1 Activities of OIE Collaborating Centre for Surveillance and Control of Animal Protozoan Diseases and Protozoan Diseases in wildlife Prof. Ikuo Igarashi National Research Center for Protozoan Diseases Obihiro University of Agriculture and Veterinary Medicine, Obihiro, Hokkaido, Japan

2 Today s topics 1. Introduction of protozoan diseases 1. Activities of OIE collaborating centre for surveillance and control of animal protozoan diseases 2. Protozoan diseases in wildlife 1. SFTS in Japan

3 What are protozoa? A single animal cell Capable of performing 3 primary functions -nutrition, -locomotion, -reproduction There are over 65,000 species of protozoa, mostly microscopic, mostly NOT parasitic Several hundreds protozoa causes serious diseases in human and for many animals.

4 Top 20 global animal diseases in developing countries 1. Theileria parva (East Coast Fever) 2. Tick infestation 3. Theileria annulata 11. Babesiosis 16. Trypanosoma evansi Theileria Trypanosoma Babesia Ticks Protozoan diseases cause a great economical losses world wide

5 Comparison of viruses, bacteria and protozoa Genomic size Gene number Viruses 0.2Mb several tens Bacteria Protozoa 1 10Mb 10 50Mb 1,000 2,000 1,000 10,000 Prevention & treatment antiviral drugs vaccine, antibiotics vaccine, very few anti-protozoa drugs (strong side-effects, drug resistance) Fewer effective drugs and vaccines International collaborations is essential for the control of protozoan diseases

6 Chronology National Research Center for Protozoan Diseases 1990, June Established as The Research Center for Protozoan Molecular Immunology 1995, Oct.

19 Protozoan diseases in wildlife Climate change Pollution Population expansion Poverty & starvation Food security Food supply Problems of 21 st century Infectious diseases

20 Malaria Plasmodoium falciparum, P. vixax, P. ovale, P. malariae Transmitted by mosquito Fever, anemia, splenomagaly 2~3 hundred million patients More than one million deaths in Sub-Saharan Africa Endemic areas of malaria Anopheles Malaria parasite

21 Zoonotic primate malaria parasites

22 Plasmodium knowlesi Identified by Prof. P. Knowles and Das Gupt in Calcutta in 1903 Host: Macaca fascilaris (primate) Similar morphology to P. falciparum (early blood stage) and P. malariae (mature blood stage and gametocytes) 24-h asexual blood stage cycle, no hypnozoites Dr. S. Kawai (Dokkyo Univ.)

23 The first human infection: An USA citizen from Malaysia in 1965 Eastern Malaysia in 2004: 120/208 (58%) were positive by PCR. Recognized as the fifth human malaria Spread of human infection in other regions: Thailand(2004), Myanmar/China border(2006), the Philippines(2008), Singapore(2008), Finland (2009),Vietnam(2009), Sweden (2009), USA (2009),.

24 Clinical symptoms: Patients: Workers at plantation, residents in forest Symptoms: Head ache, fever(39-40c), chill Fatal cases: Respiratory distress, sequestration in brain, mortality 1-2% Treatment: chloroquine Epidemiology in Malaysia: All malaria cases; 2000: 12,705 cases, 2010: 4,725 cases Primate malaria in humans; 1992: 1% of all malaria cases 2011: 35% of all malaria cases Destroy of forests due the development is suggested to be associated with the increase of primate malaria in humans.

25 Plasmodium cynomolgi Natural hosts:macaca fascicularis, M. nemestrina, M. cyclopis Vector: Anopheles leucophyrus P. cynomolgi P. vivax Reproduction time: 48hrs Similar morphology to P. vivax Known to be iefective to humans

26 Babesiosis Babesia Parastize erythrocytes Transmitted by ticks Cause similar symptoms to malaria Eighty percent of cattle are at risk for the infection Distribution of babeisosis Hemoglobiurea (left) Vector ticks Cerebral babesiosis (downs)

27 Human babesiosis The first human infection was found in B. microti; North America, B. divergens : Europe B. microti B. divergens Emerging Babesia parasites: Babesia duncani: USA Babesia venatorum (EU1): Austria, Italy, Germany

28 Epidemiology USA: more than 500 human cases since 1957 Europe: Around 30 human cases since 1969 The first human infection was found in Kobe in 1999

29 Transmission of B. microti

30 Treatment:

31 Severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome (SFTS) The disease was emerged in China in SFTS bunyavirus (STFSV) was initially reported in China in ,000 SFTS case-patients have been reported. Clinical symptoms: high fever, vomiting, diarrhea, thrombocytopenia, leukopenia, and multiple organ failure. Mortality: 6% 30%, mainly in the eastern provinces of China Life cycle of the: Ticks (R. miroplus, H. longicornis) appear to transmit the SFTSV. Humans Ticks Animals

32 Epidemiology of SFTS in eastern Asia

33 Distribution of SFTS in Japan Haemaphysalis longicornis ticks

34 Case No. Emerging of SFTS in Japan Total number 33: male 12, female 21 Age distribution median 73 ~40s 1 50s 4 60s 6 70s 9 80s 10 90s~ 3 Fetal cases 11 March April May June July Aug. Sep. in 2013

35 Clinical course of SFTS Fatal case Virus burden Recovered case Fever Organ failure Recover Affected organs Spleen bone marrow Kidneys liver
