Resumo
Trypanosoma evansi é patogênico para a maioria dos animais, acometendo bovinos, bubalinos, caprinos, ovinos, suínos, cães, quatis, capivaras, camelos e outras espécies animais em áreas tropicais e subtropicais do globo terrestre sendo, no Brasil, a doença endêmica no pantanal mato-grossense. O presente estudo teve como fito principal estudar a evolução clínica, as alterações hematológicas, bioquímicas sérica, imunológicas e anatomopatológicas de bovinos infectados experimentalmente com T. evansi. Para tal, foram utilizados oito bovinos, clinicamente sadios e sorologicamente negativos para T. evansi. Três foram mantidos como testemunhos e cinco inoculados com T. evansi. Exames físicos, parasitológicos, hematimétricos e bioquímicos séricos (proteínograma, índice ictérico e glicose) e do líquido cefalorraquidiano foram realizados. Nos exames físicos realizados nos bovinos até 525° DAI não foi notada nenhuma anormalidade clínica com relação à temperatura retal, batimentos cardíacos, frequência respiratória, movimentos ruminais, aspectos de membranas mucosas (nasal, conjuntival, oral, vaginal e/ou prepucial) e dos linfonodos externos (mandibulares, maxilares, parotídeos, cervicais superficiais, sublíacos e mamários). A presença de tripomastigotas foi demonstrada através da prova biológica nos bovinos 01, 06 e 08 no15° DAI, bovinos 06 e 07 no 30° DAI, bovinos 01 e 06 no 45° DAI, bovino 06 no 60° DAI, bovino 01 no 75° DAI. As contagens de hemácias, os teores de hemoglobina e os volumes globulares dos bovinos, experimentalmente infectados, variaram dentro dos limites de normalidade para a espécie bovina. O VGM, HGM e CHGM, apresentam alterações pontuais.
Trypanosoma evansi are pathogenic to most of animals, affecting cattle, buffaloes, goats, sheep, pigs, dogs, coatis, capybaras, camels and other animals in tropical and subtropical areas of the globe, and, in Brazil, it causes an endemic disease in the Pantanal Mato Grosso. This study primarily aimed to study the clinical, hematological, biochemical, immunological and pathological alterations in cattle experimentally infected with T. evansi. For this purpose, we used eight animals, clinically healthy and serologically negative for T. evansi. Three animas were kept as evidence and five were inoculated with T. evansi. Physical, parasitological, hematological and serum biochemical (proteins, icteric index and glucose) and cerebrospinal fluid examination were performed. In the physical examination conducted in cattle up to 525th DAI were not observated any clinical abnormality in concerning rectal temperature, heart rate, respiratory rate, ruminal movements, aspects of the mucous membranes (nasal, conjunctival, oral, vaginal and / or specimen) and external nodes (mandibular, maxillary, parotid, superficial cervical, breast and sublíacos). The presence of trypomastigotes was demonstrated by bioassay in cattle 01, 06 and 08 no 15th DAI, cattle 06 and 07 at 30° DAI, cattle 01 and 06 on the 45 th DAI, cattle 06 in 60 th DAI, cattle 01 in 75 th DAI. Red blood cells counts, hemoglobin content and volume cell of experimentally infected cattle were within normal limits for the bovine species. The MCV, MHC and MCHC, showed specific changes. Physical examination of the cerebrospinal fluid did not show alterations in appearance and coloration. Morever, using the Giensa-stained blood smears, buffy coat technique (BCT) and mouse inoculation procedure were negative for T. evansi tripomastigote. Serum protein concentrations, identified 26 proteins with molecular weights ranging from 20 to 245 KD.
