“…[23][24][25] South America has a low number of reports of human babesiosis, including the first suspect case from the State of Pernambuco, a serological study in Colombia, a possible positive case in Poland that seems to have been acquired in Brazil, antibodies to Babesia in a study of co-infection with Lyme disease, and a case of a child with hepatoblastoma with a positive blood smear that suggests Babesia infection. [26][27][28][29][30] With the aim to investigate tick-borne zoonoses and to establish epidemiological data about these diseases in the northern region of the State of Espírito Santo, we visited six counties in this area, and performed serology and molecular biology to the most common tick-borne diseases in humans and domestic animals in Brazil. These counties were selected because of their recent history of BSF laboratory-confirmed cases, including fatal cases (State of Espírito Santo Health Secretary, unpublished data), and/or suspect cases of BYS (Yoshinari NH, unpublished data).…”

“…Three cases of uncharacterized babesiosis have been reported from South America, 2 from Brazil and 1 from Colombia ( 8 , 9 ). In Bolivia, only cattle have been investigated, highlighting the prevalence of the species B. bovis and B. bigemina , unstable and endemic in the east of the country ( 10 ); no data are available on B. microti .…”

“…Опухолевое проявление гемоспоридийной инфекции -это хроническое течение инвазии, при котором инфицированию подвержены эритроциты, клетки ретикулоэндотелиальной системы, паренхиматозных органов. Развивается анемия, гипоксия и интоксикация, что серьезно усугубляет процесс, и приводит к снижению функции противоопухолевого иммунитета [6,7,15,33].…”

“…Если ранее клиническое проявление кровепаразитарных (гемоспоридийных) инфекций связывали с укусами клещей, то сейчас известна роль «лучистых телец» как определенной стадии жизненного цикла тейлерий и бабезий, возникающих из яйцевидной эритроцитарной стадии, называемой гамонтами, и передающихся кровососущими насекомыми [30]. Заражение гемоспоридиями (бабезиями из семейства Piroplasmidae) возможно при переливании донорской крови и ее продуктов [18,19,27,34,35], трансплацентарно [21,22,31,32,33], при пере-садке органов и тканей [14,16,17], на экспериментальных животных (мышах) показан оральный путь заражения [28]. Не исключена вероятность полового пути заражения.…”
