Here is what Cohen said about research involving five foals: "We found these CpGs are effective at stimulating immune cells of very young foals, suggesting that CpGs should be further evaluated as a way to improve the immune response of newborn foals to help protect them against bacterial infections, such as Rhodococcus equi (the leading cause of foal pneumonia)."

While maternal antibodies obtained through colostrum provide some degree of protection, immunity against intracellular pathogens, such as viruses and bacteria (Rhodococcus equi, for example), is dependent upon the generation of cell-mediated immune (CMI) responses.
