Disease relevance of Trypanosomiasis, Bovine

• Tsetse and trypanosomiasis survey of Southern Darfur Province, Sudan. I. Bovine trypanosomiasis [1].

High impact information on Trypanosomiasis, Bovine

• Isometamidium chloride (Samorin) is the only compound recommended for prophylaxis against bovine trypanosomiasis in sub-Saharan Africa. The fluorescence property of this compound was used to investigate the interaction of the molecule with in vitro-derived bloodstream forms of Trypanosoma congolense IL 1180 [2].
• The control of bovine trypanosomiasis in Africa continues to rely heavily on the chemoprophylactic drug isometamidium (ISMM) chloride [3].
• The review discusses the current field status of human and bovine trypanosomiases, and focuses on the molecular basis of innate and acquired control of African trypanosomes in people, cattle, and Cape buffalo [4].
• These results suggest that there is an ineffective erythroid response in the face of elevated EPO concentrations during bovine trypanosomiasis [5].
• Epidemiology of bovine trypanosomiasis in the Ghibe valley, southwest Ethiopia. 3. Occurrence of populations of Trypanosoma congolense resistant to diminazene, isometamidium and homidium [6].

Chemical compound and disease context of Trypanosomiasis, Bovine

• The paper calls for judicious use of Berenil and Samorin, as they are the only sanative pairs available for the chemotherapy of bovine trypanosomiasis [7].
• Experimental bovine trypanosomiasis (Trypanosoma vivax and T. congolense). II. Serum levels of total protein, albumin, hemolytic complement, and complement component C3 [8].
• Plasma lactose concentration and its kinetics were determined in apparently normal cattle, as a prelude to investigating its chemotherapeutic significance in bovine trypanosomiasis [9].

Gene context of Trypanosomiasis, Bovine

• Depleted serum haptoglobin in acute bovine trypanosomiasis [10].
