immunization of dog with proteins under 30 kda molecular weight of hydatid cyst fluid and protoscoleces of echinococcus granulosus

Immunization of dog with proteins under 30 kDa molecular weight of hydatid cyst fluid and protoscoleces of Echinococcus granulosus

The aim of the present study was to assess the immunogenicity of under 30kDa molecular weight proteins of hydatid cyst fluid and protoscoleces in dogs experimentaly Infected with Echinococcus granulosus. Isolation of under 30 kDa proteins performed using Millipore filter. Six dogs were used in three groups: 2 dogs with under 30 kDa proteins of hydatid cyst fluid (Group I); 2 dogs with proteins ...

Chemical Composition of Hydatid Cyst Fluid of Echinococcus granulosus

Chemical Composition of Hydatid Cyst Fluid of Echinococcus granulosus

Sumnuuy The fluid of hydatid cysts occurring in the liver and the lung have been analysed for proteins, carbohydrates, nitrogenow waste products, lipids, electrolytes and nucleic acids contents. The data obtained from the fluid of the liver cysts were compared with those obtained from the lung cysts. Furthermore, the same analyses were carried out to investigate what kind of changes, if any, oc...

Antibody response to glycan antigens of hydatid cyst fluid, laminated layer and protoscolex of Echinococcus granulosus

Background: Hydatid disease is characterized by long-term growth of hydatid cysts in the human. The glycan antigens have an important role in the immunology of hydatid cyst. In this study immunological reaction of host sera to different glycan antigens of the cyst, has been investigated. Methods: The antibody responses were tested to glycoprotein and glycolipid of the laminated layer (LL), c...

Isolation and purification of Echinococcus granulosus antigen B from hydatid cyst fluid using three different methods

Hydatid cyst, the larval stage of cestodes Echinococcus spp., is recognized as a zoonotic infection in the world. The World Health Organization (WHO) has recently classified echinococcosis in a group of neglected tropical diseases.The prevalence of Echinococcus granulosus infection is high in Iran due to the presence of various intermediate hosts in this country. Considering the rising trend of...

Anticestodal Activity of Endophytic Pestalotiopsis sp. on Protoscoleces of Hydatid Cyst Echinococcus granulosus

Surgery is still the main treatment in hydatidosis caused by Echinococcus, which is a global health problem in human and animals. So, there is need for some natural protoscolicidal agents for instillation to prevent their reoccurrence at therapeutic doses. In this present investigation, anticestodal activity of one of the endophytic fungi Pestalotiopsis sp. from Neem plant was observed on proto...
