An assessment of tick-borne diseases constraints to livestock production in a smallholder livestock production system in Machakos District, Kenya
(Department of Public Health, pharmacology and Toxicology, University of Nairobi, 2010)The principle objective of the study was to determine the tick- borne diseases constraints to livestock production in Machakos District. The survey was carried out in eight randomly selected sub- locations spread across ... -
C3 contributes to the cross-protective immunity induced by Babesia gibsoni phosphoribo protein P0 against a lethal B. rodhaini infection
(Department of Public Health Pharmacology and Toxicology, 2008)We have studied the impact of complement component 3 (C3) deficiency on the progression of lethal Babesia rodhaini infection in immune mice. A B. gibsoni ribosomal phosphoriboprote in P0 (BgP0) previously reported to be ... -

Cloning, characterization and validation of inosine 5′-monophosphate dehydrogenase of Babesia gibsoni as molecular drug target
(Department of Public Health, Pharmacology and Toxicology, 2013-04)The inosine monophosphate dehydrogenase (IMPDH) enzyme has been characterized and validated as a molecular drug target in other apicomplexans but not in the genus Babesia. Subsequently, we cloned and expressed a Babesia ... -
