ciliated/flagellated protozoan, regardless of the site of infection. Three trichomonads – Trichomonas tenax, Trichomonas vaginalis, and Pentatrichomonas hominis
26 fowleri, causes a fulminant disease called primary amebic meningoencephalitis (PAM) in an extremely small percentage of people who come in contact with it. As this protozoan tends to inhabit warm, fresh water, most victims acquire the organism while swimming.1 Amebae enter the swimmer’s nose and access the subarachnoid space of the CNS via the olfactory neuroepithelium and olfactory nerves.1...
متن کاملTreatment of infections caused by metronidazole-resistant Trichomonas vaginalis.
Infections with the sexually transmitted protozoan Trichomonas vaginalis are usually treated with metronidazole, a 5-nitroimidazole drug derived from the antibiotic azomycin. Metronidazole treatment is generally efficient in eliminating T. vaginalis infection and has a low risk of serious side effects. However, studies have shown that at least 5% of clinical cases of trichomoniasis are caused b...
متن کاملTrichomonas vaginalis genital infections: progress and challenges.
Trichomonas vaginalis (TV) infection is the most prevalent curable sexually transmitted infection in the United States and worldwide. Most TV infections are asymptomatic, and the accurate diagnosis of this infection has been limited by lack of sufficiently sensitive and specific diagnostic tests, particularly for men. To provide updates for the 2010 Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's ...
متن کاملTrichomonas vaginalis
We have investigated the effects of a novel neutrophil-activating factor released by Trichomonas vaginalis (TV-NAF) on neutrophil chemotaxis. TV-NAF was present in the supernatant from 107 T. vaginalis (STV) cultured in 1 ml of serum-free Hanks' balanced salt solution (HBSS) at 37°C for 30 min. With a multichamber chemotactic assay, we found that there were 112 + 15 migrated neutrophils (mean ±...
متن کاملArginine metabolism in Trichomonas vaginalis infected with Mycoplasma hominis
Both Mycoplasma hominis and Trichomonas vaginalis utilize arginine as an energy source via the arginine dihydrolase (ADH) pathway. It has been previously demonstrated that M. hominis forms a stable intracellular relationship with T. vaginalis; hence, in this study we examined the interaction of two localized ADH pathways by comparing T. vaginalis strain SS22 with the laboratory-generated T. vag...
