متن کاملGenetic resistance to bacterial diseases of animals.
Despite traditional disease control measures, losses attributable to infectious diseases continue to impede the livestock industries. An alternative approach to this problem is genetic disease resistance involving both immune and non-immune mechanisms, which is the inherent capacity of a previously unexposed animal to resist disease when challenged by pathogens.

متن کاملGenetic aspects of sheep parasitic diseases.
There is evidence of genetically determined host resistance mechanisms for most of the sheep parasites evaluated. The mechanisms vary; from no or reduced establishment, early expulsion, to suppression of parasites resulting in reduced size and fecundity. There is a need to integrate breeding for parasite resistance with the genetic improvement of production traits in farm animals, aiming for op...
متن کاملFemale-specific aspects in the pharmacotherapy of chronic cardiovascular diseases.
Differences in pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and physiology contribute to the phenomenon that women and men frequently respond differently to cardiovascular drugs. Hormonal influences, in addition, can play an important role: for example, the menstrual cycle, menopause, and pregnancy--as a result of fluctuations in concentrations of sexual steroids, and of changes in total body water--can...
