Variable Surface Glycoprotein RoTat 1.2 PCR as a specific diagnostic tool for the detection of Trypanosoma evansi infections

BACKGROUND: Based on the recently sequenced gene coding for the Trypanosoma evansi (T. evansi) RoTat 1.2 Variable Surface Glycoprotein (VSG), a primer pair was designed targeting the DNA region lacking homology to other known VSG genes. A total of 39 different trypanosome stocks were tested using the RoTat 1.2 based Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR). RESULTS: This PCR yielded a 205 bp product in ...

Trypanosoma Evansi Infections

Definition of the disease: Trypanosoma evansi causes a disease known as Trypanosomosis1 5 (‘surra’). It affects a number of domesticated animals species in Asia, Africa and Central and South 6 America. The principal host species affected varies geographically, but buffalo, cattle, camels and 7 horses are particularly affected, although other animals, including wildlife, are also susceptible. It...

In vivo investigations of selected diamidine compounds against Trypanosoma evansi using a mouse model.

Surra is an animal pathogenic protozoan infection, caused by Trypanosoma evansi, that develops into a fatal wasting disease. Control measures rely on diagnosis and treatment. However, with the continuous emergence of drug resistance, this tactic is failing, and the pressing need for new chemotherapeutic agents is becoming critical. With the introduction of novel aromatic diamidines, a new categ...
