摘要
Using an artificial feeding technique, infective particles of Theileria parva were harvested in bovine blood in capillary tubes from prefed female Rhipicephalus appendiculatus over a 2-hr period. Inoculations of this blood feed pool invariably resulted in the establishment of patent East Coast fever in autogeneic or syngeneic cattle, i.e., the blood donors or their monozygotic twins, but not in unrelated animals. Mechanical passage of 4 × 106 macroschizont-infected lymphoid cells, harvested from a heifer with East Coast fever, successfully induced patent theileriosis in the donor's monozygotic twin but not in a susceptible allogeneic bovid. The significance of parasite-cell association and histocompatibility of infected cells is discussed in relation to natural and mechanical transmission of Theileria parva. © 1978.
