Abstract

Molecular detection of feline coronavirus (FCoV) is essential for diagnosing feline infectious peritonitis (FIP). This study aimed to confirm FCoV infection in clinically suspected cats and to describe the associated hematological and cytological changes. Reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR), targeting the N gene, was performed on 20 cats exhibiting clinical signs consistent with FCoV infection, including vomiting, diarrhea, abdominal effusion, rhinitis, uveitis, and ataxia, yielding the expected 386 bp amplicon in all cases. Ascitic fluid was preferred for RT-PCR when available, whereas blood samples were analyzed for hematology. Hematologic profiles revealed consistent inflammatory changes. The mean total leukocyte count was 22.8 ± 12.1 × 10³/µL, and the mean platelet count was 769 ± 505 × 10³/µL. Neutrophilia and leukocytosis were the most common abnormalities, observed in 55% (11/20) of cats, followed by monocytosis in 15% (3/20), lymphopenia in 5% (1/20), and lymphocytosis in 30% (6/20). Platelet counts showed marked variation, ranging from severe thrombocytopenia in 40% (8/20) to extreme thrombocytosis in 35% (7/20). Cytologic examination of ascitic fluid from five cats revealed macrophage-predominant exudates with moderate numbers of neutrophils and few lymphocytes. Macrophages were often vacuolated and contained phagocytosed debris, whereas some neutrophils appeared degenerated. The background consisted of proteinaceous material consistent with a high-protein effusion. The integration of molecular, hematologic, and cytologic findings provides a multimodal diagnostic approach that improves diagnostic reliability. These findings emphasize the importance of combining PCR with clinicopathological data to enhance the early and accurate detection of FIP in multicat environments.

Abstract

Lumpy Skin Disease (LSD) has emerged in Malaysia in recent years, causing significant economic losses and raising industry concerns. With limited data on the local outbreak's impact, this qualitative study investigates the challenges faced by the Malaysian ruminant industry during the 2021–2022 outbreak. Using purposive focus group interviews, the study targeted key government officials to identify challenges and propose strategic interventions for disease management. The findings provide valuable insights for future improvements. A total of 20 responses were successfully analyzed using thematic analysis, yielding three main themes with eight subthemes related to LSD challenges, and four themes with nine subthemes representing multifactorial strategic intervention approaches. Thematic analysis revealed multifactorial challenges and control strategies for LSD: (i) knowledge gaps in disease emergence, (ii) systemic and socio-economic barriers to effective LSD control, and (iii) governance and policy limitations, including issues related to culling policies and inadequate border control. The multifaceted approaches to controlling LSD include improving decision-making and response times, establishing emergency preparedness guidelines such as training and simulation exercises, and enhancing surveillance and investigation strategies. The findings are based on expert opinions from government officials, which may limit the discussion to regulatory improvements. Future research at the farm level could provide more comprehensive insights for LSD management. Overall, the study’s findings can inform the development of standard operating procedures for LSD management, supporting better decision-making and budget allocation in the ruminant industry.

