Nuclear receptors in parasitic nematodes
Introduction One of the most prevalent classes of parasitic organisms is the helminth (parasitic worms), which collectively infect more than 1 billion people worldwide and cause a range of maladies including malnutrition, growth and mental retardation, disfigurement and physical disabilities, and death (1). Helminths that infect humans are generally considered to comprise two major phyla: Nemat...
متن کاملTransgenesis in Strongyloides and related parasitic nematodes: historical perspectives, current functional genomic applications and progress towards gene disruption and editing
Transgenesis for Strongyloides and Parastrongyloides was accomplished in 2006 and is based on techniques derived for Caenorhabditis elegans over two decades earlier. Adaptation of these techniques has been possible because Strongyloides and related parasite genera carry out at least one generation of free-living development, with adult males and females residing in soil contaminated by feces fr...
متن کاملA genetic nomenclature for parasitic nematodes.
A uniform system of genetic nomenclature for parasitic nematodes is presented. Conventions for naming strains, genes, alleles, and loci identified as DNA polymorphisms are established, and a standardized system for naming molecular clones is proposed.

the number of bacteria per dauerjuvenile. Preliminary data established similar LD50s and LT50s for X. nematophilus subsp, nematophilus (from the DD 136 strain) and X. nematophilus subsp, nematophilus vat. mexicanus (from the Mexican strain). The absence of toxin production by either S.feltiae strain or bacterial types in a culture medium similar to the host's hemolymph has been reported (5,6). ...
