Investigation of carbohydrate-based molecules of Theileria parva parasites

Frontiers in Veterinary Science
Theileria parva (Tp), the causative agent of East Coast Fever, poses a major threat to Bos taurus cattle in sub-Saharan Africa. Progress towards a stable, affordable, cross-protective subunit vaccine covering more than one major histocompatibility ...

A climate-based model for the development of the ixodid tick, Rhipicephalus-appendiculatus in East coast fever zones

, 1988
East Coast fever (Theileria parva infection) is an important parasitic disease of cattle in East and Central Africa. Past experimental studies have provided a great deal of information on the dynamics of the life cycle of the tick vector, Rhipicephalus ...

Pathogenicity of Theileria parva is influenced by the host cell type infected by the parasite

, 1996
Theileria parva has been shown to infect and transform B cells and T cells at similar frequencies in vitro. However, the majority of parasitized cells in the tissues of infected cattle are alpha/beta T cells.

Live immunization against East Coast fever - current status

, 2009
The infection-and-treatment method (ITM) for immunization of cattle against East Coast fever has historically been used only on a limited scale because of logistical and policy constraints. Recent large-scale deployment among pastoralists in Tanzania has

Insights into Theileria transmission-blocking vaccines for East Coast fever control: A disease with an “outdated vaccination approach”

Ticks and Tick-Borne Diseases
Instead of using the Infection and Treatment Method (ITM)-based vaccine, is it possible to control East Coast Fever (ECF) through blocking Theileria parva transmission in ticks and cattle? This review pursues this question.