Abstract

Escherichia coli normally inhabits the intestinal tract of poultry as a commensal organism; however, specific strains such as avian pathogenic E. coli (APEC) may become opportunistic pathogens responsible for colibacillosis in birds. The inappropriate use of antibiotics can increase antimicrobial resistance, which may impact public health. This study aimed to detect the presence of the iroN virulence gene specifically in multidrug-resistant (MDR) E. coli isolates associated with APEC obtained from duck cloacal swabs collected at live markets in Surabaya. This study was designed as a descriptive cross-sectional survey, and the results are presented as prevalence proportions without inferential or correlation statistical testing, as iroN detection was performed exclusively on MDR isolates. Samples were collected from five live markets in Surabaya and cultured on MacConkey agar (MCA). E. coli was identified morphologically through Gram staining and biochemically using Triple Sugar Iron Agar (TSIA), Sulfide Indole Motility (SIM), Simmons Citrate Agar (SCA), indole, and methyl red–Voges–Proskauer (MR–VP) tests. Antimicrobial susceptibility testing was performed on all confirmed E. coli isolates (n = 120), and PCR analysis of the iroN gene was subsequently conducted only on MDR isolates (n = 14). The identification rate of E. coli in this study was 83.3% (120/144). Resistance to erythromycin was 81.7% (98/120), which likely reflects the intrinsic resistance of Gram-negative bacteria to macrolides rather than acquired antimicrobial resistance. This was followed by resistance to gentamicin at 19.2% (23/120), ciprofloxacin at 14.2% (17/120), aztreonam at 3.3% (4/120), and chloramphenicol at 2.5% (3/120). The prevalence of multidrug resistance (MDR) was 11.6% (14/120). Among these MDR isolates, 42.8% (6/14) were positive for the iroN virulence gene. No statistical association between MDR status and iroN carriage was assessed because non-MDR isolates were not screened for iroN. These findings provide baseline descriptive data on MDR and iroN-positive E. coli in traditional markets in Surabaya based on a limited panel of representative antimicrobial classes, without inferring specific resistance mechanisms such as extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL) production.

Abstract

Polymorphisms in exon 3 of the leptin gene have been linked to reproductive and production traits in sheep. However, comprehensive in silico studies that combine comparative sequence analysis, phylogenetic relationships, gene expression profiling, and protein–protein interaction (PPI) networks across various sheep breeds remain limited. A total of 21 sheep leptin DNA sequences were extracted from NCBI GenBank. The leptin DNA sequences were aligned using BioEdit to identify single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and amino acid changes. Phylogenetic relationships among various sheep breeds were analyzed using Clustal Omega version 1.2.4. Leptin gene expression in sheep was analyzed using the Expression Atlas database, and leptin protein interactions with other proteins were evaluated using the STRING platform. The results showed that the leptin gene is highly expressed in the hypothalamus and moderately expressed in reproductive organs, highlighting its important role in regulating energy metabolism and reproductive function. Protein–protein interaction (PPI) analysis using STRING revealed a strong interaction between leptin and its receptor, which activates key signaling pathways, including the JAK2–STAT3, PI3K, and MAPK pathways. Genetic analysis revealed a predominance of missense mutations over silent mutations, with SNPs g.92G>A (Arginine→Glutamine) and g.208G>T (Valine→Leucine) appearing consistently across several breeds. Phylogenetic analysis also revealed substantial genetic diversity among sheep breeds, with clustering patterns reflecting distinct evolutionary origins. These findings demonstrate that integrating comparative genomics with functional bioinformatics analyses provides deeper insight into leptin exon 3 variation and serves as a comprehensive in silico framework for future functional validation and association studies in sheep.

Abstract

Translational anatomy is a field dedicated to converting fundamental scientific research into clinical applications. The rat humerus is one of the important bones used in the development of new techniques, the evaluation of pathophysiology, and the design of treatment interventions. This study aimed to provide accurate reference data on humeral morphology and to identify differences in humeral morphology among various rat strains. Morphologic, morphometric, and geometric morphometric methods were employed. For this purpose, a total of forty-eight humeri from the most commonly used laboratory rat strains were compared across strains and with humans. According to the statistical results, significant differences were observed between the groups in terms of greatest length, greatest length of the lateral part, greatest length of the medial part, width of the diaphysis, and length of the trochlea (p < 0.05). The breadth of the proximal end was greatest in the Wistar Albino strain, whereas the other strains exhibited smaller values. However, based on the principal component 1 results, the highest variation was observed in the Lewis strain, while the lowest variation was found in the Wistar Albino strain. In the overall shape analysis, Brown Norway was similar to Wistar Albino, whereas Sprague Dawley was similar to Lewis. The Wistar Albino strain appears suitable for proximal humeral studies, the Brown Norway strain for investigations focusing on shaft circumference, and the Sprague Dawley and Lewis strains for distal humeral studies. These findings are expected to contribute to the development of new shoulder prostheses, pins, external fixator materials, and innovative surgical techniques.

