Proteomic analysis of Schistosoma mansoni egg secretions.
Schistosomiasis remains a largely neglected, global health problem. The morbid pathology of the disease stems from the host's inflammatory response to parasite eggs trapped in host tissues. Long term host/parasite survival is dependent upon the successful modulation of the acute pathological response, which is induced by egg antigens. In this study, using Multidimensional Protein Identification...
متن کاملGlycomics analysis of Schistosoma mansoni egg and cercarial secretions.
The parasitic helminth Schistosoma mansoni is a major public health concern in many developing countries. Glycoconjugates, and in particular the carbohydrate component of these products, represent the main immunogenic challenge to the host and could therefore represent one of the crucial determinants for successful parasite establishment. Here we report a comparative glycomics analysis of the N...
متن کاملNaïve donor responses to Schistosoma mansoni soluble egg antigens.
Schistosome infection induces profound Th-biasing and immune suppression. Although much has been examined in mice, few studies have examined responses of naïve humans to schistosome antigens. In this study, we examined the response of naïve human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (nPBMC) to stimulation with Schistosoma mansoni soluble egg antigen (SEA) using a priming in vitro (PIV) assay. We ...

متن کاملGenetic epidemiology of fecal egg excretion during Schistosoma mansoni infection in an endemic area in Minas Gerais, Brazil.
There is considerable variation in the level of fecal egg excretion during Schistosoma mansoni infections. Within a single endemic area, the distribution of egg counts is typically overdispersed, with the majority of eggs excreted coming from a minority of residents. The purpose of this study was to quantify the influence of genetic factors on patterns of fecal egg excretion in a rural study sa...
