proteomic analysis of the changed proteins of trichinella spiralis infective larvae after co-culture in vitro with intestinal epithelial cells.the purpose of this study was to determine the protein changes in trichinella spiralis muscle larvae (ml) after in vitro co-culture with intestinal epithelial cells, and to analyze the changed proteins. muscle larvae were incubated with hct-8 cells for 18 h and the ml soluble proteins were analyzed by sds-page and western blot. results showed that seven additional protein bands (123, 77, 58, 36, 30, 28 and 21 kda) were recognized by sera from infected mice after culture with hct-8 cells. three p ...201323433641
modulation of inflammatory bowel disease in a mouse model following infection with trichinella spiralis.infection of mice with trichinella spiralis redirects the mucosal immune system from a th1 to a protective th2 response with a reduction in the severity of trinitrobenzesulfonic acid-induced colonic damage. t. spiralis infection induced il-10 production in a dose-dependent manner in oxazolone (oxz)-induced colitis. this phenomenon may be responsible for the lack of efficacy of t. spiralis in the treatment of oxz-induced colitis. these results indicate that if the source of increased il-10 produc ...201323433604
an anti-tumor protein produced by trichinella spiralis induces apoptosis in human hepatoma h7402 cells.trichinella spiralis infection confers effective resistance to tumor cell expansion. in this study, a t7 phage cdna display library was constructed to express genes encoded by t. spiralis. organic phase multi-cell screening was used to sort through candidate proteins in a transfected human chronic myeloid leukemia cell line (k562) and a human hepatoma cell line (h7402) using the display library. the protein encoded by the a200711 gene was identified and analyzed using protein analysis software. ...201323433602
survey of trichinella infections in domestic pigs from northern and eastern henan, china.the aim of this work was to investigate the current situation of trichinella infections in swine in the cities of anyang and shanqiu in the henan province historically designated as trichinellosis-free. a total of 475 diaphragm muscle samples were collected from 2010 to 2011 and examined by trichinelloscopy and artificial digestion. no trichinella larvae were detected by trichinelloscopy; however, using the digestion method, 3.79% (18/475) of domestic pigs were deemed positive for trichinella. a ...201323422779
construction and use of a trichinella spiralis phage display library to identify the interactions between parasite and host enterocytes.although it has been known for many years that trichinella spiralis initiates infection by penetrating the columnar epithelium of the small intestine, the mechanisms by which t. spiralis infective larvae recognize and invade the intestinal epithelial cells (iecs) are unknown. it is speculated that the molecular interactions between the parasite and host enterocytes may mediate the recognition and invasion of iecs by t. spiralis. however, no trichinella proteins that interact with the enterocytes ...201323420409
participation of myd88 and interleukin-33 as innate drivers of th2 immunity to trichinella spiralis.trichinella spiralis is a highly destructive parasitic nematode that invades and destroys intestinal epithelial cells, injures many different tissues during its migratory phase, and occupies and transforms myotubes during the final phase of its life cycle. we set out to investigate the role in immunity of innate receptors for potential pathogen- or danger-associated molecular patterns (pamps or damps). focusing on the myd88-dependent receptors, which include toll-like receptors (tlrs) and interl ...201323403558
protective immunity against trichinella spiralis infection induced by a multi-epitope vaccine in a murine model.trichinellosis is one of the most important food-borne parasitic zoonoses throughout the world. because infected pigs are the major source of human infections, and china is becoming the largest international producer of pork, the development of a transmission-blocking vaccine to prevent swine from being infected is urgently needed for trichinellosis control in china. our previous studies have demonstrated that specific trichinella spiralis paramyosin (ts-pmy) and ts-87 antigen could provide prot ...201324130862
the vasculature of nurse cells infected with non-encapsulated trichinella species.the vasculature surrounding the nurse cells of encapsulated trichinella spiralis has been described previously. it has been postulated the function of these vessels is to support the growth of the parasite. we describe here for the first time the vasculature surrounding the nurse cells of non-encapsulated t. pseudospiralis and t. papuae. similar to the vasculature of uninfected muscle cells, the vessels surrounding non-encapsulated trichinella nurse cells are dense and branched longitudinally al ...201324050088
