Анаплазмоз овец – кровепаразитарная трансмиссивная болезнь, вызываемая эндоглобулярным внутриэритроцитарным паразитом Anaplasma ovis Lestoguard, 1924 (порядок Rickettsiales, семейство Anaplasmataceae). Основные признаки анаплазмоза – анемия, исхудание, потеря продуктивности и нарушение воспроизводительной функции животных. Анаплазмоз наносит овцеводству значительный экономический ущерб. Основная эпизоотическая роль в распространении анаплазмоза овец принадлежит клещу Dermacentor marginatus. Этот вид клеща развивается по треххозяинному типу. Весной, с первых дней выхода животных на пастбище, D. marginatus нападает на них в стадии имаго. Прокормителями юных стадий клеща служат мелкие грызуны: мыши, суслики, хомяки и др. В июне–июле клещ не активен. В третьей декаде августа и до конца октября нападение на скот возобновляется [2]. Поэтому изыскание мер профилактики анаплазмоза овец, а именно создание вакцины, является актуальным.

Dermacentor marginatus is a known vector of Rickettsia slovaca and Anaplasma ovis distributed across Eurasia. A total of 300 D. marginatus adult male ticks were collected, removed from sheep in East Azerbaijan province, northwestern Iran. The DNA of Rickettsia and Anaplasma were found in 10 (two pools) ticks by PCR amplifying parts of ompA and msp4 genes, respectively. Our study describes the first PCR detection of tick-borne pathogens, R. slovaca and A. ovis, show that they are spread in D. marginatus of Iran highlight their risk for human and animal hosts. Different patterns (ornamentation) were observed. The identity of different patterns in this study was evaluated with cytb, 16S rRNA and ITS2 genes. BLAST analysis of the cytb, 16S rRNA, ITS2 nucleotide sequence was showed 99%, 98%–100% and 98% sequence identity to sequences of D. marginatus, respectively. It was found that all different patterns of this study are in fact a polymorphic species, D. marginatus. These data increase our knowledge of tick and tick-borne microbial agents in Iran.

Abstract Background Anaplasma are obligate intracellular bacteria and aetiological agents of tick-borne diseases of both veterinary and medical interest. The genus Anaplasma comprises six species: Anaplasma marginale, Anaplasma centrale, Anaplasma ovis, Anaplasma phagocytophilum, Anaplasma bovis and Anaplasma platys. They can infect humans, carnivores, ruminants, rodents, insectivores, birds and reptiles. The aim of this study was to present the first clinical case of granulocytic anaplasmosis in a captive ring-tailed lemur in Poland. Case presentation A 4-year-old female lemur presented anorexia, epistaxis and tick infestation. The microscopic examination of a blood smear revealed morulae in neutrophils. Polymerase chain reaction test and sequencing of obtained PCR product confirmed infection by the GU183908 Anaplasma phagocytophilum strain. Therapeutic protocol included doxycycline (2.5 mg/kg p.o., b.i.d.) for 3 weeks and the lemur recovered within 24 h. Conclusions This is the first report on granulocytic anaplasmosis in a ring-tailed lemur in Europe, indicating that A. phagocytophilum infection must also be considered in differential diagnosis in this animal species, especially in individuals with thrombocytopenia associated with Ixodes ricinus parasitism.

AbstractThis study describes the registration of the first cases of lumpy skin disease in July 2016 in the Republic of Kazakhstan. In the rural district of Makash, Kurmangazinsky district of Atyrau region, 459 cattle fell ill and 34 died (morbidity 12.9% and mortality 0.96%). To determine the cause of the disease, samples were taken from sick and dead animals, as well as from insects and ticks. LSDV DNA was detected by PCR in all samples from dead animals and ticks (Dermacentor marginatus and Hyalomma asiaticum), in 14.29% of samples from horseflies (Tabanus bromius), and in one of the samples from two Stomoxys calcitrans flies. The reproductive LSD virus was isolated from organs of dead cattle and insects in the culture of LT and MDBK cells. The virus accumulated in cell cultures of LT and MDBK at the level of the third passage with titers in the range of 5.5–5.75 log 10 TCID50/cm3. Sequencing of the GPCR gene allowed us to identify this virus as a lumpy skin disease virus.

