Coccidia Species and Geographical Distribution in Genus Sus: A Scoping Review [PDF]
MicroorganismsSwine 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]
VaccinesOedema 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]
PeerJThe 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.

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 ...
