| Özet |
| In the present study, we aimed to provide information on the serum content of sialic acids (TSA, LBSA, and PBSA), total antioxidant capacity (TAC), and adenosine deaminase (ADA) activity in cattle affected with naturally acquired theileriosis and anaplasmosis. A total of 55 Holstein cattle, comprising of 15 clinically healthy control animals, 20 cattle with theileriosis, and 20 with anaplasmosis, were used. Diagnosis was based on clinical signs, Giemsa stained blood or lymph node aspirate, and PCR assay. For the PCR assay, Tams 1 primers were used. The obtained results suggested that the concentration of sialic acids and ADA activity were significantly higher; and TAC were significantly lower in the theileriosis and anaplasmosis groups in contrast to the control group. In conclusion, the increased level of sialic acids and ADA in theileriosis and anaplasmosis may be attributable to the stimulation of the host immune response. In contrast, the reduced level of TAC may reflect a decrease in the antioxidant capacity. |
