#1 - Metazoan and protozoan pathology of wild opossums (Didelphis virginiana) in Mexico
Abstract in English:
The aim was to describe the incidence and lesions caused by metazoan and protozoan parasites in Didelphis virginiana opossums in Mexico. From 2019 to 2021, twenty D. virginiana were collected from the state of Colima, Mexico. Post mortem, parasitological, and histopathological studies were performed to identify and describe their lesions and findings. All opossums(20/20) presented at least one type of parasite of the twelve found; the most abundant were nematodes 58.33% (7/12) Didelphostrongylus hayesi, Turgida turgida, Cruzia sp., Viannaia sp., Trichuris didelphis, Trichostrongylidae and Gnathostoma sp. Protozoa 25% (3/12), including Sarcocystis sp., Besnoitia sp., and Sarcocystis sp. A single specimen of Mathevotaenia sp., 8.3% (1/12), and Paragonimus mexicanus 8.3%, were identified (1/12). The most affected systems were the digestive, respiratory, and musculoskeletal. The most abundant parasites were Turgida turgida (20/20) 100%, Cruzia sp., (16/20) 80%, and Viannaia sp. (6/20) 30%, followed by Sarcocystis sp. cysts, (6/20) 30%. The associated parasitic lesions were: D. hayesi produce eosinophilic granulomatous bronchopneumonia, P. mexicanus eosinophilic focal granulomatous pneumonia, and Besnoitia sp., focal eosinophilic lymphoplasmacytic interstitial pneumonia. Gnathostoma and T. turgida caused severe eosinophilic granulomatous focal gastritis. Viannaia sp., Sarcocystis sp., Mathevotaenia sp., and Trichostrongylidae; caused diffuse eosinophilic mucosal enteritis. Cruzia sp., and T. didelphis, induced diffuse eosinophilic mucosal typhlitis. Sarcocystis sp. cysts were detected in the cytoplasm of muscle fibers without histological changes.

O objetivo deste artigo foi descrever a frequência e as lesões causadas por parasitas metazoários e protozoários em gambás (Didelphis virginiana) no México. De 2019 a 2021, vinte Gambás (D. virginiana) foram coletados no estado de Colima, México. Estudos post mortem, parasitológicos e histopatológicos foram realizados para identificar e descrever suas lesões. Todos os gambás (20/20) apresentaram pelo menos um tipo de parasita dos doze encontrados, os mais abundantes foram os nematóides 58,33% (7/12) Didelphostrongylus hayesi, Turgida turgida, Cruzia sp., Viannaia sp., Trichuris didelphis, Trichostrongylidae e Gnathostoma sp. Protozoários 25% (3/12) Sarcocystis sp., Besnoitia sp. e Sarcocystis sp. Só uma única espécie de Mathevotaenia sp., 8,3% (1/12) e Paragonimus mexicanus 8,3% (1/12). Os sistemas mais acometidos foram o digestivo, respiratório e musculoesquelético. Os parasitas mais abundantes foram T. turgida (20/20) 100%, Cruzia sp., 80% (16/20), e Viannaia sp., 30% (6/20), seguidos pelos cistos de Sarcocystis sp., 30% (6/20). As lesões observadas causadas pelos vários tipos de parasitas foram: D. hayesi produziu broncopneumonia granulomatosa eosinofílica, P. mexicanus gerou pneumonia granulomatosa focal eosinofílica e Besnoitia sp. produziu pneumonia intersticial linfoplasmocítica eosinofílica focal. Ganthostoma e T. turgida geraram uma gastrite focal granulomatosa eosinofílica grave. Viannaia sp., Sarcocystis sp., Mathevotaenia sp. e Trichostrongylidae causaram enterite mucosa eosinofílica difusa. Cruzia sp. e Trichuris didelphis causaram tiflite mucosa eosinofílica difusa. Cistos de Sarcocystis spp. foram detectados no citoplasma das fibras musculares, sem alterações histológicas.
#2 - Carrier frequency of autosomal recessive disorders (BC, BLAD, FXID and CVM) in Holstein cows in Jalisco, Mexico
Abstract in English:
The hereditary autosomal recessive disorders bovine citrullinemia (BC), bovine leukocyte adhesion deficiency (BLAD), factor XI deficiency (FXID), and complex vertebral malformation (CVM) have affected dairy cattle breeding significantly around the world. This study examined the carrier frequency of BC, BLAD, FXID, and CVM autosomal recessive disorders in Bos taurus Holstein cows bred in the Altos Norte region of the state of Jalisco, Mexico. We extracted DNA from 408 random samples of peripheral blood, and then used polymerase chain reaction (PCR) to identify insertion mutations for FXID, and PCR with restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) for CVM, BC and BLAD. We visualized the PCR products using agarose gel electrophoresis stained with GelRed®. We found that 100% of wild-type (N/N) allele homozygous animals for genes CD18, ASS, and FXI were free of the mutations for BLAD, BC and FXID respectively. For gene SLC35A3 we estimated total carrier frequency of 10.3% and allele frequency of 5%.
