Inherited Tolerance in Cattle to the Apicomplexan Protozoan is Associated with Decreased Proliferation of Parasite-Infected Lymphocytes.

is the causative agent of East Coast fever and Corridor disease, which are fatal, economically important diseases of cattle in eastern, central and southern Africa. Improved methods of control of the diseases are urgently required. The parasite transforms host lymphocytes, resulting in a rapid, clonal expansion of infected cells.

Clinical Evaluation of Corridor Disease in (Boran) Cattle Naturally Infected With Buffalo-Derived .

Corridor disease (CD) is a fatal condition of cattle caused by buffalo-derived . Unlike the related condition, East Coast fever, which results from infection with cattle-derived , CD has not been extensively studied. We describe in detail the clinical and laboratory findings in cattle naturally infected with buffalo-derived .

Exposure of vaccinated and naive cattle to natural challenge from buffalo-derived Theileria parva.

Integrative management of wildlife and livestock requires a clear understanding of the diseases transmitted between the two populations. The tick-borne protozoan parasite Theileria parva causes two distinct diseases in cattle, East Coast fever and Corridor disease, following infection with parasites derived from cattle or buffalo, respectively. In this study, cattle were immunized with a live sporozoite vaccine containing three T.
