Pontes,Leticia Gomes de; Altei,Wanessa Fernanda; Galan,Asier; Bilić,Petra; Guillemin,Nicolas; Kuleš,Josipa; Horvatić,AnitaAbstract Background: Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are small membrane-bound vesicles of growing interest in vetetinary parasitology. The aim of the present report was to provide the first isolation, quantification and protein characterization of EVs from buffalo (Bubalus bubalis) sera infected with Theileria spp. Methods: Infected animals were identified through optical microscopy and PCR. EVs were isolated from...

Anti-leptospirosis agglutinins in Brazilian capybaras (hydrochoerus hydrochaeris)
Langoni,Helio; Kuribara,Ivone Yumi; Correa,Ana Paula Ferreira Lopes; Ullmann,Leila Sabrina; Sánchez,Gabriela Pacheco; Lucheis,Simone BaldiniAbstract Background The interest in commercial use of wild animals is increasing, especially regarding raising of capybaras. Although this wild species is potentially lucrative for the production of meat, oil and leather, it is suggested as a probable reservoir of leptospires. Methods Due to the economic importance of this species and the lack of studies concerning leptospirosis, the presence of anti-leptospiro...
Coinfection by Toxoplasma gondii and Leishmania spp. in domestic cats (Felis ca...
Braga,Audrey Rennó Campos; Corrêa,Ana Paula Ferreira Lopes; Camossi,Lucilene Granuzzio; Silva,Rodrigo Costa da; Langoni,Helio; Lucheis,Simone BaldiniIntroduction Leishmaniasis and toxoplasmosis are important to public health. Methods Antibodies for Toxoplasma gondii and Leishmania spp. were evaluated in cats from Campo Grande, State of Mato Grosso do Sul, Brazil, a region endemic for canine visceral leishmaniasis. Serum samples from 50 asymptomatic cats were titrated for T. gondii by the immunofluorescence antibody test and modified agglutination test and f...