the occupation of intestinal epithelium by trichinella spiralis in balb/c mice is not associated with local manifestation of apoptosis related factors.trichinella spiralis actively passes through the epithelial cells of the intestinal mucosa but morphologically, these cells do not manifest apparent damage. the possible activation of apoptotic mechanisms in the small intestine mucosa after infection with larvae and adults of trichinella spiralis was explored by immunohistochemistry. sporadic individual cells of normal intestinal epithelium showed activation of caspase-3, increased expression aif, or bax. the larval stage of intestinal trichinel ...201324037538
analysis of differentially expressed genes of trichinella spiralis larvae activated by bile and cultured with intestinal epithelial cells using real-time pcr.the activation of trichinella spiralis muscle larvae (ml) by exposure to intestinal contents or bile and the intestinal epithelial cells (iecs) themselves are two pivotal requirements for the in vitro larval invasion of iecs. however, it is yet unknown which genes are involved in the process of larval invasion. the purpose of the present study was to analyze the differentially expressed genes of t. spiralis larvae activated by bile and cultured with iecs by using real-time polymerase chain react ...201324026388
novel albendazole formulations given during the intestinal phase of trichinella spiralis infection reduce effectively parasitic muscle burden in mice.trichinellosis is a zoonotic disease affecting people all over the world, for which there is no speedy and reliable treatment. albendazole (abz), an inexpensive benzimidazole used in oral chemotherapy against helminthic diseases, has a broad spectrum activity and is well tolerated. however, the low absorption and variable bioavailability of the drug due to its low aqueous solubility are serious disadvantages for a successful therapy. in this study, we evaluated the in vivo antiparasitic activity ...201323993995
immune response to a trichinella spiralis infection in house mice from lines selectively bred for high voluntary wheel running.four lines of mice bred for high voluntary wheel running (hr lines) have high baseline circulating corticosterone levels and increased daily energy expenditure as compared with four non-selected control (c) lines. high corticosterone may suppress immune function and competing energy demands may limit ability to mount an immune response. we hypothesized that hr mice have a reduced immune response and therefore a decreased ability to fight an infection by trichinella spiralis, an ecologically rele ...201323948476
trichinella spiralis immunomodulation: an interactive multifactorial process.many epidemiological data support the postulate that infection with helminths might provide some protection against allergic and autoimmune diseases. hence arises the concept that helminths strongly influence the immune system and enable protective pathways against these hyperimmune-associated disorders. this review discusses how trichinella spiralis can make the immune system smarter in dealing with hyperimmune-associated disorders. t. spiralis possesses the capacity to direct the immune system ...201323899237
interleukin-25 (il-25) promotes efficient protective immunity against trichinella spiralis infection by enhancing the antigen-specific il-9 response.mammalian hosts often develop distinct immune response against the diverse parasitic helminths that have evolved for immune evasion. interleukin-25 (il-25), an il-17 cytokine family member, plays a key role in initiating the protective immunity against several parasitic helminths; however, the involvement and underlying mechanisms by which il-25 mediates immune response against trichinella spiralis infection have not been investigated. here we showed that il-25 functions in promoting protective ...201323897610
therapeutic potential of myrrh and ivermectin against experimental trichinella spiralis infection in mice.trichinosis is a parasitic zoonosis caused by the nematode trichinella spiralis. anthelmintics are used to eliminate intestinal adults as well as tissue-migrating and encysted larvae. this study aimed to investigate the effects of ivermectin and myrrh obtained from the aloe-gum resin of commiphora molmol on experimental trichinosis. ninety albino mice were orally infected with 300 t. spiralis larvae. drugs were tested against adult worms at day 0 and day 5 and against encysted larvae on day 15 a ...201323864740
proteomic analysis of trichinella spiralis muscle larval excretory-secretory proteins recognized by early infection sera.although the excretory-secretory (es) proteins of trichinella spiralis muscle larvae are the most commonly used diagnostic antigens for trichinellosis, their main disadvantage is the false negative results during the early stage of infection and cross-reaction of their main components (43, 45, 49, and 53 kda) with sera of patients with other helminthiasis. the aim of this study was to identify early specific diagnostic antigens in t. spiralis es proteins with 30-40 kda. the es proteins were anal ...201323844355
