Schwartz, J.C.Hemmink, J.D.Graham, S.P.Tchilian, E.Charleston, B.Hammer, S.E.Ho, C.S.Hammond, J.A.[The major histocompatibility complex homozygous inbred Babraham pig as a resource for veterinary and translational medicine]The major histocompatibility complex homozygous inbred Babraham pig as a resource for veterinary and translational medicine

Theileria parva causes an acute fatal disease in cattle, but infections are asymptomatic in the African buffalo (Syncerus caffer). Cattle can be immunized against the parasite by infection and treatment, but immunity is partially strain specific. Available data indicate that CD8+ T lymphocyte res...

IvanWeir, W.Silva, J.Bishop, Richard P.[Two Theileria parva CD8 T Cell Antigen genes are more variable in buffalo than cattle parasites, but differ in pattern of sequence diversity]Two Theileria parva CD8 T Cell Antigen genes are more variable in buffalo than cattle parasites, but differ in pattern of sequence diversity

An infection and treatment protocol is used to vaccinate cattle against Theileria parva infection. Due to incomplete cross-protection between different parasite isolates, a mixture of three isolates, termed the Muguga cocktail, is used for vaccination. While vaccination of cattle in some regions ...


Hemmink, J.D.Weir, W.MacHugh, Niall D.Graham, S.P.Patel, EktaPaxton, E.Shiels, B.Toye, Philip G.Morrison, W. IvanPelle, Roger[Limited genetic and antigenic diversity within parasite isolates used in a live vaccine against Theileria parva]Limited genetic and antigenic diversity within parasite isolates used in a live vaccine against Theileria parva

Massively parallel signature sequencing (MPSS) was used to analyze the transcriptome of the intracellular protozoan Theileria parva. In total 1 095 000, 20 bp sequences representing 4371 different signatures were generated from T.parva schizonts. Reproducible signatures were identified within 73%...

East Coast fever, caused by the tick-borne intracellular apicomplexan parasite Theileria parva, is a highly fatal lymphoproliferative disease of cattle. The pathogenic schizont-induced lymphocyte transformation is a unique cancer-like condition that is reversible with parasite removal. Schizont-i...


Graham, S.P.Pelle, RogerHonda, Y.Mwangi, D.M.Tonukari, N.J.Yamage, M.Glew, E.J.Villiers, Etienne P. de[Theileria parva candidate vaccine antigens recognized by immune bovine cytotoxic T lymphocytes]Theileria parva candidate vaccine antigens recognized by immune bovine cytotoxic T lymphocytes

Immunity against the bovine protozoan parasite Theileria parva has previously been shown to be mediated through lysis of parasite-infected cells by MHC class I restricted CD8+ cytotoxic T lymphocytes. It is hypothesized that identification of CTL target schizont antigens will aid the development ...

Although immunodominance of CD8+ T-cell responses is a well-recognised feature of viral infections, its role in responses to more antigenically complex pathogens is less clear. In previous studies we have observed that CD8+ T-cell responses to Theileria parva exhibit different patterns of parasit...


MacHugh, Niall D.Connelley, T.Graham, S.P.Pelle, RogerFormisano, P.Taracha, E.L.N.Ellis, S.A.McKeever, Declan J.Burrells, A.Morrison, W. Ivan[CD8+ T-cell responses to Theileria parva are preferentially directed to a single dominant antigen: Implications for parasite strain-specific immunity]CD8+ T-cell responses to Theileria parva are preferentially directed to a single dominant antigen: Implications for parasite strain-specific immunity

East Coast fever (ECF) is a highly fatal lymphoproliferative disease of cattle caused by Theileria parva, a tick-borne intracellular apicomplexan parasite. Parasite antigens that are targets of protective cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) responses are required to formulate a sub-unit vaccine against ...

Immunity against the bovine intracellular protozoan parasite Theileria parva has been shown to be mediated through the destruction of parasite infected lymphocytes by MHC class I restricted CD8+ CTL. Six parasite proteins targeted by CTL from T. parva immune cattle have been identified and raised...

Theileria parva antigens recognized by cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) are prime vaccine candidates against East Coast Fever in cattle. A strategy for enhancing induction of parasite-specific T cell responses by increasing recruitment and activation of dendritic cells (DCs) at the immunization sit...
