Validation of Babesia proteasome as a drug target
Babesiosis is a tick-transmitted zoonosis caused by apicomplexan parasites of the genus Babesia. Treatment of this emerging malaria-related disease has relied on antimalarial drugs and antibiotics.

Both active and passive questing ticks, Hyalomma excavatum and Ixodes ricinus, were assessed for behavioural responses to two novel plant‐derived repellent volatile organic compound blends. Both tick species were repelled by the products, and both novo blends were significantly more repellent than currently available commercial products.

Experimental Babesia Divergens Infection in Reindeer (Rangifer Tarandusj
Two non-splenectomized reindeer developed fever, icterus and haemoglobinuria after inoculation intravenously with cattle blood containing Babesia divergens. 14 and 15 days after inoculation agglutination of Babesia-containing erythrocytes from the two reindeer was observed in blood films.

A Conserved Subtilisin Protease Identified in Babesia divergens Merozoites [PDF]
Invasion of erythrocytes is an integral part of the Babesia divergens life cycle. Serine proteases have been shown to play an important role in invasion by related Apicomplexan parasites such as the malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum. Here we demonstrate the presence of two dominant serine proteases in asexual B.

Artificial intelligence‐powered microscopy: Transforming the landscape of parasitology
Abstract Microscopy and image analysis play a vital role in parasitology research; they are critical for identifying parasitic organisms and elucidating their complex life cycles. Despite major advancements in imaging and analysis, several challenges remain. These include the integration of interdisciplinary data; information derived from various model

Splenic, Nonhairy, B‐Cell Lymphoma Presenting as Fever of Unknown Origin
Fever of unknown origin (FUO) is a common diagnostic dilemma faced by internists on a fairly regular basis. A wide variety of infectious, autoimmune, and neoplastic conditions can present with FUO. Splenic B‐cell lymphoma/leukemia with prominent nucleolus (SBLPN), formerly known as hairy cell leukemia‐variant, is a hematologic malignancy that often ...

Babesiosis is a vector‐borne protozoal disease primarily transmitted by the Ixodes scapularis tick, though it can also be transmitted through blood transfusions from infected donors. The illness can be asymptomatic or present with mild flu‐like symptoms.

Guidelines for the Detection of Babesia and Theileria Parasites. [PDF]
The genera Babesia and Theileria (phylum Apicomplexa, order Piroplasmida) are mainly transmitted by Ixodid ticks in which the sexual part of their life cycle followed by sporogony takes place.

Spatiotemporal Dynamics of Blood Parasite Infections and Impacts on Avian Health and Reproduction
ABSTRACT Parasitic infections are ubiquitous in nature, but their consequences are often difficult to evaluate in wildlife. This is particularly the case for chronic infections for which fitness impacts can be subtle or confounded with other intrinsic and extrinsic factors.

Some vector borne parasites in Swedish reindeer (Rangifer tarandus tarandus L).
A review presented at the Fifth European Regional Meeting of the Society for Vector Ecology, September 2.-6. 1990, Uppsala, Sweden. The clinical and pathological manifestations as well as some meat hygienic aspects of Megatrypanum trypanosomes, Babesia ...