identification of differentially expressed genes of trichinella spiralis larvae after exposure to host intestine milieu.although it has been known for many years that t. spiralis muscle larvae (ml) can not invade intestinal epithelial cells unless they are exposed to the intestinal milieu and activated into intestinal infective larvae (iil), which genes in iil are involved in the process of invasion is still unknown. in this study, suppression subtractive hybridization (ssh) was performed to identify differentially expressed genes between iil and ml. ssh library was constructed using cdna generated from iil as th ...201323840742
taurine drinking attenuates the burden of intestinal adult worms and muscle larvae in mice with trichinella spiralis infection.the parasitic nematode trichinella spiralis can cause trichinellosis, which leads to pathological processes in the intestine and muscle. the intestinal invasion determines the development, subsequent course, and consequences of the disease. gastrointestinal nematode infection, including with t. spiralis, is accompanied by a rapid and reversible expansion of mucosal mast cell and goblet cell in the intestinal epithelium, which play important roles in the host immune response to parasite and worm ...201323832642
neurotrichinellosis.trichinellosis is a parasitic zoonosis caused by the nematode trichinella spp. neurotrichinellosis represents one of the most important complications of severe trichinellosis in humans and is sometimes fatal, especially when trichinella spiralis is involved. there are numerous mechanisms responsible for the involvement of the nervous system through direct or indirect involvement of the parasite. in the latter, inflammatory cells, especially eosinophils, appear to play a crucial role. encephalopa ...201323829915
adaptive immunity alters distinct host feeding pathways during nematode induced inflammation, a novel mechanism in parasite expulsion.gastrointestinal infection is often associated with hypophagia and weight loss; however, the precise mechanisms governing these responses remain poorly defined. furthermore, the possibility that alterations in feeding during infection may be beneficial to the host requires further study. we used the nematode trichinella spiralis, which transiently inhabits the small intestine before migrating to skeletal muscle, as a biphasic model of infection to determine the cellular and molecular pathways co ...201323349631
comparison of three molecular detection methods for detection of trichinella in infected pigs.different molecular detection methods require diverse molecular platforms, but there is no uniform standard for people to reference in the detection of trichinella. in this study, real-time pcr, loop-mediated isothermal amplification (lamp), and conventional pcr were developed for the detection of trichinella by targeting mitochondrial large subunit ribosomal dna (mt-lsrdna). we compared the performance of the three newly developed assays. the results revealed that the detection limits of the re ...201323334692
mast cells recruited to mesenteric lymph nodes during helminth infection remain hypogranular and produce il-4 and il-6.mast cells (mc) and basophils share expression of the high-affinity receptor for ige (fcεri) but can be distinguished by their divergent expression of kit and cd49b. in balb/c mice, mc lineage cells expressing high levels of fcεri by flow cytometry were seen only in bone marrow whereas those expressing intermediate levels of fcεri were present in bone marrow and spleen of naive mice and in mesenteric lymph nodes (mln) of trichinella spiralis-infected mice. these fcεri(+)kit(+)cd49b(-) cells had ...201323319739
application of dendritic cells stimulated with trichinella spiralis excretory-secretory antigens alleviates experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis.the parasitic nematode, trichinella spiralis (t. spiralis), exerts an immunomodulatory effect on the host immune response through excretory-secretory products (es l1) released from encysted muscle larvae. our model of combined t. spiralis infection and experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (eae) in dark agouti (da) rats demonstrated a significant reduction in eae severity in infected animals. recently, we have created an immune status characteristic for the live infection by in vivo applicat ...201323307236
phage-displayed specific polypeptide antigens induce significant protective immunity against trichinella spiralis infection in balb/c mice.trichinellosis is a public health problem and is considered an emerging/re-emerging disease in various countries. the etiological agent of trichinellosis is the nematode trichinella, which infects humans, domestic animals and wildlife. a veterinary vaccine could be an option to control the disease in domestic animals. although several vaccine candidates have shown promising results, a vaccine against trichinellosis remains unavailable to date. phage particles are especially ideal vaccine deliver ...201323306358
