Discovery of antigens and cellular mechanisms in the protozoan parasite sarcocystis aucheniae using immunoproteomics
(MDPI, 2023-12)Sarcocystis aucheniae is a coccidian parasite that produces macroscopic sarcocysts in South American camelid (SAC) muscles and causes a disease known as SAC sarcocystosis. This parasitosis hampers the commercialization of ... -
Evaluation of frequency of antibodies against toxoplasma gondii, neospora caninum and Sarcocystis spp. and transmission routes in sheep from Humid Pampa, Argentina
(2018)The aim of this study was to describe the frequency of ovine specific antibodies to Toxoplasma gondii, Neospora caninum and Sarcocystis spp. and to estimate different transmission routes of these infections. One hundred ... -
Identification of Sarcocystis spp. in wild boars (Sus scrofa) from Argentina
(Springer, 2022-12)Sarcocystis spp. are intracellular protozoan parasites with an obligatory heteroxenous life cycle. The objective of this study is to identify Sarcocystis spp. in wild boar muscles from Argentina by light and transmission ... -
In silico identification of immunotherapeutic and diagnostic targets in the glycosylphosphatidylinositol metabolism of the coccidian Sarcocystis aucheniae
(Wiley, 2020-07)Meat of the South American camelids (SACs) llama and alpaca is an important source of animal protein and income for rural families in the Andes, and a product with significant growth potential for local and international ... -
Molecular confirmation of sarcocystis gigantean in a naturally infected sheep in Argentina: a case report.
(Elsevier, 2017-12-15)The work describes a case of Sarcocystis gigantea infection in a 3-years-old Corriedale ewe from Buenos Aires Province, Argentina. The ewe was found dead with a poor body condition. Pathological and molecular studies were ... -
Molecular detection of Sarcocystis aucheniae in the blood of llamas from Argentina
(2016-09)Sarcocystis aucheniae are apicomplexan protozoa that infect South American camelids (SACs), giving rise to macroscopic cysts similar to rice grains in skeletal muscles. Visual detection of macrocysts in slaughtered animals ... -
Molecular identification of Sarcocystis aucheniae as the macrocyst-forming parasite of llamas
(2013-12)The domestic South American camelids (SACs), llama (Lama glama) and alpaca (Lama paco), are frequently found to be infected with Sarcocystis parasites. Infections give rise in skeletal muscle to macroscopic cysts (1–5 mm ... -
Sarcocystis spp. infection in South American deer huemul (Hippocamelus bisulcus) and pudu (Pudu puda) from Patagonian National Parks, Argentina
(Springer, 2020-09-20)Sarcocystis spp. are intracellular protozoan parasites with heteroxenous life cycles. This study described Sarcocystis spp. infection in adult South American native deer huemul (Hippocamelus bisulcus) and pudu (Pudu puda). ... -
Seropositivity to Sarcocystis infection of llamas correlates with breeding practices
(2017-12)Production of llama (Lama glama) meat in rural communities of the Andean regions is largely affected by Sarcocystis spp. infection. Macroscopic cysts develop in muscles as a consequence of S. aucheniae parasitism, often ...
