Proteomics of Trypanosoma evansi Infection in Rodents
BACKGROUND Trypanosoma evansi infections, commonly called 'surra', cause significant economic losses to livestock industry. While this infection is mainly restricted to large animals such as camels, donkeys and equines, recent reports indicate their ability to infect humans. There are no World Animal Health Organization (WAHO) prescribed diagnostic tests or vaccines available against this disea...
متن کاملImmunohistochemical characterization of mononuclear cells and MHC II expression in the brain of horses with experimental chronic Trypanosoma evansi infection.
An histochemical and immunohistochemical study was carried out to evaluate the mechanisms of immune response of horses experimentally infected by Trypanosoma evansi. For this purpose the HE histochemical stain and the avidin biotin peroxidase method were used. To determine the presence and immunoreactivity of immune cells we used anti-major histocompatibility complex II antibodies. Cellular inf...
متن کاملTrypanosoma Evansi Infections
Definition of the disease: Trypanosoma evansi causes a disease known as Trypanosomosis1 (‘surra’). It affects a number of species of domesticated animals in Asia, Africa and Central and South America. The principal host species affected varies geographically, but buffalo, cattle, camels and horses are particularly affected, although other animals, including wildlife, are also susceptible. It is...

متن کاملAstrocytic and microglial response and histopathological changes in the brain of horses with experimental chronic Trypanosoma evansi infection.
This study aimed to characterize astrocytic and microglial response in the central nervous system (CNS) of equines experimentally infected with T. evansi. The experimental group comprised males and females with various degrees of crossbreeding, ages between four and seven years. The animals were inoculated intravenously with 10(6) trypomastigotes of T. evansi originally isolated from a naturall...
