In vitro activity of ponazuril against Theileria equi

Veterinary Parasitology, 2012
The equid hemoprotozoan parasite Theileria equi is endemic in most regions worldwide. Infection of horses is a cause of significant economic loss due to costs associated with disease and restriction of trade with non-endemic nations. The ability of certain drugs such as imidocarb dipropionate to eliminate persistent T.

Theileria equi and Babesia caballi in horses in the Czech Republic

Acta Tropica, 2021
Theileria equi and Babesia caballi are protozoan agents causing equine piroplasmosis, endemic in countries all over the world. The aim of this study was to detect antibodies to T. equi and B. caballi in horses in the Czech Republic and to investigate the origin of the infection.

Redescription of Babesia equi Laveran, 1901 as Theileria equi Mehlhorn, Schein 1998

Parasitology Research, 1998
The horse-parasitizing species Babesia equi Laveran, 1901 was redescribed as Theileria equi Mehlhorn, Schein 1998 and, thus, transferred from one valid genus to another. This transfer was needed since it turned out that this horse parasite showed the relevant characteristics of theilerians with regard to biological data, morphological features ...

Protein Kinase Inhibitors Arrested the In-Vitro Growth of Theileria equi

Acta Parasitologica, 2020
Theileria equi is an intra-erythrocytic apicomplexean protozoa that infect equines. Protein kinases (PK), key molecules of the apicomplexean life cycle, have been implicated as significant drug targets. The growth inhibitory efficacy of PK inhibitors against Theileria/Babesia animal parasites have not been documented so far.The present study aimed to ...

Repertoire of Theileria equi immunodominant antigens bound by equine antibody

Molecular and Biochemical Parasitology, 2013
Theileriosis in horses and cattle is caused by tick-borne Apicomplexa parasites and results in death or life-long infection in their respective hosts. Transmission risk associated with persistent infection severely limits movement of horses and cattle resulting in economic losses. The recent reemergence of Theileria equi infection in U.S.

Infection dynamics of Theileria equi and Theileria haneyi, a newly discovered apicomplexan of the horse

Veterinary Parasitology, 2019
Theileria equi infection, exotic to the United States has reemerged through intravenous (iatrogenic) and tick-borne transmission. Surveillance at the US-Mexico border identified a new species, Theileria haneyi, (T. haneyiEP) (EP = Eagle Pass, Texas) which warranted additional investigation due to inability to detect by PCR targeting of T.

Theileria equi infection causing abortion in a mare in Brazil

Veterinary Parasitology: Regional Studies and Reports, 2017
The aim of this report was to confirm the cause of abortion to be Theileria equi acquired transplacentally in a mare in Federal District, Brazil. The aborted fetus showed a high parasitemia of erythrocytes (80%) by the oval and Maltese cross forms of T. equi.

Acute phase proteins in Andalusian horses infected with Theileria equi

The Veterinary Journal, 2014
Clinical and laboratory findings were determined in 23 Andalusian horses in southern Spain that were positive for Theileria equi by PCR, including 16 mares at pasture (group A1) and seven stabled stallions (group B1). Five healthy mares at pasture (group A2) and five stabled stallions (group B2), all of which were negative for T. equi in Giemsa stained

First Molecular Characterization of Theileria equi from Northeastern Algeria

Acta Parasitologica
Equine piroplasmosis (EP) is a tick-borne disease that affects equids and is caused by the parasites Theileria equi, Theileria haneyi and Babesia caballi. This disease leads to significant economic losses for the global equine industry. The current study aimed to evaluate the prevalence of Piroplasmida infections in equines from El Tarf, located in ...

Transplacental transmission of Theileria equi in mules: Should we worry?

Veterinary Parasitology, 2018
Equine piroplasmosis, disease globally responsible for significant economic losses, is caused by the transmission of the hemoprotozoa Theileria equi and Babesia caballi by ticks. Transplacental transmission has been reported previously in horses, which is not the case for mules´ foals.
