The transmission of African Animal Trypanosomiasis (Nagana) in two districts in the forest zone of Ghana [PDF]

, 2021
AbstractThe African Animal Trypanosomiasis (nagana) is caused by several species of trypanosome species which results in significant clinical diseases. This consequently leads to huge economic losses. We carried out a cross-sectional survey to investigate the composition of vectors, parasite diversity and intensities in two districts in the Eastern ...

One Health – an Ecological and Evolutionary Framework for tackling Neglected Zoonotic Diseases [PDF]

, 2015
Understanding the complex population biology and transmission ecology of multihost parasites has been declared as one of the major challenges of biomedical sciences for the 21st century and the Neglected Zoonotic Diseases (NZDs) are perhaps the most ...

Equine trypanosomiasis, a systematic review and meta‐analyses: Prevalence, morbidity and mortality

Equine Veterinary Journal, Volume 58, Issue 2, Page 291-319, March 2026.
Abstract Background Equine trypanosomiasis is a neglected protozoal disease. Objectives To perform a systematic search of literature to explore: (1) In equines what is the global geographical distribution and prevalence of trypanosomiasis? In low and middle‐income countries (LMICs) is trypanosomiasis more prevalent than in higher‐income countries (HICs)

Prevalence of trypanosomes associated with drug resistance in Shimba Hills, Kwale County, Kenya

BMC Research Notes, 2020
Objective Animal African trypanosomiasis (AAT) is a life-threatening vector-borne disease, caused by trypanosome parasites, which are principally transmitted by tsetse flies.

Wing Interferential Patterns (WIPs) and machine learning, a step toward automatized tsetse (Glossina spp.) identification

Scientific Reports, 2022
A simple method for accurately identifying Glossina spp in the field is a challenge to sustain the future elimination of Human African Trypanosomiasis (HAT) as a public health scourge, as well as for the sustainable management of African Animal ...

Efferocytosis‐Driven Polyamine Metabolism in Macrophages Enhances Cancer Stem Cell Enrichment after Chemotherapy in Ovarian Cancer

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 8, 9 February 2026.
Chemotherapy‐induced efferocytosis drives ovarian cancer stem cell enrichment. By engulfing apoptotic cancer cells, macrophages upregulate ODC1 and produce putrescine, which elevates osteopontin (OPN) expression. Secreted OPN then activates the CD44 receptor on cancer cells, promoting stemness and chemoresistance.

Immunodiagnosis of bovine trypanosomiasis in Anambra and Imo states, Nigeria, using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay: zoonotic implications to human health [PDF]

Journal of Vector Borne Diseases, 2008
Background & objectives: The prevalence of trypanosomiasis was studied in cattle, being a major source of animal protein in Nigeria, thus, a very likely means of spread of Human African Trypano-somosis (HAT).

Experiences of the one-health approach by the Uganda Trypanosomiasis Control Council and its secretariat in the control of zoonotic sleeping sickness in Uganda

Parasite Epidemiology and Control, 2020
Elimination of sleeping sickness from endemic countries like Uganda is key if the affected communities are to exploit the potential of the available human and livestock resources (production and productivity). Trypanosoma brucei rhodesiense, the parasite

Microfluidics-based approaches to the isolation of African trypanosomes [PDF]

, 2017
African trypanosomes are responsible for significant levels of disease in both humans and animals. The protozoan parasites are free-living flagellates, usually transmitted by arthropod vectors, including the tsetse fly. In the mammalian host they live in
