Diminazene aceturate (Berenil) modulates the host cellular and inflammatory responses to Trypanosoma congolense infection.
BACKGROUND: Trypanosoma congolense are extracellular and intravascular blood parasites that cause debilitating acute or chronic disease in cattle and other domestic animals. Diminazene aceturate (Berenil) has been widely used as a chemotherapeutic agent for trypanosomiasis in livestock since 1955. A...
