Identification of attenuation markers of a Theileria lestoquardi cell line to be used for the development of live vaccine against malignant ovine theileriosis Inaugural-Dissertation zur Erlangung der tiermedizinischen Doktorwürde

BACKGROUND In this study, the pilot production of aerobic bioreactor tropical theileriosis vaccine was optimized with the aim of immunological assays for further mass production. METHODS We have shown earlier the delayed type hypersensitivity (DTH) assay could be used for evaluating the immunity and memory cells against specific Theileria antigen in vaccinated animals. In addition, TNF-α is t...

An economic evaluation of various control programmes against Theileria annulata infection was conducted on a sample of 49 Tunisian dairy farms where clinical cases of tropical theileriosis had been recorded during the summer. Indicators of morbidity and the prevalence of infection, as well as production and demographic indicators (recorded in the present survey ortaken from secondary sources), ...

This study was performed to investigate the prevalence of theileriosis and to compare the prevalence of this disease in Korean native cattle reared under different environmental conditions, namely, in a grazing area and a non-grazing area by polymerase chain reaction. Three hundred and one Korean native cattle (276 cows and 25 bulls) that had not received prior treatment or been vaccinated to p...

tropical theileriosis is caused by infection of bovine myeloid mononuclear cells (monocytes and macrophages) and lymphoid cells (b lymphocytes) as well as red blood cells by the protozoan parasite theileria annulata. the disease is transmitted by ticks of the genus hyalomma. the clinical signs of theileriosis in stages appear from mild symptoms to serious, including fever and anemia to severe i...

AIM Tropical theileriosis is fatal hemoprotozoal disease of dairy animals caused by Theileria annulata. The aim of the present study was to detect the T. annulata and comparison of results of molecular and microscopic techniques. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 52 blood samples were collected from the cattle suspected for theileriosis across the Banaskantha district. All the samples were scr...

Arthropod transmitted hemoparasitic diseases are economically important vector-borne diseases of tropical and subtropical parts of the world including Ethiopia. Bovine theileriosis is a tick-borne hemoprotozoan disease of cattle caused by several theileria species and among them T. parva, the cause of East Coast fever and T. annulata, the causative agent of tropical theileriosis are the most pa...

In the present study, we aimed to provide information on the serum content of sialic acids (TSA, LBSA, and PBSA), total antioxidant capacity (TAC), and adenosine deaminase (ADA) activity in cattle affected with naturally acquired theileriosis and anaplasmosis. A total of 55 Holstein cattle, comprising of 15 clinically healthy control animals, 20 cattle with theileriosis, and 20 with anaplasmosi...
