The development of Theileria annulata in the salivary glands of the vector tick Hyalomma anatolicum anatolicum

The development at 28 degrees C of Theileria annulata (Hissar) in the salivary glands of its tick vector, Hyalomma anatolicum anatolicum, was studied using Giemsa-stained smears, methyl green-pyronin-stained preparations of whole glands, and electron microscopy. Nymphs which…

A high-frequency polymorphism in exon 6 of the CD45 tyrosine phosphatase gene (PTPRC) resulting in altered isoform expression

CD45 (leukocyte common) antigen is a hemopoietic cell-specific tyrosine phosphatase essential for antigen receptor-mediated signaling in lymphocytes. The molecule undergoes complex alternative splicing in the extracellular domain, and different patterns of CD45 splicing are…

Development of a polyclonal competitive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for detection of antibodies to Ehrlichia ruminantium

A polyclonal competitive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (PC-ELISA) is described for detection of antibodies to Ehrlichia (Cowdria) ruminantium by using a soluble extract of endothelial cell culture-derived E. ruminantium as the antigen and biotin-labeled polyclonal goat…

Mouse respiratory epithelial cells support efficient replication of human rhinovirus

Human rhinoviruses (HRV) are responsible for the majority of virus infections of the upper respiratory tract. Furthermore, HRV infection is associated with acute exacerbation of asthma and other chronic respiratory diseases of the lower respiratory tract. A small animal…
