Trypanosoma evansi control and containment in Australasia

Trends in Parasitology, 2002
Animal trypanosomosis caused by Trypanosoma evansi is endemic throughout Southeast Asia, where it is an important constraint on the productivity of smallholder livestock. In the past decade, T. evansi has emerged as a serious threat to the viability of smallholder livestock industries in the Philippines and causes severe disease outbreaks with high ...

Kinetoplast DNA of Trypanosoma evansi

Molecular and Biochemical Parasitology, 1987
We show here that the kinetoplast DNA (kDNA) networks from six Trypanosoma evansi strains differ from those of T. brucei by their lack of maxi-circles and absence of mini-circle sequence heterogeneity. The lack of maxi-circles is sufficient to account for the inability of T.

Catabolism of Tryptophan by Trypanosoma evansi

Journal of Eukaryotic Microbiology, 1995
ABSTRACT. Trypanosoma brucei gambiense, which causes human African trypanosomiasis, catabolizes the aromatic amino acid tryptophan via an initial aminotransferase catalyzed reaction to form several indole end products, which have been suggested to contribute to the pathogenesis of trypanosomiasis. To determine if this same pathway exists in T. evansi,

Canine Trypanosoma evansi infection in Afghanistan

Veterinary Parasitology, 2013
In 2012, a dog in Afghanistan was diagnosed with trypanosomosis. We here describe the clinical picture of the animal and how the parasite was identified as Trypanosoma evansi by DNA extraction from a blood smear and molecular analysis with taxon-specific PCR assays.

Trypanosoma evansi infection in mainland Spain

Veterinary Parasitology, 2010
An outbreak of Trypanosoma evansi infection that occurred in mainland Spain is described. The outbreak occurred on an equine and camel farm to which dromedary camels from an infected area of the Canary Islands had recently been introduced. One of these camels developed clinical signs and T. evansi was discovered in a blood smear examination.

Trypanosoma evansi in Asia

Parasitology Today, 1988
Trypanosoma evansi has the widest geographical range of all the pathogenic trypanosome species and infects domesticated livestock in many countries of South America, Africa and Asia. In spite of this wide distribution, T. evansi has been less intensively investigated than the African tsetse-transmitted trypanosomes and there is correspondingly less ...

Drug resistance in Sudanese Trypanosoma evansi

Veterinary Parasitology, 1999
The drug sensitivities of 16 Trypanosoma evansi isolates from Sudan were examined using two different in vitro assays and rodent models. IC50 values (concentration which inhibited incorporation of 3H-hypoxanthine by 50%) obtained in a 40 h assay indicate that most of the isolates were resistant to suramin, a drug which has not been used in Sudan since ...

Trypanosoma evansi in capybara from Venezuela

Journal of Wildlife Diseases, 1997
During the slaughtering season of February and March 1991, 559 capybaras (Hydrochoerus hydrochaeris) were tested for Trypanosoma evansi in two areas in Venezuela: El Frio Ranch and El Cedral Ranch. Blood and serum samples were evaluated for T. evansi. Forty-eight (9%) of 559 capybaras had T. evansi using the microcentrifugation technique. Further, 279 (

Identification of the surface components of Trypanosoma evansi

Research in Veterinary Science, 1992
125I-labelling was used to characterise the surface components of five stocks of Trypanosoma evansi. Two components of 67 and 60.5 kD were labelled in two of the stocks, a single 60.5 kD component in two other stocks and no components in the remaining stock.

Pathogenic mechanisms of Trypanosoma evansi infections

Research in Veterinary Science, 2012
Insect-borne diseases exact a high public health burden and have a devastating impact on livestock and agriculture. To date, control has proved to be exceedingly difficult. One such disease that has plagued sub-Saharan Africa is caused by the protozoan African trypanosomes (Trypanosoma species) and transmitted by tsetse flies (Diptera: Glossinidae ...
