Intestinal Protozoan Infections in Cats
Journal of the American Veterinary Medical Association, 1970SUMMARY A survey for intestinal protozoa in 757 stray cats from central New Jersey revealed that 36.0% had 1 to 3 species of Isospora (I. bigemina, I. felis, I. rivolta) and 2.5% had Giardia cati. These findings were compared with those in stray dogs from the same area.

Interactions in protozoan infections
International Journal for Parasitology, 1987Abstract Protozoan infections interact with a number of other infectious agents in such a way as to suggest that these interactions should be considered as important factors in animal health and productivity. In particular, trypanosomiasis is accompanied by immunodepression which extends to superimposed infections, which are enhanced, and vaccination

Protozoans cause a number of important infectious diseases. This chapter discusses malaria, babesiosis, toxoplasmosis, trichomoniasis, leishmaniasis, and trypanosomiasis; in addition, the chapter describes the intestinal protozoan infections caused by Giardia lamblia; Dientamoeba fragilis; Entamoeba histolytica; Blastocystis hominis; the coccidial ...

Abstract The bone marrow may be involved in several protozoan infections of man, including toxoplasmosis, visceral leishmaniasis, and malaria. Pneumocystis carinii, an organism of uncertain classification, has historically been classified with the protozoa and will also be considered in this group.

Physiological Aspects of Protozoan Infection
Annual Review of Microbiology, 1954The pathogenic agent in malaria is generally considered to be the erythro cytic (E) parasite. Apart from local damage resulting directly from invasion, tissue forms of parasite, at any rate in mamalian malaria, are probably non pathogenic. In this review the activity of the E form only is considered.

Targeting caspases in intracellular protozoan infections
Immunopharmacology and Immunotoxicology, 2009Caspases are cysteine aspartases acting either as initiators (caspases 8, 9, and 10) or executioners (caspases 3, 6, and 7) to induce programmed cell death by apoptosis. Parasite infections by certain intracellular protozoans increase host cell life span by targeting caspase activation.

Poultry has protozoa that are classified into multiple taxonomic groupings. In poultry, two types of parasites are significant: the coccidia and the mastiogophora (flagellates). Some parasites, which cause coccidiosis, have short, direct life cycles and are therefore preferred, while other parasites that involve intermediate hosts typically do not pose

Protozoan Infection in the Perinatal Period
The Journal of Perinatal & Neonatal Nursing, 1997Protozoan infections represent an area of concern for advanced practice nurses, particularly those working in rural areas or urban environments with refugee populations and those caring for patients with immunodeficiency-related diseases. Some of these infections have major effects on the fetus and neonate yet pose minimal problems to the mother ...

Zeitschrift fur Geburtshilfe und Neonatologie, 1999
Intestinal protozoan disease diagnosed in pregnancy is mostly controlled by symptomatic treatment. Specific therapy can be delayed until after delivery. Only severe cases, i.e. continued diarrhea leading to malnutrition of either mother or fetus, require an immediate specific drug therapy, which might be harmful to the fetus due to toxic and ...

Alternatively activated macrophages in protozoan infections
Current Opinion in Immunology, 2007A type 1 cytokine-dependent pro-inflammatory response inducing classically activated macrophages is crucial for parasite control during protozoan infections but can also contribute to the development of immunopathological disease symptoms. Accumulating evidence indicates that interleukins 4, 13 and 10, transforming growth factor-beta, immune complexes ...
