In order to test the hypothesis that trypanosome cysteine proteinases (CPs) contribute to pathology of trypanosomosis. cattle were immunised with CPl and/or CP2, the major Cps of Trypanosoma congolense, and subsequently challenged with T. congolense. Immunisation had no effect on the establishmen...

Trypanosomiasis is a serious constraint to livestock production in sub-Saharan Africa. Some breeds of cattle are genetically more resistant to the pathogenic effects of trypanosome infection. We measured B-cell activation and the quantity and isotype of antibody produced at the cellular level in ...

A comparison of T-cell-mediated immune responses in trypanotolerant N'Dama and susceptible Boran cattle during primary infection with tsetse-transmitted Trypanosoma congolense was conducted to assess whether different patterns of T-cell activation occurred during trypanosome infection. Proliferat...

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-...
