Previous data showed that six out of a group of nine cattle inoculated with NS1-p67, a recombinant form of a 67-KDa Theileria parva sporozoite surface protein, were immune to East Coast fever. This bacterialy expressed antigen encoded all 709 amino acid residues of p67 fused to the C-terminal end...

Initial laboratory trials of an experimental subunit vaccine against Theileria parva based on the 67-kDa major sporozoite surface antigen revealed a range of responses to challenge. We have analyzed convergence in seven sets of monozygotic twins which suggests that genetic factors may have an i...

The p67 sporozoite antigen of Theileria parva has been fused to the C-terminal secretion signal of Escherichia coli hemolysin and expressed in secreted form by attenuated Salmonella dublin areA strain SL5631. The recombinant p67 antigen was detected in the supernatant of transformed bacterial cul...

Cattle that recover from Theileria parva infection are solidly immune to rechallenge with homologous parasites. Most of the ILRAD/ILRI immunological research into the disease has focused on defining the basis of this protection. Over 15 years of basic and applied immunological research at ILRAD/I...
The preparation of Theileria parva stabilates has been described by Cunningham et al (1973). The method is detailed in the FAO report (1978) and the FAO tick and tick-borne Disease Manual (1984). Theileria parva stabilates are a source of viable sporozoites that can be used to immunise cattle by ...

T cells bearing the gamma-delta antigen can constitute up to 50% of T cells in peripheral blood and lymphoid organs of calves below six months of age. This observation prompted us to investigate the involvement of gamma-delta T cells in the immune response of yound calves against Theileria parva.
We evaluated sexual recombination in the apicomplexan parasite Theileria parva using genome-wide marker analysis of haploid sporozoite populations obtained from infected Rhipicephalus appendiculatus ticks. Analysis of 231 parasite clones derived by in vitro infection of bovine lymphocytes reveale...
