Detection and characterization of an emerging type of Babesia sp. similar to Babesia motasi for the first case of human babesiosis and ticks in Korea

Emerging Microbes and Infections, 2019
Babesiosis is a tick-transmitted intraerythrocytic zoonosis. In Korea, the first mortalities were reported in 2005 due to Babesia sp. detection in sheep; herein we report epidemiological and genetic characteristics of a second case of babesiosis ...

A flow cytometric assessment of the lymphocyte immunophenotypes in dogs naturally infected with Babesia rossi [PDF]

, 2017
Immunity to Babesia infection requires both innate and acquired responses, including cell mediated- and humoral responses. The aims of this study were to investigate the variation in selected peripheral blood lymphocyte phenotypes in dogs with virulent ...

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

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

PLoS 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.

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

Frontiers 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.
