Application of molecular approach in combination with providing treatment and control measures for combating Babesia bovis and Babesia bigemina infections in small scale livestock farms in Thailand [PDF]

Parasite Epidemiology and Control
Bovine babesiosis is a tick-borne disease that is caused by apicomplexan protozoan parasite in the genus of Babesia. Babesia infections affect cattle health, reduce milk and meat production and lead to economic losses in tropical and subtropical ...

Immunization against a Conserved Surface Polysaccharide Stimulates Bovine Antibodies with Opsonic Killing Activity but Does Not Protect against Babesia bovis Challenge. [PDF]

Pathogens, 2021
Arthropod-borne apicomplexan pathogens remain a great concern and challenge for disease control in animals and humans. In order to prevent Babesia infection, the discovery of antigens that elicit protective immunity is essential to establish approaches ...

Expression of sex-specific molecular markers by Babesia bovis gametes [PDF]

Parasites & Vectors
Background Bovine babesiosis caused by Babesia bovis is one of the most important tick-borne diseases of cattle in tropical and subtropical regions. Babesia bovis parasites have a complex lifecycle, including development within the mammalian host and ...

Identification, expression and characterisation of a Babesia bovis hexose transporter [PDF]

Molecular and Biochemical Parasitology, 2008
Babesia are tick-transmitted haemoprotozoan parasites that infect cattle, with an estimated 500 million at risk worldwide. Here, two predicted hexose transporters (BboHT1 and 2) have been identified within the Babesia bovis genome. BboHT1, having 40% and 47% amino acid sequence similarity compared with the human (GLUT1) and Plasmodium falciparum (PfHT)

Structural and antigenic characterization of Babesia Bovis HAP2 domains. [PDF]

Sci Rep
Abstract The tick-borne apicomplexan parasite Babesia bovis causes bovine babesiosis which leads to enormous food and economic losses around the world. The existing resources to manage this disease are limited and have pitfalls, therefore, introduction of new strategies is urgently needed. B.

Molecular and antigenic characterisation of ribosomal phosphoprotein P0 from Babesia bovis [PDF]

Memorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 2009
Babesia bovis is a tick-borne pathogen that remains an important constraint for the development of cattle industries in tropical and subtropical regions of the world. Effective control can be achieved by vaccination with live attenuated phenotypes of the

Prevalence of Anaplasma marginale, Babesia bovis, and Babesia bigemina in cattle in the Campos de Lages region, Santa Catarina state, Brazil, estimated by multiplex-PCR

Parasite Epidemiology and Control, 2019
This study aimed to determine the prevalence of three common hemoparasites (Anaplasma marginale, Babesia bovis and Babesia bigemina) in cattle from 16 counties in the Campos de Lages region, Santa Catarina state, Brazil, and the factors affecting disease

The Babesia bovis hap2 gene is not required for blood stage replication, but expressed upon in vitro sexual stage induction. [PDF]

PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2017
Babesia bovis, is a tick borne apicomplexan parasite responsible for important cattle losses globally. Babesia parasites have a complex life cycle including asexual replication in the mammalian host and sexual reproduction in the tick vector.

Silencing expression of the Rhipicephalus microplus vitellogenin receptor gene blocks Babesia bovis transmission and interferes with oocyte maturation

Parasites & Vectors, 2019
Background Rhipicephalus microplus is an efficient biological vector of Babesia bovis, a causative agent of bovine babesiosis. Babesia bovis is passed transovarially to the next generation of ticks, which then transmit the parasite to naïve animals.
