Theileria parva infections cause cattle theileriosis by seizing pathways controlling the host’s cell cycle, leading to reversible host T cell transformation. However, the role of the host immune response in varied severity ...

Theileriosis is a lymphoproliferative tick-borne disease of cattle and other wild ruminants, caused by infection with a protozoan, Theileria parva. The disease is prevalent in cattle throughout Central, East and southern ...

Theileria parva utilizes genetic diversity as a survival strategy in evasion of the host’s immune system. Hence, effective control of T. parva infections is highly reliant on understanding the extent of genotypic and ...
