Hematologic values in calves infected with Sarcocystis cruzi. 1986

E A Mahaffey, and J W George, and J R Duncan, and K W Prasse, and R Fayer

Calves were inoculated with 2 X 10(5) Sarcocystis cruzi sporocysts. Red cell mass decreased dramatically between Days 21 and 35 post-infection and plasma volume increased concurrently, so that blood volume did not change significantly. Mild reticulocytosis and increased pyrimidine 5' nucleotidase activity in erythrocytes occurred between Days 35 and 42. Antiglobulin tests with anti-bovine IgG, IgM and C3 were negative, with the exception of a positive test for C3 in 1 of 6 infected calves.

D007074 Immunoglobulin G The major immunoglobulin isotype class in normal human serum. There are several isotype subclasses of IgG, for example, IgG1, IgG2A, and IgG2B.

D007075 Immunoglobulin M A class of immunoglobulin bearing mu chains (IMMUNOGLOBULIN MU-CHAINS). IgM can fix COMPLEMENT. The name comes from its high molecular weight and originally was called a macroglobulin. Gamma Globulin, 19S,IgM,IgM Antibody,IgM1,IgM2,19S Gamma Globulin,Antibody, IgM

D012156 Reticulocytes Immature ERYTHROCYTES. In humans, these are ERYTHROID CELLS that have just undergone extrusion of their CELL NUCLEUS. They still contain some organelles that gradually decrease in number as the cells mature. RIBOSOMES are last to disappear. Certain staining techniques cause components of the ribosomes to precipitate into characteristic "reticulum" (not the same as the ENDOPLASMIC RETICULUM), hence the name reticulocytes. Reticulocyte

D003176 Complement C3 A glycoprotein that is central in both the classical and the alternative pathway of COMPLEMENT ACTIVATION. C3 can be cleaved into COMPLEMENT C3A and COMPLEMENT C3B, spontaneously at low level or by C3 CONVERTASE at high level. The smaller fragment C3a is an ANAPHYLATOXIN and mediator of local inflammatory process. The larger fragment C3b binds with C3 convertase to form C5 convertase.
