Development and optimization of enzyme linked immunoassays as readout system for activation of theileria parva-specific cytotoxic T lymphocytes.
Immunity against Theileria parva in cattle is mediated by cytotoxic T lymphocytes (eTL) targeted at schizont-infected cells. Antigens expressed by the schizont stage of the parasite that induce protective immune response are possible candidates for sub-unit vaccine against ECF. Upon recognition and...
