Electron microscopic study on the development of Babesia ovis (Piroplasmia) in the salivary glands of the vector tick Rhipicephalus bursa.
The formation of Babesia ovis sporozoites in salivary gland cells of the vector tick Rhipicephalus bursa was studied by electron microscopy. The kinetics of B. ovis were found lying intracellularly on the second day after infestation (a.i.) of the ticks. The parasites enlarged rapidly losing all features of the motile form. Invaginations of the cell membrane initiated a fragmentation of this de...
متن کاملA Treatment with a Protease Inhibitor Recombinant from the Cattle Tick (Rhipicephalus Boophilus microplus) Ameliorates Emphysema in Mice
AIMS To determine whether a serine protease inhibitor treatment can prevent or minimize emphysema in mice. METHODS C57BL/6 mice were subjected to porcine pancreatic elastase (PPE) nasal instillation to induce emphysema and were treated with a serine protease inhibitor (rBmTI-A) before (Protocol 1) and after (Protocol 2) emphysema development. In both protocols, we evaluated lung function to e...
متن کاملشناسایی گونه های مختلف ری پی سفالوس در برخی از مناطق ایران
This study was conducted during 3 years period (2002-2004). Tick sampling was carried out randomly from domestic animals during seasonal activity of ticks from different parts of Iran. 2170 ticks from 151 cattle, 629 sheep, 336 goats and 33 camels were collected. The occurance of tick infestation in cattle, sheep, goats and camels was 60%, 71.4%, 53% and 46 % respectively. Sampled ticks of Rhip...
متن کاملPharmacological characterization of a tyramine receptor from the southern cattle tick, Rhipicephalus (Boophilus) microplus.
The southern cattle tick (Rhipicephalus (Boophilus) microplus) is a hematophagous external parasite that vectors the causative agents of bovine babesiosis or cattle tick fever, Babesia bovis and B. bigemina, and anaplasmosis, Anaplasma marginale. The southern cattle tick is a threat to the livestock industry in many locations throughout the world. Control methods include the use of chemical aca...
متن کاملVariation in body size in the tick complex Rhipicephalus appendiculatus/Rhipicephalus zambeziensis.
We examined the relationship between body size and the phenology of the tick complex Rhipicephalus appendiculatus/Rhipicephalus zambeziensis. These ticks transmit Theileria parva in cattle. In Africa, the body size of R. appendiculatus increases with latitude while the body size of the morphologically similar Rhipicephalus zambeziensis is constant at two different latitudes. A larger body size ...
