Major Surface Antigens in Zoonotic Babesia
Human babesiosis results from a combination of tick tropism for humans, susceptibility of a host to sustain Babesia development, and contact with infected ticks.

The study of neural antibodies in neurology: A practical summary
The field of Autoimmune Neurology is expanding rapidly, with new neural antibodies being identified each year. However, these disorders remain rare. Deciding when to test for these antibodies, when and what samples are to be obtained, how to handle and ...

Liposome-coupled antigens are internalized by antigen-presenting cells via pinocytosis and cross-presented to CD8 T cells. [PDF]
We have previously demonstrated that antigens chemically coupled to the surface of liposomes consisting of unsaturated fatty acids were cross-presented by antigen-presenting cells (APCs) to CD8+ T cells, and that this process resulted in the induction of

Transcriptional repression by ApiAP2 factors is central to chronic toxoplasmosis [PDF]
Tachyzoite to bradyzoite development in Toxoplasma is marked by major changes in gene expression resulting in a parasite that expresses a new repertoire of surface antigens hidden inside a modified parasitophorous vacuole called the tissue cyst.

Persistence of Antigen on the Surface of Macrophages [PDF]
MOUSE peritoneal macrophages can take up and catabolize two different haemocyanins1,2. Although in tissue culture experiments most of these materials were broken down in a few hours after uptake, haemocyanin nevertheless elicited the formation of specific antibodies when the macrophages were transferred to syngeneic hosts, and the haemocyanin bound to ...

The Surface Antigens of Paramecium aurelia [PDF]
SUMMARY: A surface antigen preparation obtained from Paramecium aurelia absorbs from a concentrated antiserum approximately 74% of the total antibody absorbed by the intact animal. An antiserum prepared against this preparation immobilized P. aurelia of the same serotype.

Trypsin digest of cancer cells surface stimulates anti-tumor immune response better than cancer cells themselves [PDF]
Antigens expressed on the surface of cancer cells are accessible targets for both humoral and cell-mediated immune responses, and are therefore potential candidates for vaccine development.
