Cell Biological Characterization of the Malaria Vaccine Candidate Trophozoite Exported Protein 1
In a genome-wide screen for alpha-helical coiled coil motifs aiming at structurally defined vaccine candidates we identified PFF0165c. This protein is exported in the trophozoite stage and was named accordingly Trophozoite exported protein 1 (Tex1). In an extensive preclinical evaluation of its coiled coil peptides Tex1 was identified as promising novel malaria vaccine candidate providing the r...
متن کاملEntamoeba histolytica: adhesins and lectins in the trophozoite surface.
Entamoeba histolytica is the causative agent of amebiasis in humans and is responsible for 100,000 deaths annually, making it the third leading cause of death due to a protozoan parasite. Pathogenesis appears to result from the potent cytotoxic activity of the parasite, which kills host cells within minutes. Although the mechanism is unknown, it is well established to be contact-dependent. The ...
متن کاملThe Giardia lamblia trophozoite contains sets of closely related chromosomes.
Size variations in homologous chromosomes from six Giardia lamblia isolates have been demonstrated. Four or five intensely stained (major) bands as well as a variable number of lightly stained (minor) bands are present in pulsed field gradient separations. Southern blot analysis with total chromosomal DNA as well as chromosome specific probes indicates that each minor band cross-hybridizes with...
متن کاملA simple method for demonstrating the giardia lamblia trophozoite.
INTRODUCTION Giardia lamblia is a flagellated protozoan parasite of man. Only 2 stages i.e. the trophozoite and the cyst forms are observed in the life cycle of Giardia. The Giardia infection is acquired from drinking water or by eating food which is contaminated with cysts. The symptoms of the Giardia infection are foul smelling diarrhoea, flatulence, steatorrhoea, etc. Stool samples from the ...
متن کاملGiardia duodenalis: analysis of secreted proteases upon trophozoite-epithelial cell interaction in vitro.
Protease secretion by Giardia duodenalis trophozoites upon interaction with epithelial cells and its association with the parasite adhesion was studied in co-cultures of parasites with IEC6 epithelial cell monolayers in the presence or absence of protease inhibitors. Proteolytic activity in supernatants from trophozoites was enhanced when they were co-cultured with IEC6 cells. This activity was...
