“…The pattern of oocyst shedding starting on 8 dpi, reaching a peak on 10 dpi before declining increasingly rapidly from 11 dpi confirms the work of Vadlejch et al (2010), who obtained a similar pattern with Eimeria intestinalis. The presence of diarrhoea in the experimentally infected rabbits also accords with some previous studies (Vadlejch et al 2010, Elfayoumi andAbdel-Haleem 2014).…”

“…coecicola Cheissin, 1947. Out of the 15 Eimeria species infecting rabbits in different parts of the world (Li and Ooi 2009), E. intestinalis has been recognised as one of the most pathogenic and highly immunogenic species . Vadlejch et al (2010) confirmed that E. intestinalis is lethal for rabbits and causes a high mortality rate. Sporozoites of E. intestinalis first invade the mucosa of the duodenum of the rabbits, with further development occurring in the jejunum and ileum (Pakandl et al 2006).…”

Abstract:Coccidiosis is a parasitic disease caused by protists (apicomplexans) of the genus Eimeria Schneider, 1875 and is considered to be the most important disease faced by rabbit breeders due to its high morbidity. In the present study, the antioxidant status and changes in apoptosis and in the expression of some genes were quantified in rabbits' ilea following infection with Eimeria intestinalis Cheissin, 1948. Rabbits, orally infected with 1 × 10 5 sporulated oocysts of E. intestinalis, started to shed oocysts in their faeces on 8 days post infection (dpi) and reached maximum excretion on 10 dpi, with approximately 5 million oocysts. This was accompanied by a significant decrease in the live body weight of infected rabbits. Also, malondialdehyde and nitric oxide were significantly increased while catalase and glutathione were significantly decreased in the ileum tissues of the infected rabbits. In addition, a significant increase was observed in the percentages of apoptotic cells in the ilea of the infected rabbits. Furthermore, interleukin-1β and interleukin-2 mRNA levels were significantly down-regulated and mRNA levels of interleukin-6, interferon gamma and inducible nitric oxide synthase were significantly up-regulated, while those of C-reactive protein remained unchanged. We conclude that infection with E. intestinalis induces oxidative stress, a significant increase in the percentage of apoptotic cells and a diverse and robust Th1 and Th1-related cytokine response in the ileum tissues.

In study, infrared thermography (IRT) was assessed as a means of detecting the changes in body temperature in poultry coccidiosis, as well as determining IRT used in imaging and measuring the regional changes in skin temperature that occur in the poultry during this infection. Broilers were inoculated with 5×10 2 or 1×10 3 oocysts of Eimeria tennella.The group of control animals remained non-inoculated throughout the study. The study showed that coccidiosis affected temperature homeostasis in animals significantly. Body surface temperature decreases significantly (p<0.05). IRT is a promising tool that may provide a more objective an quantitative information about thermal status of animals.

There are many reports on the effect of intravenous lipid emulsion (ILE) as an antidote in drugs related toxicities. We determined the effects of ILE on neurotoxicity of haloperidol (HA), a highly lipophilic antipsychotic, as a model of antipsychotics poisoning. We used six groups of five male rabbits. Two groups received distilled water intravenously followed by infusions of either 18 mL/kg of normal saline or ILE 20%, after 30 minutes. The third group received 18 mL/kg of normal saline after HA (2.6 mg/kg) administration. The three other groups received ILE 20% solution (6, 12, and 18 mL/kg) following HA injection. Catalepsy scores, temperature, pupil size, and mortality rate were measured at 0, 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4, 8, and 24 hours after HA administration began. Blood and tissue samples were taken from all animals at 24 hours or at death time for biochemical, cell count, and pathological studies. ILE reversed cataleptic scores, miotic pupils, and hypothermia of HA intoxication much faster than normal saline (P < 0.001). Biochemical complications and mortality rate of the animals were significantly higher in the HA + 18 mL/Kg ILE group. ILE reversed sings of HA neurotoxicity; however, synergistic effect of high dose of ILE and HA increased complications and mortality.
