Genetic diseases in horses are highly relevant to health and have been the subject of significant studies. Over the past 30 years, several diseases have been described, and with the characterization of the pathogenic variant, control measures could be employed to prevent the spread of these variants in the population. Despite the decreasing costs of genetic variant assessment through larg…
Diarrhea syndrome in foals is an important cause of morbidity and mortality, affecting about 80% of animals in the first six months of life. It is an important problem in farms in Brazil and particularly in the State of São Paulo, in properties with high population density. The syndrome causes serious economic losses related to the animals' developmental delay, mortality and treatment exp…
Myotonia is the clinical sign characterized by delay in the muscle relaxation after voluntarycontraction and is related to the dystrophic or no dystrophic myopathies, and can be acquiredorigin (autoimmune neuromyotonia) or inherited. The main cause of non-dystrophichereditary myotonia are related with mutations in CLCN1 gene, encoding the major skeletalmuscle ion channel selective for chl…

Clostridioides difficile is an anaerobic, gram-positive bacterium, part of the intestinal microbiota of animals and humans. It has the ability to form spores, a characteristic that provides resistance to adverse environments. Its vegetative form can produce toxins (TcdA, TcdB, and CDT) responsible for gastrointestinal tract disturbances. In horses, the agent has been isolated from foals a…
Clostridioides difficile is a significant etiological agent of diarrhea in foals and represents a substantial problem for other animals and humans. This anaerobic bacterium harbors virulence genes responsible for its toxigenicity, adhesion, motility, sporulation, and antimicrobial resistance. Few studies have determined the importance of these genes in the development of diarrhea in foals…
Clostridioides difficile is one of the main etiological agents responsible for gastrointestinal diseases in humans and animals, known as Clostridioides difficile infection (CDI). It is a gram-positive, anaerobic, flagellated, and spore-forming bacterium that affects different species of animals and humans. Virulence is attributed to two main toxins, toxin A (TcdA) and toxin B (TcdB), with…
Clostridioides difficile is the causative agent of the clinical picture of pseudomembranous colitis in humans and mammals, resulting in diarrhea. However, the importance of this agent in cattle is not completely known, and further research is needed to better understand it. Therefore, the objective of the present work is to describe the occurrence of C. difficile in newborn calves, compar…
The foals at birth don't have adequate levels of serum immunoglobulins, so considered agamaglobulinêmicos. This is due to the placentation of the mare was epiteliocorial type, which hinders to transfer macromolecules such as Immunoglobulin (Ig). The colostrum is a primary Ig source for equine neonates, it's should be good quality and swallowed in the first hours of life, after twelve hour…
The Progressive Retinal Atrophy (PRA) or progressive retinal degeneration involves progressive genetic diseases described in more than 100 breeds of dogs. Initially, the main clinical finding is loss of night vision (nyctalopia), later loss of day vision and total bilateral blindness will be present. The mean age appearance of the first visually impaired is 3-5 years and the changes in el…

Clostridioides difficile is a pathogen associated with diarrhea in horses of all ages, representing a significant concern for animal health. This condition is exacerbated by the increasing antimicrobial resistance, particularly against widely used drugs such as metronidazole and vancomycin. Recent studies have identified multidrug-resistant isolates in various countries, underscoring the …
