Activation of macrophages by extracellular vesicles derived from Babesia-infected red blood cells

open access: yesInfection and Immunity
Babesia microti is the primary cause of human babesiosis in North America. Despite the emergence of the disease in recent years, the pathogenesis and immune response to B. microti infection remain poorly understood.

The differentiation of Babesia rodhaini, Babesia microti and Babesia muratovi infecting mice on the basis of morphology, pathogenicity and serology

open access: yes, 1980
Methods for differentiating Babesia rodhaini, B. microti and B. muratovi were examined. The parasites were injected into mice and the course of infection and morphology of the parasites studied by the use of thin blood smears stained by Giemsa's stain.

Frequency of Piroplasms Babesia microti and Cytauxzoon felis in Stray Cats from Northern Italy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Emerging diseases caused by piroplasms pose a health risk for man and other animals, and domestic cats have been proposed as potential reservoirs for some piroplasm infections. The aim of this study was to identify the frequency of the piroplasms Babesia

[Seroprevalance of Babesia microti in humans living in rural areas of the Sinop region]. [Sinop Yöresinde Kirsal Kesimde Yaşayan Insanlarda Babesia microti Seroprevalansi.]

open access: yes, 2010
Babesia species are blood parasites which transmitted by ticks and located in erythrocytes. Babesia divergens in Europe and Babesia microti in America are the most significant etiologic agents of human babesiosis cases.

Glyceraldehyde-3-Phosphate Dehydrogenase of Babesia microti Is a Plasminogen- and Actin-Binding Protein

open access: yesFrontiers in Veterinary Science, 2019
Babesia microti, an intraerythrocytic protozoa, can cause an emerging tick-borne disease—Human babesiosis. The parasite can successfully invade host red blood cells owing to the assistance of molecules expressed by babesia.

The Babesia observational antibody (BAOBAB) study: A cross-sectional evaluation of Babesia in two communities in Kilosa district, Tanzania.

open access: yesPLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2019
BackgroundBabesia, a tick-borne genus of intraerythrocytic parasites, is understudied in humans outside of established high-endemic areas. There is a paucity of data on Babesia in Africa, despite evidence that it is regionally present.

Prevalence of Babesia microti in Free-Ranging Baboons and African Green Monkeys

open access: yes, 2011
Babesia microti-like parasites have been reported to infect captive non-human primates (NHPs). However, studies on the prevalence of Babesia spp. in free-ranging NHPs are lacking. This investigation aimed at determining the prevalence of B.

Investigation of Babesia microti in small rodents in Europe

open access: yes, 2019
Although Babesia microti is main causative agent of human babesiosis in the USA, serological evidence of B. microti infection have been reported in Europe. Recently, two asymptomatic cases of human infection with B.

Enzyme Actitivies Related to Glucose Metabolism in Babesia microti and Babesia rodhaini.

open access: yesJournal of Veterinary Medical Science, 1995
A comparative study was carried out on the glucose metabolism in Babesia microti (BM) and Babesia rodhaini (BR) by analyzing the enzyme activities. The lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) activity in BM showed significantly lower values than that in BR, whereas citrate synthase (CS) and malate dehydrogenase (MDH) activities were remarkably higher in BM.
