Transfer of Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae-specific cell mediated immunity to neonatal piglets

Abstract Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae is the primary agent of enzootic pneumonia in pigs. Although cell mediated immunity (CMI) may play a role in protection against M. hyopneumoniae, its transfer from sows to their offspring is poorly characterized. Therefore, maternally-derived CMI was studied in pigl...
