Theileria parva: Attempts at Cultivation
In an earlier paper (1908, pp. 255–257), we gave a full account of a paper by Miyajima (1907) wherein this author described experiments in which he states that he succeeded in cultivating Theileria (Piroplasma) parva. According to Miyajima, he had no difficulty in cultivating the parasite when he added the blood of cattle (containing Theileria) to ...

Expression analysis of the Theileria parva subtelomere-encoded variable secreted protein gene family. [PDF]
The intracellular protozoan parasite Theileria parva transforms bovine lymphocytes inducing uncontrolled proliferation. Proteins released from the parasite are assumed to contribute to phenotypic changes of the host cell and parasite persistence. With 85

TparvaDB: a database to support Theileria parva vaccine development [PDF]
We describe the development of TparvaDB, a comprehensive resource to facilitate research towards development of an East Coast fever vaccine, by providing an integrated user-friendly database of all genome and related data currently available for Theileria parva. TparvaDB is based on the Generic Model Organism Database (GMOD) platform.

The genome of Theileria parva: some structural properties
The DNA of the protozoan Theileria parva, the causal agent of the bovine East Coast Fever, has been prepared at least 99% pure from the intra‐erythrocytic form of the parasite. Its buoyant density was found to be 1.696 g/cm3 and its calculated G + C content was 36.7%. Fragmentation of T.

According to the analysis results, the prevalence of T. ovis was found to be 5.43% in sheep, 4.57% in goats and 5% in total. Theileria lestoquardi was not found in either sheep or goats. ABSTRACT Background Theileriosis is a haemoparasitic disease of domestic and wild ruminants, caused by Theileria species, transmitted by Ixodid tick species ...