Abstract

This study investigated the diversity, density, and distribution of cattle-infesting flies in smallholder systems in the Malang region, East Java, Indonesia, where high fly burdens compromise animal health and productivity, but spatial evidence is limited. In June and December 2024, we surveyed 400 cattle across 13 sub-districts. Flies were identified morphologically, supported by a YOLOv8 computer vision workflow. Relative abundance, Shannon diversity (H′), body-site predilection, and associations with location, breed, body condition score (BCS), and housing/hygiene were analyzed, and spatial patterns were mapped. A total of 6,237 flies, representing nine distinct species, were recorded. Haematobia irritans exigua dominated the diversity (n = 2,180), followed by Musca domestica (1,455), Stomoxys spp. (S. bengalensis 1,083; S. sitiens 600; S. calcitrans 523), M. autumnalis (370), Morellia simplex (13), M. crassirostris (9), and Tabanus rubidus (4). The highest diversity was found in Malang Regency (H′ = 1.55). The highest relative abundance of H. irritans exigua was observed in Malang City (50.3%) and Malang Regency (44.7%), while M. domestica predominated in Batu City (43.8%). Haematophagous flies concentrated on the lower and upper body regions. Higher burdens were associated with black or brown solid coat color, fat cattle with high body condition scores (BCS 7–9), and the Simmental breed. H. irritans exigua predominated in individually housed cattle under poor hygiene conditions. The YOLOv8-based identification system demonstrated high performance (mAP 99.5%, precision 74.4%, recall 94.6%) in supporting microscopic identification. Further improvements, however, require additional model training with larger datasets.

Abstract

Staphylococcus aureus is a common cause of dermatological, wound, and reproductive tract infections in companion animals, and its increasing antimicrobial resistance poses challenges for effective treatment. Data on resistance patterns in small animals in the Mekong Delta remain limited. This study aimed to determine the prevalence of S. aureus in clinical samples from dogs and cats and to characterize the antimicrobial susceptibility patterns of the isolates. Clinical samples were collected from dogs and cats showing signs of infection at veterinary clinics in Vinh Long Province, Vietnam. S. aureus was isolated using Mannitol Salt Agar and identified by standard biochemical tests. Antimicrobial susceptibility was determined using the Kirby–Bauer disk diffusion method according to CLSI guidelines. Of the 32 clinical specimens examined, 62.5% were positive for S. aureus. The prevalence was higher in dogs than in cats and higher in females than in males. Skin exudates accounted for the largest proportion of positive samples. Among the 60 isolates tested, resistance to ampicillin was highest at 90%. Increased resistance was also observed for erythromycin and trimethoprim–sulfamethoxazole. Susceptibility remained moderate to high for chloramphenicol, tetracycline, and levofloxacin. Multidrug resistance was common, with 22% of isolates resistant to ≥6 antibiotics. S. aureus is a frequent pathogen in small-animal clinical cases in Vinh Long Province and shows considerable resistance to commonly used antibiotics. The high rate of multidrug resistance highlights the need for routine culture and susceptibility testing and supports the implementation of antimicrobial stewardship in veterinary practice.

Abstract

Wing morphometry plays a crucial role in avian functional ecology, influencing flight performance, energy efficiency, and sexual selection. However, quantitative data on wing development in lovebirds (Agapornis fischeri), remain scarce. This study aimed to quantify and compare the growth of wing flexion width, wing extension width, and wingspan in male and female lovebirds at 4, 5, and 6 months of age to determine the onset and extent of sexual dimorphism. A total of 22 lovebirds (11 males and 11 females) were acclimatized under controlled environmental conditions and fed a millet-based diet. Wing measurements were obtained in accordance with animal welfare protocols using standardized morphometric techniques. Data were analyzed using Multivariate Analysis of Variance (MANOVA) followed by Tukey’s post hoc test at a 95% confidence level, and growth patterns were evaluated using linear regression analysis. Results showed significant (p < 0.05) sex- and age-related differences in all morphometric parameters. Males exhibited consistently higher mean values for wing flexion, extension, and wingspan at every age, with steeper linear growth slopes compared with females. The steady, positive correlation between age and wing dimensions indicates continuous and proportional development during the juvenile phase. These findings suggest that sexual dimorphism in wing morphology becomes evident as early as four months of age and intensifies with maturation. This study provides baseline trajectories of wing morphometrics in lovebirds, establishing reference standards that are valuable for avian biology, welfare, and sexing applications in psittacine species.

