Abstract Sterile Insect Technique (SIT) has proven effective to reduce tsetse population density in large infected areas where animal African trypanosomosis (AAT) and human African trypanosomiasis (HAT) elimination was difficult to achieve. However, the decrease in mass production of insectary‐reared tsetse and the limited but incomplete knowledge on ...

This paper reviews the transmission modes of Trypanosoma evansi. Its worldwide distribution is attributed to mechanical transmission. While the role of tabanids is clear, we raise questions on the relative role of Haematobia sp. and the possible role of Stomoxys sp. in delayed transmission.

Investigation of Novel Isatinylhydantoin Derivatives as Potential Anti‐Kinetoplastid Agents
A series of isatinylhydantoin derivatives were synthesized and investigated for antileishmanial and antitrypanosomal activities in vitro and in vivo. The derivative 5 was identified with higher leishmanicidal activity than the clinical drug amphotericin B while 4b was uncovered as in vitro trypanocidal hit against T. congolense parasite.

Immunological and Therapeutic Strategies against Salmonid Cryptobiosis
Salmonid cryptobiosis is caused by the haemoflagellate, Cryptobia salmositica. Clinical signs of the disease in salmon (Oncorhynchus spp.) include exophthalmia, general oedema, abdominal distension with ascites, anaemia, and anorexia. The disease‐causing factor is a metalloprotease and the monoclonal antibody (mAb‐001) against it is therapeutic.

Immunobiology of African Trypanosomes: Need of Alternative Interventions
Trypanosomiasis is one of the major parasitic diseases for which control is still far from reality. The vaccination approaches by using dominant surface proteins have not been successful, mainly due to antigenic variation of the parasite surface coat.

The incidence of trypanosomosis in sentinel cattle on Unguja Island, Zanzibar, was monitored every two to five months in 1994-97 to observe changes in disease transmission attributable logically to the application of insecticides, the release of ...

Kinetic modelling of isometamidium chloride (Samorin) uptake byTrypanosoma congolense
Clones ofTrypanosoma congolensewhich express resistance to the widely used trypanocide isometamidium chloride accumulate less of the drug than clones which are sensitive to drug treatment. A mathematical model has been developed which was able to predict theoretical lines representing the uptake kinetics in trypanosomes which were sensitive to ...

Several (sub)species of Trypanosoma are responsible for human African trypanosomiasis (HAT), Chagas disease, and Nagana. These (sub)species have different drug susceptibility profiles. This work reports several easily accessed quinolone hydrazides exhibiting sub‐micromolar activities against multiple (sub)species of Trypanosoma.

Isometamidium chloride and homidium chloride fail to cure mice infected with Ethiopian Trypanosoma evansi type A and B. [PDF]
BACKGROUND:Trypanosoma evansi is mechanically transmitted by biting flies and affects camels, equines, and other domestic and wild animals in which it causes a disease called surra.