protection against allergic airway inflammation during the chronic and acute phases of trichinella spiralis infection.modulation of the host immune response by helminths has been reported to be essential for parasite survival and also to benefit the host by suppressing inflammatory diseases such as allergies. we have previously shown that excretory-secretory products of trichinella spiralis muscle larvae have immunomodulatory properties and induce in vitro the expansion of cd4(+) cd25(+) foxp3(+) treg cells in a tgf-β-dependent manner.201323278885
vaccination of mice with an antigenic serine protease-like protein elicits a protective immune response against trichinella spiralis infection.trichinellosis has major economic impacts on animal husbandry and food safety, and the control and elimination of trichinellosis is a major objective of veterinary medicine. a gene encoding serine protease of trichinella spiralis (ts-adsp) was identified by immunoscreening an adult t. spiralis cdna library. in this study, the recombinant ts-adsp protein (rts-adsp) was cloned and expressed in a prokaryotic expression system and purified by ni-affinity chromatography. to determine whether the puri ...201323252743
par-2-mediated control of barrier function and motility differs between early and late phases of postinfectious gut dysfunction in the rat.proteinase-activated receptor-2 (par-2) and mast cell (mc) mediators contribute to inflammatory and functional gastrointestinal disorders. we aimed to characterize jejunal par-2-mediated responses and the potential mc involvement in the early and late phases of a rat model of postinfectious gut dysfunction. jejunal tissues of control and trichinella spiralis-infected (14 and 30 days postinfection) rats, treated or not with the mc stabilizer, ketotifen, were used. histopathology and immunostainin ...201323238933
unique antigenic gene expression at different developmental stages of trichinella pseudospiralis.parasite-induced and parasite-regulated larval capsule formation and host immunosuppression are two major characteristics that are unique in trichinella spp. infections, but the molecule(s) and mechanism(s) that mediate these processes remain largely unknown. trichinella pseudospiralis and trichinella spiralis, are obviously different with respect to these two characteristics. a comparative study of these two species, in particular their antigen expression profiles at different developmental sta ...201323433603
[research progress on the mechanism of host immune response regulated by trichinella spiralis].trichinosis caused by trichinella spiralis is a parasitic zoonosis with world-wide distribution, which impacts on the development of animal husbandry and food safety, and thus threatens human health. t. spiralis has the ability to evade the host immune response, which results in forming a long-term infection in the host. the previous studies indicated that a changed host immune state due to t. spiralis was an important reason for the evasion. among the factors, cytokines, dendritic cells and reg ...201324809201
the genome of romanomermis culicivorax: revealing fundamental changes in the core developmental genetic toolkit in nematoda.the genetics of development in the nematode caenorhabditis elegans has been described in exquisite detail. the phylum nematoda has two classes: chromadorea (which includes c. elegans) and the enoplea. while the development of many chromadorean species resembles closely that of c. elegans, enoplean nematodes show markedly different patterns of early cell division and cell fate assignment. embryogenesis of the enoplean romanomermis culicivorax has been studied in detail, but the genetic circuitry ...201324373391
verifiable hypotheses for thymosin β4-dependent and -independent angiogenic induction of trichinella spiralis-triggered nurse cell formation.trichinella spiralis has been reported to induce angiogenesis for nutrient supply and waste disposal by the induction of the angiogenic molecule vascular endothelial cell growth factor (vegf) during nurse cell formation. however, the action mechanism to induce vegf in nurse cells by t. spiralis is not known. hypoxia in nurse cells was suggested as a possible mechanism; however, the presence of hypoxic conditions in infected muscle or nurse cells and whether hypoxia indeed induces the expression ...201324351861
proteomic analysis of surface proteins of trichinella spiralis muscle larvae by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis and mass spectrometry.trichinella spiralis is a zoonotic tissue-dwelling parasitic nematode that infects humans and other mammals. its surface proteins are recognized as antigenic in many infected hosts, being directly exposed to the host's immune system and are the main target antigens that induce the immune responses. the larval surface proteins may also interact with intestinal epithelial cells and may play an important role in the invasion and development process of t. spiralis. the purpose of this study was to a ...201324330777
