This report reviews information on Serious Adverse Events (SAE), mainly Loa-encephalopathy, following treatment with ivermectin (Mectizan®, Merck, Sharpe & Dohme) for control of onchocerciasis carried out by the African Programme for Onchocerciasis Control (APOC), in areas where heavy microfilarial infections with Loa loa are coendemic with Onchocerca volvulus infections. It also endeavours to ...
BACKGROUND Onchocerciasis has been implicated in the pathogenesis of epilepsy. The debate on a potential causal relationship between Onchocerca volvulus and epilepsy has taken a new direction in the light of the most recent epidemic of nodding syndrome. OBJECTIVE To document MRI changes in people with different types of epilepsy and investigate whether there is an association with O. volvulus...
The laboratory maintenance and rearing of Stimulium damnosum complex species and the cytotaxonomic determination of reared larvae, has been useful to OCP in the following fields of investigation: 1. Species identification of reinvading females. 2. Distribution of biting populations of S. damnosum complex species. 3. Identification of eggs and small larvae found within the OCP area. 4. Host pref...
Adult Onchocerca voluvlus and infective larvae, but not microfilariae contain an immunodominant antigen (33,000 and 21,000 Mr in females, 39,000, 33,000, and 21,000 Mr in males, 133,000 Mr in infective larvae) which is recognized by an Onchocerca-specific mAb. The component is part of the reproductive organs and muscles. 96.2% of onchocerciasis sera contained antibodies detectable by immunoblot...
Reconnection rate is found for the canonical simplest case of steadystate two-dimensional symmetric reconnection in an incompressible plasma by matching of outer Petschek solution and internal diffusion region solution. The reconnection rate obtained naturally incorporates both Sweet–Parker and Petschek regimes, the latter seems to be possible only for the case with strongly localized resistivity.
Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) has been shown to be important for the induction of Th2-dependent immune responses in mice. Protective immunity against larval Onchocerca volvulus in mice depends on the development of a Th2 immune response mediated by both interleukin-4 (IL-4) and IL-5. In addition, O. volvulus contains the rickettsial endosymbiont Wolbachia, which has molecules with lipopolysacchar...
