Vaccines against Theileria parva

Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 2000
Abstract: Bovine theileriosis caused by Theileria parva continues to be a major economic problem in many parts of Eastern, Southern, and Central Africa. Due to the unsustainable nature of the present control method‐using toxic acaricides to kill ticks‐alternative control methods are being sought.

Collateral benefits of restricted insecticide application for control of African trypanosomiasis on Theileria parva in cattle: a randomized controlled trial [PDF]

, 2014
Tick and tsetse-borne diseases (TTBDs) constrain livestock production in tropical and subtropical regions of the world. Of this community of endemic diseases, East coast fever (T.parva) is the most important tick-borne disease (TBD) accounting for 70% of

Induction of humoral immune response to multiple recombinant Rhipicephalus appendiculatus antigens and their effect on tick feeding success and pathogen transmission [PDF]

, 2016
BACKGROUND: Rhipicephalus appendiculatus is the primary vector of Theileria parva, the etiological agent of East Coast fever (ECF), a devastating disease of cattle in sub-Saharan Africa.

Highly syntenic and yet divergent: a tale of two Theilerias [PDF]

, 2009
The published genomic sequences of the two major host-transforming Theileria species of cattle represent a rich resource of information that has allowed novel bioinformatic and experimental studies into these important apicomplexan parasites. Since their

Theileria parva: Attempts at Cultivation

Parasitology, 1909
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 ...

Evolution and diversity of secretome genes in the apicomplexan parasite Theileria annulata [PDF]

, 2010
<b>BACKGROUND</b>: Little is known about how apicomplexan parasites have evolved to infect different host species and cell types. Theileria annulata and Theileria parva invade and transform bovine leukocytes but each species favours a ...
