Hair-type sheep generate an accelerated and longer-lived humoral immune response to Haemonchus contortus infection.

Veterinary parasitology - 1 Sept 2013

Bowdridge Scott, MacKinnon Kathryn, McCann Joshua C, Zajac Anne M, Notter David R

Abstract excerpt

Antibody levels produced in response to gastro-intestinal nematode (GIN) parasite infection are typically higher in GIN-resistant breeds than susceptible breeds. Consequently, GIN-resistant ewes should generate greater parasite-specific antibody in colostrum and milk, potentially providing greater passive immunity to young lambs. To test this hypothesis, we monitored immunoglobulin levels in wool and hair-type...