In last ten years, there has been a developing enthusiasm for microscopic organisms from the genus Anaplasma, particularly the species A. ovis. It is associated with the pathogenic action of these microscopic organisms in livestock. Anaplasma ovis is a tick-borne obligate intracellular rickettsial bacterium that causes anaplasmosis in domestic and wild small ruminants. The samples of the present study were collected from small ruminants from inside seven distinct regions (Akre, Simele, Zummar, Feshchapoor, Deraboon, Bajed Kandal,Karoda)of Duhok province, 389 (goats 75 and sheep 314) during the period of April and May 2018, blood sample were taken and thin smear was formed, after Giemsa’s staining the slide is observed under microscope. In this study used Giemsa stain for microscopic examination out of 389 animals 250 were found positive for Anaplasma ovis infection with a prevalence rate of 64.26 % and 139 of them were negative with a prevalence rate of 35.73 %. According to the species of animals, the highest prevalence of A. ovis infection in animals by using microscopic examination was 67.83 %, 213 positive sample from total 314 blood samples from sheep and lowest prevalence was 49.33 %, 37 positive sample from total 75 blood samples from goats. PCR analysis of 100 blood samples obtained from total 250 positive blood samples after DNA extraction and measure of concentration and purity we used 2 primers that target major surface protein 4 (MSP4) in A. ovis genomic DNA. The results of PCR test with major surface protein 4 primer was 83 samples positive from total 100 samples, According to the species of animals, the highest prevalence of A. ovis was 83.7 %, 72 positive sample from total 86 blood samples from sheep and lowest prevalence was 78.5 %, 11 positive sample from total 14 blood samples from goats.

Anaplasmosis of ruminants is a group of natural focal infections caused by bacteria from the genus Anaplasma of the Anaplasmataceae family. The main etiological agent of anaplasmosis in sheep, goats, and wild ruminants is Anaplasma ovis, which parasitizes in the erythrocytes of these animals. The purpose of this study was the finding and identification of Anaplasma spp. in the blood of small ruminants using genetic methods and obtaining data on the distribution of anaplasmosis in the Irkutsk region. 20 goat blood samples, 611 sheep blood samples and 209 Dermacentor nuttalli ticks from 12 districts of the Irkutsk region were examined for the presence of Anaplasma spp. Only one type of anaplasma, A. ovis, was found among the genotyped samples. A. ovis was found in the blood of sheep and goats in all of the studied districts of the Irkutsk region. The proportion of sheep blood samples containing anaplasma DNA varied from 30 % to 85 %, in goats – from 10 % to 100 % in different districts, and averaged 57.8 % in sheep and 55,0 % in goats. Frequency of infection of D. nuttalli ticks with A. ovis was 5.7 %. The nucleotide sequences of the samples detected in the blood of small ruminants on the territory of the Irkutsk region differed from each other by a single nucleotide substitution and were identical to the sequences of the type strain Haibei, as well as the sequences of A. ovis previously found in the blood of sheep from Mongolia, deer from China, and Dermacentor niveus and Dermacentor nuttalli ticks from China. These sequences were also identical to the sequences previously found in the blood of sheep from Altai and in Dermacentor nuttalli ticks from Tuva, which indicates the wide distribution of these A. ovis genovariants in Siberia and the probable role of D. nuttalli as a carrier of the agent of anaplasmosis of small ruminants in the Irkutsk region.

Abstract Background Anaplasmosis / Ehrlichiosis are tick-borne diseases affecting human and livestock in tropical and subtropical regions of the world. Due to infection both animals and humans and monitoring of ticks and the pathogens they carry, an extensive survey was conducted in border line of Iran-Pakistan of Sistan and Baluchistan, southeast corner of Iran in 2016-2017, where animal husbandry is the main activity of people and every week thousands of cattle cross the borders into the countries. The aim of the survey was to determine the prevalence and geographical distribution of Anaplasmosis / Ehrlichiosis agents in Hyalomma spp hard ticks. Ticks were collected, identified and processed for Anaplasma / Ehrlichia spp DNA detection. Results Six Hyalomma species were found in the region, where Hy. anatolicum was the most prevalent species collected on goats, cattle, and camel. Anaplasma / Ehrlichia genomes were found in 68.3% of the specimens. Anaplasma ovis, A.marginale, and E.ewingii DNAs prevalence were 81.82, 9.09, and 9.09% in the infected ticks respectively. DNA sequence and phylogenetic analysis of the 16SrRNA gene confirmed the detection of these three anaplasmosis agents while they had 99-100% identity with the strains previously reported in genbank from different parts of the world. Conclusion Because A.ovis and A.marginale are important livestock pathogens, and E.ewingii is an important human pathogen, both farmers and people in border line of the countries which engaged in livestock need to be made aware of the risks of tick infestation and the tick-borne disease they transmit.
