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.

Occurrence and genotyping of Theileria equi in dogs and associated ticks in Egypt

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, 2022
Abstract Theileriosis is a tick‐borne protozoal disease caused by a piroplasm of the genus Theileria. Hard ticks are obligate hematophagous ectoparasites that serve as vectors of Theileria spp.

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

A serological study of Babesia caballi and Theileria equi in Thoroughbreds in Trinidad

Veterinary Parasitology, 2007
Ninety-three (93) horses were investigated for serum antibodies to Theileria equi (T. equi) and Babesia caballi (B. caballi) using the immunofluorescent antibody test (IFAT). Seventy-seven (82.8%) horses were seropositive; 31 (33.3%) were positive to T. equi compared to 64 (68.8%) to B.

Seroprevalence of Babesia caballi and Theileria equi in the Swiss horse population

Parasitology International, 2010
In Switzerland, the prevalence and incidence of equine piroplasma parasite (EPP) infections are unknown. In order to obtain a first insight into the prevalence, a representative sample of 689 sera of horses from Switzerland was serologically tested for the presence of antibodies directed against T. equi and B.

Alterations of cardiac and renal biomarkers in horses naturally infected with theileria equi

Comparative Immunology, Microbiology and Infectious Diseases, 2020
Equine theileriosis due to Theileria equi is probably the most widespread and pathogenic disease of equines, which comes with major cardiac and renal complications. This study was undertaken to investigate the biomarkers of cardiac and renal functions in horses infected with T.

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 ...

Development of loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) for detection of Theileria equi

Acta Tropica, 2013
Several approaches have been developed for diagnosis of Theileria equi infection in horses and donkeys but all of them have limitations in practice. Due to numerous strengths including easy operation, cheapness and high sensitivity and specificity, LAMP has been already extensively used for surveillance of a number of diseases.

Diagnosis and prevalence of Theileria equi horses in western Mexico by nested PCR

Parasitology International, 2017
Theileria equi infection prevalence was calculated from 1000 blood samples obtained from apparently healthy horses in western Mexico. Samples were sent to the Animal Biotechnology Laboratory of the University of Guadalajara (Mexico) for T. equi diagnosis.

Seroprevalance of Theileria equi and Babesia caballi in Horses of Mus Provice, Turkey

Alexandria Journal of Veterinary Sciences, 2019
Equine piroplasmosis (EP) is a tick-borne protozoal disease of horses, mules, donkeys, and zebras that is characterized by fever, anemia, icterus, and hepatosplenomegaly. This study was carried out to determine the seroprevalence of Theileria equi and Babesia caballi in horses in Mus province by cELISA.
