Trypanosomes are covered with a dense layer of antigenically identical glycoproteins. These molecules are highly immunogenic and elicit an antibody response in the infected host. Antibodies against the surface-exposed epitopes of the trypanosome variable surface glycoproteins (VSG) mediate the de...

Antibody responses to invariant antigens of Trypanosoma congolense in cattle of differing susceptibility to trypanosomiasis
A bioassay was used to measure erythropoietin (EPO) concentrations in calves with haemorrhagic anaemia due to blood loss and in calves with anaemia due to Trypanosoma congolense infection. The bioactivity of EPO was measured in the assay by its stimulatory effect on 125I-deoxyuridine incorporatio...

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-...
