Theileria parva (T. parva) causes a highly serious bovine disease called East Coast fever (ECF), which is characterized by pyrexia, dyspnea and cachexia and is of great economic importance in African countries. We hypothesize that the clinical symptoms of ECF could be explained by a cytokine dysregulation.

DNA Repair in Pathogenic Eukaryotic Cells: Insights from Comparative Genomics of Parasitic Protozoan
Numerous external and internal DNA damaging agents can affect genetic material to produce single-strand breaks (SSB), double strand breaks (DSB), interand intra-strand cross-links in the form of cyclobutane pyrimidine dimers and (6-4)-photoproducts, oxidation and alkylation of bases, or formation of bulky chemical adducts.
