چکیده مقاله:

Introduction: Toxoplasma gondii (T. gondii) is distributed worldwide and infects most species. The serious incidence and severe or fatal injury caused by T. gondii infection clearly indicates the necessity for the event of a vaccine. The current study goals were to evaluate serological applications of Toxoplasma gondiirhoptry protein 1 (ROP1) antigen. Materials and methods: We created a polymer vaccine by using the eukaryotic plasmid, pROP1. Purification by one-step metal affinity chromatography allowed recovery of milligram amounts of purified recombinant proteins per liter of culture. The quality of this matter for diagnosing of human infections was provided and tested on 77 serum samples which were obtained during routine diagnostic tests. A panel of 20 serum samples from patients with acute toxoplasmosis was compared to a panel of 35 serum samples from individuals with chronic toxoplasmosis. Results: Results of the study indicated that antibodies detected from patients with acute and chronic infections were 96% and 17%, respectively, by using of pROP1 recombinant antigen. Conclusion: According to the present study an immunoglobulin G antibody against ROP1 antigen is made throughout the acute stage of toxoplasmosis infection, but not in the chronic phase of toxoplasmosis.

Cloning rhoptry protein 1 (ROP1) gene of Toxoplasma gondii (RH) in expression vector

  Toxoplasma gondii contain various immunogenic antigens. The most important Toxoplasma antigens are somatic and excreted/secreted antigens. Rhoptry proteins are known as excreted/secreted antigens. These antigens have been proposed as a vaccine candidate against toxoplasmosis. The main objective of the present work was cloning rhoptry protein1 (ROP1) Gene of Toxoplasma gondii (RH) in a cloning...

a preliminary study: expression of rhoptry protein 1 (rop1) toxoplasma gondii in prokaryote system

background toxoplasma gondii is an obligatory intracellular protozoan parasite, which infects human beings. since the current antigens used for diagnosis or vaccination are contaminated with non parasitic material in which the parasite is grown, it is tried to produce recombinant antigens to design vaccines against toxoplasmosis, or make diagnostic kits. choosing the type of antigen to produce ...

بررسی کارایی عملکرد آنتی‌ژن‌نوترکیب ROP1 در تشخیص عفونت توکسوپلاسما گوندی

Introduction:Toxoplasma gondii is a ubiquitous obligate intracellular parasite with a relatively broad host range infecting both mammals and birds. Toxoplasma proteins are strong antigens that can begin strong immune reactions, among which Rhoptry protein 1 (ROP1) can be named discharging from rhoptry cell-organ. ROP1 is regarded as a competitor for recombinant vaccines against toxoplasmosis. T...

The Toxoplasma gondii Rhoptry Kinome Is Essential for Chronic Infection

UNLABELLED Ingestion of the obligate intracellular protozoan parasite Toxoplasma gondii causes an acute infection that leads to chronic infection of the host. To facilitate the acute phase of the infection, T. gondii manipulates the host response by secreting rhoptry organelle proteins (ROPs) into host cells during its invasion. A few key ROP proteins with signatures of kinases or pseudokinases...
