A Review of Ecological Factors Associated with the Epidemiology of Wildlife Trypanosomiasis in the Luangwa and Zambezi Valley Ecosystems of Zambia

Interdisciplinary Perspectives on Infectious Diseases, Volume 2012, Issue 1, 2012., 2012
Trypanosomiasis has been endemic in wildlife in Zambia for more than a century. The disease has been associated with neurological disorders in humans. Current conservation strategies by the Zambian government of turning all game reserves into state‐protected National Parks (NPs) and game management areas (GMAs) have led to the expansion of the wildlife

Immunobiology of African Trypanosomes: Need of Alternative Interventions

BioMed Research International, Volume 2010, Issue 1, 2010., 2010
Trypanosomiasis is one of the major parasitic diseases for which control is still far from reality. The vaccination approaches by using dominant surface proteins have not been successful, mainly due to antigenic variation of the parasite surface coat.

Trypanotolerance in small ruminants of sub-Saharan Africa

Trends in Parasitology, 2009
Although a lot of information is currently available on trypanotolerance in cattle, until recently the trypanotolerant nature of small ruminants was not well known. Trypanotolerance in small ruminants is less pronounced than in cattle and should be considered as resilience rather than resistance.

A comparative study on the susceptibility of male and female albino mice to Trypanosoma brucei brucei [PDF]

Journal of Vector Borne Diseases, 2005
Background & objectives: Trypanosomiasis has remained a major set-back in the development oflivestock farming in tropical Africa. Thus the need for ascertaining the trypanotolerant levels ofdomestic animal breeds and possible improvement on them cannot ...

Infections with extracellular trypanosomes require control by efficient innate immune mechanisms and can result in the destruction of the mammalian humoral immune system [PDF]

, 2020
Salivarian trypanosomes are extracellular parasites that affect humans, livestock, and game animals around the world. Through co-evolution with the mammalian immune system, trypanosomes have developed defense mechanisms that allow them to thrive in blood,
