Comparison of different antigens for Leishmanin skin test in patients with cutaneous Leishmaniasis

Background: Cell-mediated immunity (CMI) plays an important role in resistance against leishmaniasis. Leishmanin test (Montenegro skin test) is a method in evaluation of immune system reaction against cutaneous leishmaniasis. The TDR/WHO reference Leishmanin produced by the Pasteur Institute of Iran is used worldwide. Two other antigens produced by Razi Serum Institute of Iran, Killed Leishmani...

Evaluation of Protoscolex Antigens for Hydatidosis Detection before and after Surgery

Introduction Cystic echinococcosis (CE) is a zoonotic infection caused Echinococcus granulosus with worldwide distribution. As one of the problems that can be encountered after treating CE patients is the risk of postsurgical relapses or treatment failure, a long-term clinical and serological follow-up is required to evaluate the success and failure of therapy. Materials and Methods We used e...

In silico analysis of Omp25 and BLS Brucella melitensis antigens for designing subunit vaccine

Brucellosis is a well-known infection in domestic animals which caused by Brucella bacterium. Due toserious economic and medical consequences of this disease, various efforts have been made to prevent theinfection through the use of recombinant vaccines based on Brucella outer membrane protein (OMP)antigens. The objectives of the present study were cloning, sequencing and epitope prediction of ...
