African Trypanosomes undermine humoral responses and vaccine development : link with inflammatory responses? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
African trypanosomosis is a debilitating disease of great medical and socioeconomical importance. It is caused by strictly extracellular protozoan parasites capable of infecting all vertebrate classes including human, livestock, and game animals.

Hepatocyte-derived IL-10 plays a crucial role in attenuating pathogenicity during the chronic phase of T. congolense infection [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Bovine African Trypanosomosis is an infectious parasitic disease affecting livestock productivity and thereby impairing the economic development of Sub-Saharan Africa. The most important trypanosome species implicated is T.

Note sur un essai de traitement trypanocide pour lutter contre la primo-infection chez les veaux Baoulé

open access: yesRevue d’Elevage et de Médecine Vétérinaire des Pays Tropicaux, 1980
Dans une région bien délimitée du Nord de la Côte-d'Ivoire où la trypanosomose provoque une importante mortalité chez les très jeunes veaux taurins essentiellement de race Baoulé, pourtant réputée pour la qualité de sa trypanotolérance - une unique ...

Reconstructing the climatic niche breadth of land use for animal production during the African Holocene

open access: yesGlobal Ecology and Biogeography, Volume 29, Issue 1, Page 127-147, January 2020., 2020
Abstract Aim Domestic animals first appeared in the archaeological record in northern Africa c. 9000 years before present and subsequently spread southwards throughout the continent. This geographic expansion is well studied and can broadly be explained in terms of the movement of pastoralist populations due to climate change.

Trypanotolerance in East African Orma Boran cattle

open access: yesVeterinary Record, 1985
Comparative studies on two types of large East African zebu (Bos indicus) Boran cattle, on a beef ranch in Kenya, have indicated that a Boran type bred by the Orma tribe has a superior response to tsetse fly challenge. The Orma Boran when compared with an improved Boran was found to have lower trypanosome infection rates and, when untreated, better ...

Trypanotolerance in N’Dama x Boran crosses under natural trypanosome challenge: effect of test-year environment, gender, and breed composition

open access: yesBMC Genetics, 2012
Background Trypanosomosis, a protozoal disease affecting livestock, transmitted by Glossina (tsetse) flies is a major constraint to agricultural production in Sub-Saharan Africa. It is accepted that utilization of the native trypanotolerance exhibited in

Whole blood transcriptome profiles of trypanotolerant and trypanosusceptible cattle highlight a differential modulation of metabolism and immune response during infection by Trypanosoma congolense

open access: yesPeer Community Journal, 2023
Animal African trypanosomosis, caused by blood protozoan parasites transmitted mainly by tsetse flies, represents a major constraint for millions of cattle in sub-Saharan Africa.

Genetic Basis of Trypanotolerance in Cattle and Mice

open access: yesParasitology Today, 1998
Under most circumstances, certain breeds of domestic ruminants show a remarkable resistance to the effects of African trypanosomiasis: they can tolerate the presence of parasites while apparently controlling levels of parasitaemia and, crucially, not showing the severe anaemia and production loss that are characteristic of infection in susceptible ...

Caractéristiques spermatiques du taureau Baoulé (Bos taurus taurus ) au Burkina Faso

open access: yesRevue d’Elevage et de Médecine Vétérinaire des Pays Tropicaux, 1989
Cette étude a porté sur 9 taureaux Baoulé. Une forte incidence pathologique en saison humide perturbe l'ensemble des caractéristiques spermatiques. Ces caractéristiques, pour les animaux sains, sont les suivantes : volume = 2,4 plus ou moins 1,5 ml ...
