TL;DR: This study is the first to report emergence of super SP resistant and multi-acaricide resistant Rhipicephalus ticks in Uganda.
Journal ArticleDOI
Divergence of the Mitochondrial Genome Structure in the Apicomplexan Parasites, Babesia and Theileria
Kenji Hikosaka,Yoh-ichi Watanabe,Naotoshi Tsuji,Kiyoshi Kita,Hiroe Kishine,Nobuko Arisue,Nirianne Marie Q. Palacpac,Shin-ichiro Kawazu,Hiromi Sawai,Toshihiro Horii,Ikuo Igarashi,Kazuyuki Tanabe +11 more
TL;DR: The results suggest that the Theileria mt genome is highly diverse with lineage-specific evolution in two TheILeria species: genome inversion in T. orientalis and gene-embedded long TIR inT.
Journal ArticleDOI
Babesial Vector Tick Defensin against Babesia sp. Parasites
Naotoshi Tsuji,Badgar Battsetseg,Damdinsuren Boldbaatar,Takeharu Miyoshi,Xuenan Xuan,James H. Oliver,Kozo Fujisaki,Kozo Fujisaki +7 more
TL;DR: Longicin showed a remarkable ability to inhibit the proliferation of merozoites, an erythrocyte blood stage of equine Babesia equi, by killing the parasites, and may play a role in regulating the vectorial capacity in the vector tick H. longicornis.
Journal ArticleDOI
A Cysteine Protease Is Critical for Babesia spp. Transmission in Haemaphysalis Ticks
Naotoshi Tsuji,Takeharu Miyoshi,Badger Battsetseg,Tomohide Matsuo,Tomohide Matsuo,Xuenan Xuan,Kozo Fujisaki,Kozo Fujisaki +7 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that longipain is essential for tick survival, and may have a role in controlling the transmission of tick-transmittable Babesia parasites.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mice Intranasally Immunized with a Recombinant 16-Kilodalton Antigen from Roundworm Ascaris Parasites Are Protected against Larval Migration of Ascaris suum
Naotoshi Tsuji,Kayo Suzuki,Harue Kasuga-Aoki,Takashi Isobe,Takeshi Arakawa,Yasunobu Matsumoto +5 more
TL;DR: A protective antigen commonly expressed in the human and pig Ascaris infections is identified as a 16-kDa protein (As16), which has no similarity at the amino acid level to mammalian proteins but has some similarity to those of the filarial parasites and Caenorhabditis elegans gene product.
