Neospora caninum and neosporosis
Neospora caninum is a protozoan cyst forming apicomplexan parasite that causes neosporosis, notably in cattle (Bos taurus) and domestic dogs (Canis familiaris) [1,2]. It is closely related to Toxoplasma gondii and has emerged as a major cause of reproductive failure in cattle worldwide [2]. The parasite was first described in a dog with encephalomyelitis and myositis [1] and was later described...
متن کاملNeospora caninum and Wildlife
Bovine neosporosis caused by Neospora caninum is among the main causes of abortion in cattle nowadays. At present there is no effective treatment or vaccine. Serological evidence in domestic, wild, and zoo animals indicates that many species have been exposed to this parasite. However, many aspects of the life cycle of N. caninum are unknown and the role of wildlife in the life cycle of N. cani...
متن کاملProtective efficacy of vaccination with Neospora caninum multiple recombinant antigens against experimental Neospora caninum infection.
Protective efficacy of vaccination with Neospora caninum multiple recombinant antigens against N. caninum infection was evaluated in vitro and in vivo. Two major immunodominant surface antigens (NcSAG1 and NcSRS2) and two dense granule proteins (NcDG1 and NcDG2) of N. caninum tachyzoites were expressed in E. coli, respectively. An in vitro neutralization assay using polyclonal antisera raised a...
متن کاملIntrauterine Neospora caninum inoculation of heifers.
Here, we studied the potential of Neospora caninum tachyzoites to infect heifers when administered in utero by artificial insemination via contaminated semen. Eighteen primiparous cyclic heifers were hormonally synchronized and artificially inseminated. Nine of them, which were inseminated with semen containing 10(7) live N. caninum NC-1 isolate-tachyzoites, reacted with seroconversion and a sp...
متن کاملNeospora caninum detected in feral rodents.
The role of rodents in the epidemiology of neosporosis was investigated by assaying brain tissue of feral mice (Mus musculus) and rats (Rattus norvegicus) for Neospora caninum. Both mouse and rat brain tissue were extracted for total DNA, and subjected to two different N. caninum-specific nested polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assays. A portion of brain tissue from the mice and rats were also a...
