CRISPR/Cas system and its application in the diagnosis of animal infectious diseases

The FASEB Journal, Volume 38, Issue 24, 31 December 2024.
CRISPR‐based diagnostic platforms have transformed the molecular diagnostic field due to their outstanding ultra‐sensitive nucleic acid detecting capabilities. In this review, we highlighted the application of currently available CRISPR integrated setups on the diagnosis of animal infectious diseases.

Isolation of Theileria parva (SAO Hill) and Theileria parva (West Kilimanjaro) and their cross-immunity with Theileria parva (Kasoba).

Revue d'elevage et de medecine veterinaire des pays tropicaux, 1995
Two Theileria parva stocks were isolated from control cattle during East Cost fever (ECF) field immunization trials at SAO Hill and West Kilimanjaro in the southern and northern parts of Tanzania respectively. Both parasite stocks caused severe clinical ECF which required antitheilerial treatment for 3 of the 5 experimentally infected cattle.

Maintenance of Theileria parva parva infection in an endemic area of Kenya

Parasitology, 1986
SUMMARYThe maintenance of Theileria parva parva infection in an endemic area of Kenya on the shore of Lake Victoria was studied in the field and laboratory. High prevalences of antibodies against T. parva and T. mutans and intra-erythrocytic piroplasms were detected in local zebu (Bos indicus) cattle.

A Suite of Pathogens Detected in Ticks Sampled From Wildlife Hosts in Central Kenya

African Journal of Ecology, Volume 62, Issue 3, September 2024.
ABSTRACT Opportunistic sampling of ticks from animals during veterinary treatment offers important insights about wildlife exposure to pathogens. Here, we report pathogens and other tick‐borne organisms detected in ticks sampled from 10 animal species in and near Laikipia County, Kenya, in 2014–2016.

Red blood cell volume as a predictor of fatal reactions in cattle infected with Theileria parva Katete

Onderstepoort Journal of Veterinary Research, 2007
A comparison of mean corpuscular volume (MCV) and packed cell volume (PCV) was made between cattle undergoing lethal and non-lethal reactions following experimental infections with the apicomplexan protozoa, Theileria parva Katete. This work confirmed

Immune functions of C‐type lectins in medical arthropods

Insect Science, Volume 31, Issue 3, Page 652-662, June 2024.
C‐type lectins (CTLs) in mosquito vectors facilitate viral infection. Mosquito CTLs (mosGCTLs) bind to the viral envelope (E) proteins of the West Nile virus (WNV) (A), the Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV) (B), and the dengue virus (DENV) (c), thus enhancing viral entry into cells via membrane receptors such as mosPTP‐1. Abstract C‐type lectins (CTLs)

Exposure of vaccinated and naive cattle to natural challenge from buffalo-derived Theileria parva

International Journal for Parasitology: Parasites and Wildlife, 2015
Integrative management of wildlife and livestock requires a clear understanding of the diseases transmitted between the two populations. The tick-borne protozoan parasite Theileria parva causes two distinct diseases in cattle, East Coast fever and ...

Evaluation of haematological parameters in haemolytic anaemia caused by tick‐borne pathogens in grazing cattle

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 10, Issue 3, May 2024.
In grazing Korean indigenous cattle, haemolytic anaemia caused by Theileria orientalis and Anaplasma phagocytophilum has been observed. Reticulocytosis, a marker of regeneration, was quantitatively expressed with an increase in indirect bilirubin and a decrease in haptoglobin. In addition, indirect bilirubin, L‐lactate and reticulocytes were correlated

Insights into Theileria transmission-blocking vaccines for East Coast fever control: A disease with an “outdated vaccination approach”

Ticks and Tick-Borne Diseases
Instead of using the Infection and Treatment Method (ITM)-based vaccine, is it possible to control East Coast Fever (ECF) through blocking Theileria parva transmission in ticks and cattle? This review pursues this question.
