“…Pathogenicity is usually recorded as an increase in WBC counts (7,29). Constant levels recorded for WBC and neutrophil counts suggest that the equine immune system did not recognize L. equigenerosi Le1 as a pathogen.…”

ABSTRACTLactobacillus equigenerosistrain Le1, a natural inhabitant of the equine gastrointestinal tract, survived pH 3.0 and incubation in the presence of 1.5% (wt/vol) bile salts for at least 2 h. Strain Le1 showed 8% cell surface hydrophobicity, 60% auto-aggregation, and 47% coaggregation withClostridium difficileC6. Only 1% of the cells adhered to viable buccal epithelial cells and invaded the cells within 20 min after contact. Preincubation of strain Le1 in a buffer containing pronase prevented adhesion to viable epithelial cells. Preincubation in a pepsin buffer delayed invasion from 20 min to 1 h. Strain Le1 did not adhere to nonviable epithelial cells. Administration ofL. equigenerosiLe1 (1 × 109CFU per 50 kg body weight) to healthy horses did not increase white blood cell numbers. Differential white blood cell counts and aspartate aminotransferase levels remained constant. Glucose, lactate, cholesterol, and urea levels remained constant during administration withL. equigenerosiLe1 but decreased during the week after administration.

“…A review on host resistance to tick borne diseases is documented in cattle (Correia de Almeida Regitano & Prayaga, 2010). As for other species, the case of the tolerance to tickborne diseases shown by the sheep and horse native to Apulia is emblematic Rubino et al, 2006). In southern Italy, and particularly in Apulia, pyroplasmosis represents a longstanding and heavy burden for every type of livestock farm (Ceci & Carelli, 1999).…”

“…Present anemia may attributed to, Immunomediated phenomena by which autoantibodies directed against component of membrane of infected and uninfected erythrocytes, production of toxic hemolytic factors of the parasite, mechanical damage by trophozoite intra erythrocytes binary fission. erythrophagocytosis and through of release vasoactive molecules such as kallikrein [2,3,4], and [5]. On the other hand, according to the role of liver in lipidbiosynthesis, it can be argued that liver may play an important compensatory role in balancing lipid components in blood flow to prevent anemia during bovine tropical theileriosis [6].…”

Babesia bigemina plays an important role in causing liver and kidney dysfunction in affected animals. The aim of this study evaluating the toxic effect of babesiosis on liver and kidney by measuring biochemical parameters and pathological tissue changes in infected animals with B. Bigemina and chose the best method of treatment. A total of 40 cattle age 1-3 years 30 were suffered from increase in temperatures, off food, Hemoglobin urea, red water from endemic area with babesia. Take sample from infected animals & examine it with microscopic examination found babesia bigemina and confirm by inoculation of heparinized blood from this animals in rats and found rats death at fifth day from infection and histopathological exam found babesia in piroplasma form in pathological tissue of rat's liver & kidney. The infected animals were divided into three groups each group 10 animals untreated group use as control positive and treated groups divided into two groups first group treated with imidocarb only and the second group use imidocarb and lincomcyn as antibiotic drug and compare between two groups by measuring liver& kidney function improvement and compare two groups with negative and positive group which method of treatment more effective in treatment of babesia & decrease toxic effect of babesia.
