Development of an Indirect ELISA to Detect Equine Antibodies to Theileria haneyi

Pathogens, 2021
The apicomplexan parasite Theileria haneyi is one of two known causative agents of equine theileriosis. It causes milder clinical disease than its more virulent counterpart, Theileria equi, in experimentally infected horses, and can superinfect T.

Genetic Characterization of Piroplasms in Donkeys and Horses from Nigeria

Animals, 2020
Equine piroplasmosis (EP) is a tick-borne disease of equids, caused by the two haemoprotozoal parasites: Theileria equi and Babesia caballi. Nigeria constitutes a major crossroads of animal transport in West Africa and may serve as a factor in EP ...

Seroprevalence of Theileria equi and Babesia caballi in horses in Spain. [PDF]

Parasite, 2017
Equine piroplasmoses are enzootic parasitic diseases distributed worldwide with high incidence in tropical and subtropical regions. In Spain, there is insufficient epidemiological data about equine piroplasmoses. The main aim of the present study was therefore to estimate the prevalence of Theileria equi and Babesia caballi in five regions and obtain ...

PCR detection of Theileria equi and Babesia caballi in apparently healthy horses in Paraguay.

Veterinary Parasitology: Regional Studies and Reports, 2023
Equine piroplasmosis (EP) is a tick-borne disease caused by Theileria equi and Babesia caballi in equids, including horses. EP has a global distribution and often leads to a significant socioeconomic impact on the equine industry. Infected animals remain

In vitro growth inhibition of Theileria equi by bumped kinase inhibitors. [PDF]

Vet Parasitol, 2018
Theileria equi, an etiologic agent of equine piroplasmosis, is a tick-transmitted hemoprotozoan of the phylum Apicomplexa. Recent outbreaks of piroplasmosis in the United States have renewed interest in safe and effective treatment options. Although imidocarb dipropionate (IMD) is the drug of choice for clearance of T.
