Les études épidémiologiques sont nombreuses sur ce parasite. Les travaux relatifs à l'écologie sont assez rares, ceux concernant la morphométrie ou la génétique, très rares. Des études antérieures ont montré l'isolement des fermes caprines en ce qui concerne les infestations par les helminthes. Les méthodes d'élevage sont très différentes selon les fermes, et les populations parasitaires pourraient être diversifiées.

Abstract:
Teladorsagia circumcincta is a major financial burden on the UK sheep farming industry. Disease control is becoming increasingly difficult due to the rapid emergence of anthelmintic resistance. This has prompted the search for alternative, sustainable control measures, including vaccination. Vaccine design would be aided by a thorough knowledge of the mechanisms involved in immunity to T.circumcincta. Most research has focussed on humoral and cellular responses to infection with this nematode. This thesis focuses on the impact of infection with regards to the proteins found locally within the

Abstract:
Teladorsagia circumcincta, an economically-important abomasal nematode of small ruminants in temperate regions worldwide, is currently controlled with a combination of anthelmintics and pasture management. Anthelmintic resistance has emerged and vaccination is a potential alternative control strategy, as protective immunity in sheep can be acquired after repeated exposure to the parasite. Abomasal mucosal IgA responses in immune sheep have been correlated with delayed worm development and reduced faecal egg counts. However, recombinant vaccine development against parasitic nematodes has had li

Abstract:
Anthelmintic resistance in parasitic nematodes of small ruminants is widespread and, in some parts of the world, threatens the sustainability of sheep production. The mechanisms whereby parasitic nematodes become resistant to anthelmintics, particularly ivermectin, remain to be determined. The majority of studies to date have investigated target site mutations; relatively little attention has been paid to the role of gene expression changes.

Teladorsagia circumcincta is a parasitic nematode which is a major cause of ovine parasitic gastroenteritis in temperate climatic regions. The parasite has developed resistance to the major anthelmintic drug classes and this challenges its future control. Vaccination is a potential alternative control method since sheep are able to develop protective immunity against this parasite. Although potential vaccine candidates have been revealed, the increasing gene datasets suggest that vaccinetarget selection may be aided by screening methods such as RNAi.

The abomasal helminth Teladorsagia circumcincta is one of the most economically important parasites to affect the farming of sheep and goats.

Due to the spreading resistance of this parasite to all currently available classes of anthelmintic drugs, it is having an increasingly severe impact on the sheep industry with significant implications for sheep welfare.

Parasitic nematodes of grazing livestock represent an increasing economic and welfare problem for British agriculture. By investigating specific life-cycle stages of these parasites, it may be possible to identify key molecules or pathways that are required for the survival of the worms, and thus exploit these for future control strategies. It has been shown previously that the third larval stages (L3) of the ovine parasitic nematode Teladorsagia circumcincta produce high levels of transcript for the enzyme GTP-Cyclohydrolase relative to later developmental stages.

Teladorsagia circumcincta is a common abomasal parasite of sheep in temperate regions and is one of the major causes of parasitic gastroenteritis (PGE) in growing lambs. Control of infection is achieved using anthelmintic drugs; however, this practice is rapidly becoming unsustainable due to widespread anthelmintic resistance within the T. circumcincta population. Sheep can acquire protective immunity against this parasite; immunity involves local and systemic antibodies and immune cells which can impair worm growth and fecundity and lead to expulsion of the parasites from the abomasum.

Widespread and unconstrained use of anthelmintics has resulted in selection for resistant strains of nematode, particularly within the T. circumcincta species.

Parasites have a major impact on host condition and fitness and thereby represent a strong selective force for individuals in wild populations. The main defence against parasite infection and associated morbidity is the host immune response, and consequently it is expected for there to be strong selection eroding genetic variation underlying immune responses in natural populations. However, studies in the wild have found considerable heritable variation underlying immune responses.
