African trypansosomes are tsetse-transmitted parasites of chief importance in causing disease in livestock in regions of sub-Saharan Africa. Previous studies have demonstrated that certain breeds of cattle are relatively resistant to infection with trypanosomes, and others are more susceptible. B...

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...

Trypanosomosis is the most economically important disease constraint to livestock productivity in sub-Saharan Africa and has significant negative impact in other parts of the world. Livestock are an integral component of farming systems and thus contribute significantly to food and economic secur...

Autor: Taylor, K.A.

Trypanosomosis in domestic livestock negatively impacts food production and economic growth in many parts of the world, particularly in sub-Saharan Africa. Current methods of control are inadequate to prevent the enormous annual socio-economic losses resulting from this disease. Hope for a vaccin...

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...
