Study of biological properties of trichinella spiralis newborn larvae and the antiparasitic mucosal immunity of the host.
نویسنده
چکیده
Studies of biological properties of newborn larvae of Trichinella spiralis and immune responses against newborn larvae in the host are reviewed. The biological properties of newborn larvae examined are the natural production, migration, surface antigens and their maturity and effects on the host. Various mechanisms of host immunity to newborn larvae are reviewed, including the stage specificity, kinetics, cell-mediated vs. antibody-dependent immunity in the mucosal and other tissues of the host.

Characterization of kinetics of anti-Trichinella spiralis newborn larvae immunity in rats.
The kinetics of anti-T. spiralis newborn larvae (NBL) immunity and its dose effects were studied in vivo. Rats were either immunized with newborn larvae i.v. or muscle larvae per os and challenged with newborn larvae either i.v. or i.p. on day 7 up to day 27 after immunization. Immunity was assessed by examining the muscle larvae burden or the larval recovery from the peritoneal cavity. Recover...
متن کاملAmelioration of Myogenin, Bcl-2 expression and DNA damages in myocytes of Trichinella spiralis-infected mice after immunization with gamma radiation-attenuated larvae
Background: In trichinosis, the presence of muscle larvae inside skeletal striated muscle causes loss of identity and function of myotube through the releasing of myogenin and myosin. Considering the dominant role of vaccination, research on gamma radiation-attenuated vaccine has very promising value. The goal of this study was to determine the efficacy of vaccination with radiation-attenuated ...
متن کاملA study of proteases throughout the life cycle of Trichinella spiralis.
In the present report we study the proteolytic activity of the excretion-secretion and crude extracts of different stages of Trichinella spiralis (Owen, 1835) Railliet, 1895, (muscle-stage larvae, adult worms before and after mating, and newborn larvae) using natural substrates (structural and hematic mammalian proteins). The analysis of the results allow us to set up a certain stage-specificit...
متن کاملExpressed sequence tags from life cycle stages of Trichinella spiralis: application to biology and parasite control.
While the approach taken to date to study Trichinella spp., involves mainly characterization of individual genes of interest, we initiated a genomics approach as an antecedent to more complete genome sequencing. Our approach involves use of expressed sequence tags (ESTs) obtained from three life cycle stages of Trichinella spiralis; adult worms (AD), mature muscle larvae (ML) and immature L1 la...
متن کاملMechanisms of killing of newborn larvae of Trichinella spiralis by neutrophils and eosinophils. Killing by generators of hydrogen peroxide in vitro.
Eosinophil and/or neutrophil leukocytes appear to have important roles in host defense against invasive, migratory helminth infestations, but the mechanisms of larval killing by leukocytes are uncertain. This study examines killing of newborn (migratory phase) larvae of Trichinella spiralis during incubation with granule preparations of human eosinophils or neutrophils and generators of hydroge...
