Prevalence, hematology and serum biochemistry in stray dogs naturally infected by Hepatozoon canis in São Paulo
The clinical signs observed in H. canis-infected dogs in Brazil were anorexia, pale mucous membranes, weight loss, diarrhoea, gait abnormalities, fever, polyuria and polydipsia. The laboratory findings were anemia, leucocytosis with neutrophilia, lymphopenia, monocytosis, and elevated alkaline phosphatase (Gondim et al., 1998; Paludo et al., 2003; Aguiar et al., 2004). All the animals in these ...
متن کاملDescription of dogs naturally infected with Hepatozoon canis in the Aegean region of Turkey
Clinical and laboratory findings recorded in 10 dogs naturally infected with Hepatozoon canis in the Aegean region of Turkey were reported. The diagnosis was made by finding H. canis gamonts within leucocytes in Giemsastained blood smears. H. canis parasitaemia level was calculated manually by counting 500 neutrophils in blood smears. Parasitaemia varied from 1% to 23% of the circulating neutro...
متن کاملIdentification of serum biomarkers in dogs naturally infected with Babesia canis canis using a proteomic approach
BACKGROUND Canine babesiosis is a tick-borne disease that is caused by the haemoprotozoan parasites of the genus Babesia. There are limited data on serum proteomics in dogs, and none of the effect of babesiosis on the serum proteome. The aim of this study was to identify the potential serum biomarkers of babesiosis using proteomic techniques in order to increase our understanding about disease ...
متن کاملSerum concentrations of eicosanoids and lipids in dogs naturally infected with Babesia canis.
Canine babesiosis is a tick-borne disease with world-wide significance caused by intraerythrocytic protozoa of the genus Babesia. The eicosanoids, as inflammatory mediators, are involved in the regulation of the immune response and inflammatory reaction. Metabolism of lipids is of great importance in babesiosis. In this study it was aimed to investigate the dynamics of serum concentration of pr...
متن کاملDetection of Hepatozoon spp in Naturally Infected Brazilian Dogs by Polymerase Chain Reaction
Hepatozoon canis was molecularly identified in Rio de Janeiro State, Brazil. Twelve dogs from urban areas were studied by blood smear examination and the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assay. From these dogs, only 1 was positive in both blood smears and PCR.
