Molecular identification and diversity of gastrointestinal apicomplexan protozoa in pigs in the Republic of Korea [PDF]

Scientific Reports
The genera Cryptosporidium, Eimeria, and Cystoisospora cause gastrointestinal diseases in pigs that can lead to economic losses in the pig industry. Despite their importance, the molecular epidemiology and species diversity of these parasites remain ...

Efficacy of injectable toltrazuril-iron combination product and oral toltrazuril against early experimental infection of suckling piglets with Cystoisospora suis [PDF]

Parasites & Vectors, 2019
Background Toltrazuril is frequently administered for the metaphylactic control of piglet cystoisosporosis. In a previous study, the efficacy of parenteral toltrazuril (45 mg/piglet, Group Forceris®) applied on the 2nd day of life (dol), and of oral ...

Evaluation of different transmission routes of Cystoisospora suis in a farm using prophylactic toltrazuril

Semina: Ciências Agrárias, 2022
Coccidiosis is an enteric disease caused by protozoa, especially Cystoisospora suis which can lead to large losses in production. Its transmission occurs through different routes, mainly affecting piglets in the first weeks of life and normally ...

Coccidia Species and Geographical Distribution in Genus Sus: A Scoping Review [PDF]

Microorganisms
Swine coccidiosis is a widespread disease caused by species of the apicomplexan parasites Eimeria and Cystoisospora. Coccidiosis is a common cause of diarrhea in suckling piglets worldwide that directly reduces piglets’ immunity and increases the risk of

Simultaneous Use of Iron/Anticoccidial Treatment and Vaccination against Oedema Disease: Impact on the Development of Serum-Neutralising Antibodies, Hematinic and Anticoccidial Activities in Piglets [PDF]

Vaccines
Oedema disease (OD) in weaned piglets is caused by shigatoxigenic Escherichia coli (STEC), which produces the Stx2e toxin. The disease is controlled by early vaccination (for example, with Ecoporc Shiga®).

Testing the ‘parasite-mediated domestication’ hypothesis: a comparative approach to the wild boar and domestic pig as model species [PDF]

PeerJ
The mechanisms underlying the domestication process have already been well explained. Starting with Belyaev’s pioneering experiment on silver foxes, which showed that selection for tameness (reduced fear response, changes in the ‘hypothalamic-pituitary ...

Progression of asexual to sexual stages of Cystoisospora suis in a host cell-free environment as a model for Coccidia. [PDF]

Parasitology, 2021
AbstractCoccidia display a characteristic life cycle, where the parasites switch between asexual and sexual development, resulting in an environmental stage, the oocyst. The entero-pathogenic Cystoisospora suis, a coccidian parasite of swine and close relative to Toxoplasma gondii, undergoes development in one host-cycle.

First report of molecular identification of Cystoisospora suis in piglets with lethal diarrhea in Japan. [PDF]

Acta Parasitol, 2016
Abstractis a pathogen that causes diarrhea in pigs and can lead to serious disease. Species identification, especially by histopathological examination, is often difficult because of morphologically similar parasites such ...

Cloning, expression and molecular characterization of a Cystoisospora suis specific uncharacterized merozoite protein. [PDF]

Parasit Vectors, 2017
The genome of the apicomplexan parasite Cystoisospora suis (syn. Isospora suis) has recently been sequenced and annotated, opening the possibility for the identification of novel therapeutic targets against cystoisosporosis. It was previously proposed that a 42 kDa uncharacterized merozoite protein, encoded by gene CSUI_005805, might be a relevant ...
