Dietary cinnamaldehyde enhances acquisition of specific antibodies following helminth infection in pigs

Veterinary Immunology and Immunopathology, 2017
Dietary phytonutrients such as cinnamaldehyde (CA) may contribute to immune function during pathogen infections, and CA has been reported to have positive effects on gut health when used as feed additive for livestock. Here, we investigated whether CA could enhance antibody production and specific immune responses during infection with an enteric ...

Antibodies to IL-3 and IL-4 suppress helminth-induced intestinal mastocytosis

The Journal of Immunology, 1991
Abstract Rodents infected with the nematode parasite Nippostrongylus brasiliensis (Nb) develop intestinal mastocytosis, eosinophilia, and elevated serum IgE levels. Although IL-4 and IL-5 are necessary for stimulation of IgE synthesis and eosinophilia, respectively, the cytokines that regulate gut mast cell hyperplasia have not been ...

In vitro parasite antigen-induced antibody responses in human helminth infections.

The Journal of Immunology, 1985
Abstract Helminth parasites characteristically induce vigorous antibody responses in human infections, but the immunoregulatory mechanisms determining the level of these responses are not at all understood. To investigate these mechanisms, peripheral blood mononuclear cells were obtained from 10 patients with parasitic helminth ...

Antigen-Antibody Reactions in Helminth Infections

1963
Publisher Summary Work on the antigen-antibody reactions in helminth infections has involved a wide range of mammalian species as hosts and has also included almost the complete range of parasitic helminths. Nevertheless, despite their large size and multifarious migrations, the helminths generally stimulate satisfactory immune responses that can be ...

The Relationship between Circulating Antibodies and Immunity to Helminthic Infections

1970
Publisher Summary This chapter demonstrates the protective effect of humoral antibodies for helminthic infections that have been put into hosts other than the normal species. The results obtained under these conditions are better than those occuring in the normal host–parasite systems; this suggests that the antibodies have a part to play in ...

Antibody response to Schistosoma haematobium and other helminth species in malaria-exposed populations from Burkina Faso

Acta Tropica, 2020
Infection with helminths in sub-Saharan Africa could modulate the immune response towards Plasmodium falciparum as well as susceptibility to malaria infection and disease. The aim of this study is to assess the antibody responses to helminths species in malaria-exposed populations from Burkina Faso.

IMMUNOFLUORESCENT LOCALIZATION OF INTERMEDIATE FILAMENTS (IFs) IN HELMINTHS USING ANTI-MAMMALIAN IFs MONOCLONAL ANTIBODY

Journal of Parasitology, 2000
Intermediate filaments (IFs) make up the cytoskeleton of most eukaryotic cells. In vertebrates, a number of IF proteins have been identified, showing distributions unique to tissue or cell type. Information on helminth IFs is limited to some nematode species.

Detection of anti-helminth antibody by microenzyme-linked immunosorbent assay using recombinant antigen and anti-β-galactosidase monoclonal antibody

Journal of Immunological Methods, 1994
An enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) using antigenic beta-galactosidase-helminth derived recombinant fusion protein (FP) obtained by the recombinant DNA technique provided a useful diagnostic tool for human helminthiasis. Helminth-infected human sera reacted strongly with FP that was immobilized with anti-beta-galactosidase monoclonal antibody ...

Antibodies to Selected Canine Pathogens and Infestation with Intestinal Helminths in Golden Jackals (Canis aureus) in Israel

The Veterinary Journal, 2001
Blood and fecal samples, collected from 46 healthy adult free-ranging golden jackals captured in two different locations in Israel, were examined. A serological Study was conducted to investigate the prevalence of circulating antibodies reacting with four common canine pathogens: canine distemper virus (CDV), canine parvovirus (CPV), Ehrlichia canis ...

Modeling the contribution of antibodies to the within-host dynamics of single and dual helminth infections in a natural system

2022
Abstract Within-host models of infection can provide important insights into the processes that affect parasite spread and persistence in host populations. However, modeling is often limited by the availability of empirical data, a problem commonly encountered in natural systems.
