The haematological, proinflammatory cytokines and IgG changes during an ovine experimental theileriosis

The relationships among acute phase response proteins, cytokines, and enzymes during ovine experimental endotoxemia

BACKGROUND: The acute phase response is beneficial to theanimal in restoring homeostasis, and measuring the circulatingacute phase proteins, cytokines, and enzymes can be used toevaluate the innate immune system's responses to invader agentssuch as bacterial lipopolysaccharide. Measurement of theseparameters has shown to be useful as diagnostic and prognosticmarkers in animal endotoxemia. OBJEC...

Haematological and Coagulation Profiles during Severe Tropical Theileriosis in Cattle

This study was conducted to measure selected haematological parameters in Holstein cattle naturally infected with Theileria annulata. Haematological analysis indicated significant decreases in red blood cell count, haematocrit value, haemoglobin amount, mean corpuscular haemoglobin concentration, and white blood cell, lymphocyte, neutrophil, monocyte, eosinophil, and basophil counts. On the oth...

Chemotherapy in Ovine Malignant Theileriosis

Malignant Ovine Theileriosis (Theileria lestoquardi): A Review

Malignant Ovine Theileriosis (MOT) is a tick borne disease of sheep and goats, caused by Theileria lestoquardi and is considered a major constraint for sheep production in many areas of the world. It has been reported to infect lymphocytes in vivo and in vitro and the schizonts differentiate into macro-schizonts and micro-schizonts. To date, little is known about the mechanisms involved in the ...
