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...
Species: RuminantsTheileria parva is an intracellular protozoal parasite which causes East Coast Fever (ECF), a major constraint to cattle production in eastern and southern Africa. Characteristics of the protective CD8+ T-cell response against T. parva suggest it is focused on a limited number o...
We describe a highly sensitive, non-radioactive assay for T cell activation, based on the rapid induction of class II MHC expression by constitutively negative bovine endothelial cells, when cultured in the presence of supernatants derived from activated bovine T cells. We demonstrate the effecti...
Theileria parva has been shown to infect and transform B cells and T cells at similar frequencies in vitro. However, the majority of parasitized cells in the tissues of infected cattle are alpha/beta T cells. The aim of this study was to determine whether the cell type infected with T. parva infl...
Theileria parva causes an acute lympho-proliferative disease in cattle, which can result in death of susceptible animals within 2-3 weeks of infection. Analyses of the cellular response in the lymph node draining the site of infection demonstrated an early T cell response, with the appearance of ...
