Common antigens and male-female recognition in plants
Nature, 1977THE question of how the female stigma of the plant recognises a pollen grain carrying a compatible male gamete from all the possibilities presented to it by air currents and visiting insects is an intriguing problem1. When pollen is recognised at the stigma surface, a mixture of components, including proteins and glycoproteins, are released from ...

Antibodies to cell-surface antigens of plant protoplasts
Plant Science, 1987Abstract Both mouse and rabbit polyclonal antibodies to plant cell-surface antigens were developed by immunization with cell membrane material from oat (Avena sativa L. cv. Garry) roots. We were able to quickly assess the activity of antisera by monitoring the degree of protoplast agglutination and by using an indirect immunofluorescence assay. Using

Shared Antigens of Parasitic Nematodes and Host Plants
Nature, 1973ANTIGENS which metazoan parasites share with their warm blooded hosts have been known for many years. Examples of other “common antigens” can also be found among the viruses, protozoa, bacteria and their respective hosts. The occurrence and significance of this phenomenon has been the subject of a comprehensive review1.

Expression of hepatitis B surface antigen in transgenic banana plants
Planta, 2005Embryogenic cells of bananan cv. Rasthali (AAB) have been transformed with the 's' gene of hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) using Agrobacterium mediated transformation. Four different expression cassettes (pHBS, pHER, pEFEHBS and pEFEHER) were utilized to optimize the expression of HBsAg in banana.

Targeting of plant-derived vaccine antigens to immunoresponsive mucosal sites
Vaccine, 2003Most pathogenic microorganisms enter their host via the mucosal surfaces lining the digestive, respiratory and urino-reproductive tracts of the body. The most efficient means of protecting these surfaces is through mucosal immunization. Transgenic plants are safe and inexpensive vehicles to produce and mucosally deliver protective antigens.

An overview of tolerogenic immunotherapies based on plant-made antigens
Expert Opinion on Biological Therapy, 2019Over the last two decades, genetically engineered plants became attractive and mature platforms for producing vaccines and other relevant biopharmaceuticals. Autoimmune and inflammatory disorders demand the availability of accessible treatments, and one alternative therapy is based on therapeutic vaccines able to downregulate immune responses that ...

Gold Nanoparticles for Immunogold Localization of Antigens in Plant Tissues
2012Here we describe postembedding immunoelectron microscopic technique applied to ultrathin sections of plant material. The method relies on the use of gold nanoparticles. The methods include tissue fixation, dehydration, embedding of plant specimens, and staining of semithin and ultrathin sections.
