Babesiosis, Texas Cattle Fever
3. Introduction
Babesia bovis is a single-celled protozoan parasite of cattle which occasionally infects humans. It is a member of the phylum Apicomplexa, which also includes the malaria parasite. The disease it and other members of the genus Babesia causes is a hemolytic anemia known as Babesiosis and colloquially called Texas Cattle Fever, Redwater or Piroplasmosis. It is transmitted by bites from infected larval ticks of the order Ixodida. It was eradicated from the United States by 1943, but is still present in Mexico and much of the world's tropics. The chief vector of Babesia species is the southern cattle fever tick Rhipicephalus microplus (formerly Boophilus microplus).

Babesia bovis are transmitted from mother ticks to their eggs, and can remain resident in tick populations for up to four years without infecting a vertebrate host. More commonly, a larval tick feeds upon a domestic cow, an African buffalo or a water buffalo, releasing the parasites into the animal's bloodstream. The involvement of the larval stage of the ticks in the cycle is specific to B. bovis; other Babesia species only involve adult ticks. The parasites then invade individual red blood cells, multiplying and destroying the host cells until the animal is stricken with hemolytic anemia. Adult ticks which feed upon infected cattle are infected themselves, completing the cycle. In humans, infection is rare and usually only affects splenectomized patients (Wiki: Babesia bovis).

  • Molecule Role Annotation : Crude extracts of Babesia bovis parasites were systematically fractionated and tested in numerous sequential vaccination/challenge experiments in adult cattle. Two of these, GST-12D3 and GST-11C5, when used in combination were almost as protective as has been previously shown for the commercially available live attenuated vaccine (Wright et al., 1992).

B. bovis T2Bo 12D3
e. Gene Engineering of 12D3
  • Type: Recombinant protein preparation
  • Description: The 12D3 protective antigen was cloned and expressed as a glutathione-S-transferase (GST) fusion protein (Wright et al., 1992).
  • Detailed Gene Information: Click here.
f. Adjuvant:

i. Cattle Response
  • Vaccination Protocol: 50 micrograms of the GST-12D3 fusion protein was mixed with FCA and used to vaccinate cattle (Wright et al., 1992).
  • Challenge Protocol: Challenged with virulent B.bovis (Wright et al., 1992).
  • Efficacy: Immunised animals had parasitaemias one order of magnitude lower than controls when challenged with a heterologous strain of B. bovis. In a series of experiments, 100% of controls were treated, whereas only 16% of the GST-12D3 vaccinated animals required treatment (Wright et al., 1992).
