We evaluated by nested PCR reaction, different cow secretions from a herd with 48% of prevalence of bovine tuberculosis (BTB), seeking to determine niches where Mycobacterium bovis could be found. Postmortem examination of 18 (75%) tuberculin reacting cows allowed demonstrates BTB-compatible lesions in six, all of them PCR positives in milk and four in colostra samples. Our results showed that up to 62% of the colostra analysed contained M. bovis DNA, whereas only 18% of milk gave a positive reaction. Moreover, in bronchoalveolar lavages from cattle with compatible lesions in lungs or lymph nodes, where macrophages account up to 90% of cells, we did not find evidences of M. bovis. Altogether, these results suggest that differences in the anti-bacterial capacity of bovine macrophages, dependent upon microenvironment and organ-specific factors, exist. Alternatively, we hypothesize that hypoxic conditions that are encountered in mammary glands macrophages could induce M. bovis entrance into a 'dormancy-like' state, and that the high number of colostra samples were M. bovis was detected, could be an indicator of reactivation during 'peripartum'.
A través de cartografía narrativa y participativa se registra la memoria de las acciones de jóvenes brigadistas posteriores al sismo del 19 de septiembre de 2017 en la ciudad de México. A partir de la tipología de acciones, las redes de organización, trayectorias individuales y colectivas de las brigadas, los efectos emotivos de la experiencia de ser voluntarios, y los cambios en el uso de la ciudad posteriores al sismo permiten llevar a cabo un análisis de la construcción subjetiva de los jóvenes, un análisis comparativo con la generación anterior que vivió el sismo de 1985, y también una primera aproximación del impacto socio político derivado de la participación de la población civil. Se sugiere que la acción voluntaria tras el terremoto ha permitido reconstruir simbólicamente la ciudad porque la acción de los jóvenes en lugares específicos ha producido nuevos lugares emocionales, así como sujetos políticos. Construir lugares significa construir la ciudad, una forma prefigurativa y emergente de acción política en un mundo donde la cultura urbana es dominante.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
