Babesia divergens: cloning of a Ran binding protein 1 homologue
Veterinary Parasitology, 2003Babesia divergens is an Apicomplexa transmitted to bovines by its acarian vector, the tick I. ricinus. Babesia divergens merozoites have an intraerythrocytic development in the blood of infected mammals. The nucleocytoplasmic transport system in this parasite is not yet characterized and no protein involvement in such transport has been described.

Babesia divergens in splenectomised calves: titration of the infective dose
Research in Veterinary Science, 1977Two experiments were carried out in which Babesia divergens was titrated in splenectomised calves. In the first experiment, a linear relationship was observed between infective dose (10(5)--10(9)) parasites) and onset of disease. In the second experiment, a similar trend was observed for infective doses of 10(2)--10(6) parasites, but 10(3) parasites ...

Babesia divergens-like parasites identified in human babesiosis cases in Missouri and Kentucky and in eastern cottontail rabbits (Sylvilagus floridanus) on Nantucket Island, Massachusetts, share identical small subunit ribosomal RNA gene sequences. This sequence is 99.8% identical to that of Babesia divergens, suggesting that the U.S. parasite may be B.

Babesia divergens: the immunisation of splenectomised calves using irradiated piroplasms
Research in Veterinary Science, 1979Groups of three splenectomised calves were inoculated with 1 . 2 x 10(10) Babesia divergens-infected erythrocytes irradiated at 24, 28, 32, 36 and 40 kilorads. Control calves were inoculated with 1 . 2 x 10(7) or 1 . 2 x 10(4) non-irradiated parasites. While control animals all experienced severe reactions, animals receiving blood irradiated at 24, 28 ...

A strain of Babesia divergens, attenuated after long term culture
Research in Veterinary Science, 1989The Weybridge strain of Babesia divergens became less virulent after 18 months in culture and was believed to be attenuated. Inoculations with the attenuated line using as many as 5 x 10(8) infected erythrocytes failed to raise a normal infection in Mongolian gerbils (Meriones unguiculatus) whereas, with the line that had been passaged from culture ...

Development of Culture-Based Serological Assays to DiagnoseBabesia divergensInfections
Vector-Borne and Zoonotic Diseases, 2012Babesioses are hematic tick-borne diseases that induce malaria-like disorders in domestic, wild animals, and humans. Although indirect fluorescent antibody test (IFAT) and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) commercial kits are available to test the presence of antibodies against most Babesia species, no kit exists to serologically diagnose the ...

Chemotherapy of Babesia divergens in the gerbil, Meriones unguiculatus
Research in Veterinary Science, 1983It was found that surprisingly low doses of four babesicides were effective against Babesia divergens in gerbils and it was concluded that this was due to the involvement of host resistance, which may be of a non-specific nature. The efficacy of the drugs relative to each other was the same in gerbils as in cattle and this host-parasite system is ...

Babesia divergens in France: descriptive and analytical epidemiology.
Parassitologia, 2000Babesia divergens cause of bovine babesiosis transmitted by Ixodes ricinus, is widely spread especially in West, Central and South-West parts of France. It occurs with two annual peaks, in spring and autumn. The study was carried out during a period of two years (1991-1993) in four farms in the Sarthe area, in order to know the distribution and the ...

[Ticks (Ixodidae) in zoonotic propagation of piroplasma Babesia micorti and Babesia divergens].
Wiadomosci parazytologiczne, 1996Recent advance in the knowledge of the role of Ixodidae in the epidemiology of human piroplasmosis is reviewed, with special emphasis on Babesia species which cause diseases in man. The problem in Europe came to medical attention since 20 cases have been reported, and most of them due to B. divergens.