Abstract

This study presents a comprehensive gross anatomical and histological characterization of the alimentary tract in the fruit bat (Rousettus amplexicaudatus), a frugivorous megachiropteran species whose digestive morphology remains incompletely described. Seven adult bats (four males, three females) were captured in Banyuwangi, East Java, and examined through standardized morphometric, gross anatomical, and histometric analyses. Euthanasia was performed using Xylazine and Ketamine, followed by systematic dissection and measurement of body and visceral parameters. Histological preparations of the esophagus, stomach, duodenum, jejunum, ileum, and colon were stained with hematoxylin and eosin and evaluated microscopically. Results revealed minimal sexual dimorphism in external and internal morphometric traits, except for a significantly longer esophagus in males (p < 0.05). Gross anatomy showed a simple, glandular stomach and an elongated intestinal tract, consistent with adaptations for rapid carbohydrate digestion. Histomorphometric evaluation indicated comparable mucosal and muscular thickness between sexes, suggesting functional uniformity in digestive performance. Histological observations identified a stratified squamous esophageal lining, glandular gastric mucosa, prominent intestinal villi with crypts of Lieberkühn, and well-developed Peyer’s patches, highlighting efficient nutrient absorption and mucosal immune function. Overall, the findings demonstrate that fruit bat possesses a structurally specialized yet sexually consistent digestive system optimized for frugivory. This integrative dataset fills critical gaps in bat digestive morphology, providing a standardized anatomical and histological reference for comparative physiology, dietary adaptation, and host–pathogen interaction studies in megachiropteran bats.

Abstract

Antimicrobial-resistant Escherichia coli is widely used as an indicator organism in antimicrobial resistance (AMR) surveillance, with most studies focusing on livestock. However, AMR in companion animals, particularly exotic pet species in Indonesia, remains poorly explored. This preliminary study aimed to presumptively detect resistant E. coli in pigeons, civets, and iguanas housed in pet shops located on Seutui’s main road in the city of Banda Aceh, Indonesia. A descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted to collect 15 fecal samples from pigeons (n = 9), civets (n = 3), and iguanas (n = 3) kept in three pet shops from June to July 2025. E. coli isolates were confirmed using Eosin Methylene Blue agar (EMBA). Antibiotic susceptibility testing (AST) was performed using the Kirby–Bauer method against five antibiotics: cephalothin (CEP, 30 μg), sulfamethoxazole/trimethoprim (SXT, 25 μg), ciprofloxacin (CIP, 5 μg), tetracycline (TE, 30 μg), and chloramphenicol (CHL, 30 μg). Presumptive E. coli positivity was confirmed in 46.67% (7/15) of the fecal samples. Species-specific positivity rates were 44.44% (4/9), 33.33% (1/3), and 66.67% (2/3) in pigeons, civets, and iguanas, respectively. The multidrug resistance (MDR) profile across all isolates was 85.71% (6/7). Species-specific MDR was observed in 75.00% (3/4) of pigeon-derived isolates and 100% of both civet-derived (n = 1) and iguana-derived isolates (n = 2). In conclusion, multidrug-resistant E. coli was detected in pigeons, civets, and iguanas housed in pet shops. A One Health approach and mitigation framework should be implemented to control AMR in pet shops and other relevant veterinary settings.
