To provide useful information based on the macropathology, histopathology and immunohistochemical investigation in the spleens of dogs with Babesia rossi infection. Control spleens were collected from four healthy dogs euthanized for welfare reasons. Nine dogs that died naturally because of a mono-infection with Babesia rossi were selected for the diseased group.

- The study examines immune responses in cattle breeds (Brahman, Bonsmara, and Holstein-Friesian) against tick infestations by analyzing lymph nodes and skin samples.
- It finds that tick-resistant breeds exhibit different immune cell dynamics compared to susceptible breeds, particularly with variations in B-lymphocytes and T-lymphocytes during tick exposure.
- The results indicate that the ability to resist ticks is linked to specific immune cell behaviors, suggesting potential pathways for improving tick resistance in cattle through immune regulation.
