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...

Contagious bovine pleuropneumonia (CBPP) is a lung disease caused by the bacterial pathogen Mycoplasma mycoides ssp. mycoides small colony type (MmmSC). It has been spreading due to a number of factors including poor vaccine efficacy and poor sensitivity of current diagnostic tests. The purpose o...

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 ...

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...

The relationship of strain specificity of class I major histocompatibility complex-restricted parasite-specific cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL) responses and cross-protection was investigated in an effort to verify the role of CTL in protection. The parasite strain specificity of the CTL responses ...

The importance of T-cell-mediate immune responses in the control of intracellular protozoan parasites is now well established 1-3. The killing of parasitized cells by T cells and cytokine-mediated effects on growth and viability of the intracellular parasites have both been implicated as effector...

The parasite strain specificity of CTL responses to Theileria parva varies among cattle immunized with the same parasite stock. We have investigated the influence of class I MHC on the strain specificity of CTL responses to T. parva in 19 cattle of defined class I phenotype immunized with either ...
