Trypanotolerance involves an ability to both control trypanosome multiplication and resist the pathogenic effects of trypanosome infection. Studies in the African Trypanotolerant Livestock Network and elsewhere have shown that the latter capacity is more closely correlated than the former to the ...
Infections of cattle with tsetse-transmitted Trypanosoma congolense are accompanied by antibody responses to the variable surface glycoprotein (VSG) and to two major invariant antigens, a member of the hsp 70 family and a 33KDa cysteine protease. During primary infection, trypanotolerant N'Dama (...
Analysis of serum antibody responses in cattle experimentally infected with Trypanosoma congolense suggested that antibody responses of trypanosusceptible Boran cattle are less efficient in isotype switching and affinity maturation than those of trypanotolerant N'Dama cattle. High levels of polys...
The trypanosome surface coat is composed almost entirely of a homogeneous array of molecules known as variable surface glycoproteins (VSG). These molecules are highly immunogenic and elicit a strong antibody response in the infected host. Antibodies against the surface-exposed epitopes of a parti...
Differences in susceptibility of the Small East African breed of goats to an experimental Trypanosoma congolense infection were investigated. The goats were obtained from different areas of East Africa, Morogoro and Arusha (Tanzania), Imbo and Lambwe Valley (Kenya). Morogoro goats were found to b...
This study has indicated that differences in susceptiblity to Trypanosoma congolense infection exist among the 3 main breeds of goats in Uganda namely, Kigezi, Mubende and small East African (SEA). The Kigezi goats appeared to be the most susceptibe suffering more severe anaemia, greater retardat...
To determine the duration after treatment of cattle with diminazene aceturate that the drug influences the tsetse infectivity and transmissibility of a drug-resistant Trypanosoma congolense, six Boran cattle were infected with T. congolense IL 3338 via the bites of Glossina morsitans centralis. A...
