Memory T- and B-cell responses to trypanosome antigens were measured in peripheral blood mononuclear cells, spleen and lymph node cells obtained from 4 trypanotolerant N'Dama cattle which had been exposed to 6 experimental infections with Trypanosoma congolense. These cattle were treated with try...
T-cell-mediated immune responses to defined antigens of Trypanosoma congolense were measured in cattle undergoing primary infection. The antigens used were the variable surface glycoprotein and two invariant antigens, a 33-kDa cysteine protease (congopain) and a recombinant form of a 69-kDa heat-...
African animal trypanosomosis (nagana) is arguably the most important parasitic disease affecting livestock in sub-Saharan Africa. Since none of the existing control measures are entirely satisfactory, vaccine development is being actively pursued. However, due to antigenic variation, the quest f...
Trypanotolerance involves an ability to both control trypanosome multiplication and resist the pathogenic effects of trypanosome infection. Studies in the African Trypanotolerant Livestock Network and elsewhere have shown that the latter capacity is more closely correlated than the former to the ...
Infections of cattle with tsetse-transmitted Trypanosoma congolense are accompanied by antibody responses to the variable surface glycoprotein (VSG) and to two major invariant antigens, a member of the hsp 70 family and a 33KDa cysteine protease. During primary infection, trypanotolerant N'Dama (...
