Precursor‐targeted immune‐mediated anaemia in a dog with concurrent haemoparasite seroreactivity: Diagnostic challenges and therapeutic response

Veterinary Record Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 4, November 2026.
Summary Precursor‐targeted immune‐mediated anaemia (PIMA) is an increasingly recognised cause of nonregenerative anaemia in dogs and may be difficult to distinguish from infectious or other immune‐mediated conditions. This report describes a dog presenting severe nonregenerative anaemia, leukopenia and thrombocytopenia, initially testing seroreactive ...

Molecular Detection, Epidemiology and Genetic Diversity of Babesia microti Infecting Wild Rodents

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 5, September 2026.
Blood samples from 284 rodents captured across seven districts of Pakistan were screened for Babesia microti using 18S rRNA PCR. Overall prevalence was 12%, with infection detected in Rattus rattus, Mus musculus and Rattus norvegicus. Phylogenetic analysis showed close similarity with global isolates.

Molecular epidemiological study on ticks and tick-borne protozoan parasites (Apicomplexa: Cytauxzoon and Hepatozoon spp.) from wild cats (Felis silvestris), Mustelidae and red squirrels (Sciurus vulgaris) in central Europe, Hungary

Parasites & Vectors, 2022
Background Among live wild mammals adapted to urban and peri-urban habitats in Europe, members of the families Felidae, Mustelidae and Sciuridae deserve special attention as pathogen reservoirs because all of these families include members that are kept ...

Severe Tick Infestation and Haemogregarina spp. Infection in a Captive African Rock Python (Python sebae): A Clinical and Parasitological Case from Nigeria

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 4, July 2026.
Heavy Amblyomma latum infestation transmitted haemoparasites to a captive African rock python, causing anorexia, facial swelling and dysecdysis. Manual tick removal, povidone‐iodine cleansing and a single oral dose of ivermectin cleared both ecto‐ and haemoparasites.

Ocorrência de Hepatozoon spp. (Apicomplexa, Hepatozoidae) em serpentes do gênero Bothrops de cativeiro Occurrence of Hepatozoon spp. (Apicomplexa, Hepatozoidae) in snakes of genus Bothrops in captivity

Arquivo Brasileiro de Medicina Veterinária e Zootecnia, 2008
The occurrence of Hepatozoon gamont in the blood cells of Bothrops jararaca and B. jararacussu in captivity was analyzed. The prevalence of infection by Hepatozoon spp. was 50% and few erythrocytes contained the gamonts.

First detection and molecular identification of Babesia gibsoni and Hepatozoon canis in an Asiatic wild dog (Cuon alpinus) from Thailand

International Journal for Parasitology: Parasites and Wildlife, 2022
Babesia spp. and Hepatozoon spp. are apicomplexan parasites that infect a wide range of domestic and wild animals. The life cycle of these parasites requires a tick vector as a definitive host and various vertebrates as reservoir hosts.
