Detection of Multiple Microorganisms in Ruminant Ticks in Senegal Using High‐Throughput Microfluidic Real‐Time PCR

Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Ticks are major vectors of numerous pathogens affecting both livestock and humans. In Senegal, data on the diversity of tick‐borne pathogens (TBPs) in ruminant‐associated ticks remain limited. In total, 1703 ticks were collected from goats, sheep, and cattle across three ecological zones of Senegal (Sudanian, Sahelian, and Sudano‐Sahelian).

TurboID mapping reveals the exportome of secreted intrinsically disordered proteins in the transforming parasite <i>Theileria annulata</i>. [PDF]

mBio
Theileria annulata is a tick-transmitted apicomplexan parasite that gained the unique ability among parasitic eukaryotes to transform its host cell, inducing a fatal cancer-like disease in cattle.

A One‐Pot RPA‐CRISPR/Cas12a Assay for Rapid Genus‐Level Detection of Babesia spp. in Ticks and Livestock Blood Samples

Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Babesiosis, a globally significant tick‐borne disease, poses substantial threats to livestock production and public health. Reported cases of human babesiosis in the United States increased from 1742 in 2014 to 3586 in 2023. In livestock, cattle babesiosis causes mortality, reduced meat and milk production, reproductive losses, and substantial control ...

A comparative phylogenetic analysis of Theileria spp. by using two "18S ribosomal RNA" and "Theileria annulata merozoite surface antigen" gene sequences

Archives of Razi Institute, 2013
More than 185 species, strains and unclassified Theileria parasites are categorized in the Entrez Taxonomy. The accurate diagnosis and proper identification of the causative agents are important for understanding the epidemiology, prevention and ...

Serum Sialic Acid as a Biomarker of Inflammation and Infection: Insights From Veterinary Medicine

Veterinary Medicine International, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Serum sialic acid (SSA) levels, including total sialic acid (TSA), lipid‐bound sialic acid (LBSA), and protein‐bound sialic acid (PBSA), have been extensively studied as biomarkers of inflammation and infection across various species and diseases. In parasitemic sheep, elevated SSA levels likely reflect host–pathogen interactions and immune activation.

Identification of a Novel Interaction between Theileria Prohibitin (TaPHB-1) and Bovine RuvB-Like AAA ATPase 1

Microbiology Spectrum, 2023
Theileriosis is a tick-borne disease caused by Theileria annulata, an intracellular parasite that belongs to the phylum Apicomplexa. The infective forms of the parasite to cattle are sporozoites that are introduced into the host when the infected ticks ...

Highly divergent apicomplexan cytoskeletons provide additional models for actin biology

The FEBS Journal, Volume 292, Issue 24, Page 6459-6480, December 2025.
Actin is a highly conserved, abundant and central molecule in eukaryotes. Apicomplexans contain some of the most sequence‐divergent actin cytoskeletons known. This divergence results in overlapping yet different biochemical properties. Here, we highlight the remarkable divergence of the actin cytoskeleton by comparing apicomplexan to classical systems,

Prevalence, Species Diversity, and Risk Factors of Tick Infestation in Cattle From District Peshawar, Pakistan

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 11, Issue 6, November 2025.
This study documents the prevalence and risk factors of cattle tick infestation in District Peshawar using morphological and molecular identification. Ecological diversity indices reveal moderate tick diversity, while risk factor analysis highlights breed, age, and sex as significant predictors of infestation.

Genetic Diversity and Population Structure of Theileria annulata in Oman [PDF]

PLOS ONE, 2015
Theileriosis, caused by a number of species within the genus Theileria, is a common disease of livestock in Oman. It is a major constraint to the development of the livestock industry due to a high rate of morbidity and mortality in both cattle and sheep.
