ruminants based on its ability to reduce nitrate in vitro. The equine and bovine strains can reduce nitrate, whereas ...
Calciseptine has been shown to specifically inhibit the L-type voltage-gated Ca 2+ channels and was the first natural polypeptide discovered with this property. Specific polypeptide inhibitors of voltage-sensitive channels are important tools in research, and were already known for voltage-sensitive Na + channels, both voltage-sensitive and Ca 2+-activated K + channels, and for N-type Ca 2 ...
Control of the disease is usually through elimination of the infection. This is achieved by culling infected horses and application of strict hygiene practices to prevent spread of the organism. Vaccination has been used on a limited scale in areas where enzootic lymphangitis is endemic, e.g. Iraq, but is not authorised for widespread use. [3]
