RESUMO

Canine atopic dermatitis (CAD) is a chronic, pruritic, genetic, and inflammatory disease. Its pathogenesis is very complex and involves skin barrier defects and immune system dysfunction. This study aimed to investigate hematological, biochemical, clinical, and immunological parameters to contribute to the identification of biomarkers applied to CAD. The results of the analysis on hematologic and clinical parameters showed increased neutrophil numbers and decreased lymphocyte counts. The ex vivo immunophenotyping of leukocytes demonstrated increased counts of circulating neutrophils, in addition to a high frequency of CD4+ T-cells and elevated CD4+/CD8+ T-cell ratio, which were the hallmark of atopic animals. Moreover, atopic dogs presented a mixed immune response, displaying both CD4+ and CD8+ T-cell subsets as relevant sources of IFN-γ and IL-4 cytokines. The morbidity analyzed by the CADESI index demonstrated that CAD severity is related to the low frequency of circulating CD14+ monocytes, CD21+ B-cells, and CD8+ T-cells. The reported biomarkers would be useful in CAD monitoring for treatment and prognosis analysis.

RESUMO

Bovine enzootic haematuria (BEH) is caused by prolonged ingestion of toxic principles of bracken fern, essentially by Pteridium spp. In northwestern Argentina, this disease has a great economic impact ant it is attributed a chronic consumption to Pteridium arachnoideum. This paper describes two endemic areas for enzootic hematuria due to the consumption of Pteris deflexa and Pteris plumula. Two areas where P. deflexa and P. plumula are endemic, but free of Pteridium species, were devised and seven farms were visited. The disease was confirmed based on the presence of clinically affected animals. In four necropsies bleeding neoplastic lesions were observed in the mucosa of the urinary bladder. At phytochemical analysis, both ptaquiloside and pterosin B were found in P. deflexa and P. plumula. Thus, the consumption of P. deflexa and P. plumula can also cause BEH.
