| Dourine is caused by Trypanosoma equiperdum via coitus with an infected horse. Although dourine is distributed in Equidae worldwide and is listed as an internationally important animal disease by the World Organization for Animal Health (OIE), no effective treatment strategies have been established. In addition, there are no reports on drug discovery, because no drug screening system exists for this parasite. A new T.?equiperdum strain was recently isolated from the genital organ of a stallion that showed typical symptoms of dourine. In the present study, we adapted T.?equiperdum IVM-t1 from soft agarose media to HMI-9 liquid media to develop a drug screening assay for T.?equiperdum. An intracellular ATP-based luciferase assay using CellTiter-Glo reagent... |
