Molecular survey of hepatozoonosis in natural infected dogs: first detection and molecular characterisation of hepatozoon canis in kyrgyzstan [PDF]

Kafkas Universitesi Veteriner Fakültesi Dergisi, 2018
Canine hepatozoonosis is a tick-borne protozoan disease and widespread in Europe, Africa, Asia and America. There is not any available data about the presence of Hepatozoon infections in dogs in Kyrgyzstan.

Geographical isolation and hyperendemicity of Hepatozoon felis: Epidemiological scenario in Skopelos, Greece, and phylogenetic analysis [PDF]

Current Research in Parasitology and Vector-Borne Diseases
Feline hepatozoonosis is a vector-borne disease caused by different species of the genus Hepatozoon, i.e. Hepatozoon felis, Hepatozoon silvestris and Hepatozoon canis. Knowledge on the biology, epidemiology and taxonomy of Hepatozoon spp.

Cytauxzoon sp. and Hepatozoon spp. in Domestic Cats: A Preliminary Study in North-Eastern Italy [PDF]

Pathogens, 2021
Knowledge on the presence of Cytauxzoon sp. and Hepatozoon spp. in Italy is scant and mostly limited to a few areas of Northern and Southern regions, respectively.

Genetic diversity of Hepatozoon spp. in rodents from Chile

Revista Brasileira de Parasitologia Veterinária, 2021
This study aimed to investigate the genetic diversity of Hepatozoon spp. in rodents from Valdivia, Chile. A total of 74 rodents (synanthropic n=38; wild n=36) were trapped in Valdivia.

Hepatozoon species (Adeleorina: Hepatozoidae) of African bufonids, with morphological description and molecular diagnosis of Hepatozoon ixoxo sp. nov. parasitising three Amietophrynus species (Anura: Bufonidae) [PDF]

Parasites & Vectors, 2014
Background Haemogregarines comprise a large group of apicomplexan blood parasites. In 1996 all anuran haemogregarines still in the genus Haemogregarina Danilewsky, 1885 were reassigned to the genus Hepatozoon Miller, 1908.

Nanopore-based 18S rRNA metabarcoding reveals Hepatozoon lineages from ectoparasites

Parasitology
Inverse surveillance seeks to identify potential pathogens before diseases emerge in populations. In this study, we conducted a molecular survey of eukaryotic vector-borne pathogens (VBPs) within ectoparasite species to anticipate disease outbreaks in ...

Molecular Genetics of <i>Hepatozoon canis</i> With a Note on Effect of Parasite on the Complete Blood Count Profile of Canine Hosts. [PDF]

Ecol Evol
A total of 654 blood samples were collected from healthy dogs in Punjab and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa provinces in Pakistan and screened for the presence of Hepatozoon canis. Genetic diversity of the detected H. canis DNA, infection‐associated risk factors, and changes in the complete blood count of the host due to parasitic activity were also evaluated.

Challenging the Clinical Paradigm of Hepatozoon canis: A Primary Pathogen Causing Clinically Significant Disease at Low Parasitaemia and a Chronic Inflammatory State. [PDF]

Vet Med Sci
Hepatozoon canis causes significant clinical disease even at low parasitaemia and induces chronic subclinical anaemia and inflammation in dogs. Lack of tick control is the main modifiable risk factor. Molecular diagnosis is far more sensitive than microscopy, challenging the traditional view that disease severity depends solely on parasite burden ...

Mitochondrial Genomes of Klossia Species: The First Complete Extrachromosomal Sequence Data From Parasites in the Monoxenous Apicomplexan Family Adeleidae Mesnil, 1903 (Apicomplexa: Adeleorina). [PDF]

J Eukaryot Microbiol
ABSTRACT Complete mitochondrial genomes were sequenced and annotated from three Klossia species (Apicomplexa; Adeleorina) infecting snails in North America and Europe. Mitochondrial genomes of K. helicina (type species—NC_058857.1; 6728 bp), K. razorbacki (NC_058856.1; 6775 bp), and K.

Molecular confirmation of high prevalence of species of Hepatozoon infection in free-ranging African wild dogs (Lycaon pictus) in the Kruger National Park, South Africa

International Journal for Parasitology: Parasites and Wildlife, 2021
Reports in the literature indicate that species of Hepatozoon commonly occur in African wild dog (AWD) or painted wolf (Lycaon pictus) populations. These findings were based on examination of blood smears by microscopy, and specific identity of the ...
