TGF-b2 induction regulates invasiveness of Theileria-transformed leukocytes and disease susceptibility.

TGF-b2 induction regulates invasiveness of Theileria-transformed leukocytes and disease susceptibility.

Theileria parasites invade and transform bovine leukocytes causing either East Coast fever (T. parva), or tropical theileriosis (T. annulata). Susceptible animals usually die within weeks of infection, but indigenous infected cattle show markedly reduced pathology, suggesting that host genetic facto...
