Protozoan infections

A major advance in antimalarial drug discovery has been the shift towards cell-based phenotypic screening, with notable progress in the screening of compounds against the asexual blood stage, liver stage, and gametocytes. A primary method for drug target deconvolution in Plasmodium falciparum is in vitro evolution of compound-resistant parasites followed by whole-genome scans.

Toxoplasmosis is caused by the protozoan parasite Toxoplasma gondii (T. gondii), which is one of the most widespread zoonotic pathogens known today. It is a global health hazard as they infect 30-50% of the world’s human population.

There are three main forms of leishmaniases: Visceral (the most serious form because it is almost always fatal without treatment), cutaneous (the most common, usually causing skin ulcers), and mucocutaneous (afecting mouth, nose, and throat). Leishmaniasis is caused by protozoan parasites, which are transmitted by the bite of infected female phlebotomine sandfies.

Cryptocaryon irritans is an obligate parasitic ciliate protozoan that can infect various commercially important mariculture fish species and cause high lethality and economic loss. Current methods of controlling this parasite with chemicals or antibiotics are widely considered to be environmentally harmful. Piscidins with broad spectrum antibacterial, antifungal and antiviral activities were found to have potent activity against C. irritans. Little, however, has been understood about the killing mechanisms of piscidins in parasites.

Clinical parasitism occurs less frequently in goats, however, the parasites of the stomach and intestine could lead to scouring, dehydration, anemia, depression and eventually death. The incidence of gastro-intestinal helminthic and protozoan parasites was identified by coprological survey made in diarrhoeic goats brought to the Teaching Veterinary Clinical Complex (TVCC), Veterinary College and Research Institute, Namakkal. The study revealed the incidence of gastrointestinal parasites predominantly by Eimeria spp. and Strongylus spp. followed by Moniezia spp., Strongyloides spp.

Protozoa are unicellular parasites which infect a number of animals including human. For diagnosis of protozoa recent research has been focused almost exclusively on molecular based techniques for the identification and quantification of parasite DNA in samples. The development of molecular tools has allowed the diagnosis, as well as the study of the genetic variability of pathogens and the identification of species-specific markers. Paper review details about the recent advance technique in important protozoan parasite in animal.

Babesiosis is economically the most important arthropod-borne disease of cattle worldwide caused by protozoan parasite of the genus Babesia. Among several species of Babesia, Babesia bigemina and Babesia bovis are most common in tropical and subtropical region. There are age-related immunity to primary infection of cattle with Babesia bovis and Babesia bigemina. Generally young calves exhibit a strong innate immunity in comparison to adult cattle.

Entero-parasites protozoan of the genera Cryptosporidium and Giardia have emerged over the past decades as major waterborne pathogens with an increasing number of outbreaks reaching over one hundred and sixty. In line with the national goals of providing safe drinking water supplies, this research was designed. We aimed to estimate the prevalence of Cryptosporidium parvum and Giardia intestinalis infections in surface water plants from ShebinAl-Kom and Tala, Menoufia Governorate and to evaluate routine water purification methods used for parasitic elimination.
