The application of proteomic methods (MALDI-toff MS) for studying protein profiles of some nematodes (dirofilaria and ascaris) for differentiating species

International Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2019
Introduction: Matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization time of flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-toff MS) is a reliable method for diagnosing a number of bacterial and fungal infections.

Yeast-expressed recombinant As16 protects mice against Ascaris suum infection through induction of a Th2-skewed immune response. [PDF]

PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2017
BACKGROUND:Ascariasis remains the most common helminth infection in humans. As an alternative or complementary approach to global deworming, a pan-anthelminthic vaccine is under development targeting Ascaris, hookworm, and Trichuris infections.

Superoxide dismutase fromAscaris suum

Parasitology, 1988
SummaryThree superoxide dismutases (SOD) (EC 1.15.1.1) were detected in homogenates ofAscaris suum. Each of the three forms of SOD was purified by a sequence of multiple differential centrifugations, ammonium sulphate precipitation, ion-exchange chromatography and G-75 Sephadex column chromatography.

Small RNAs and extracellular vesicles in filarial nematodes: from nematode development to diagnostics [PDF]

, 2016
Parasitic nematodes have evolved sophisticated mechanisms to communicate with their hosts in order to survive and successfully establish an infection. The transfer of RNA within extracellular vesicles (EVs) has recently been described as a mechanism that

High anti-Ascaris seroprevalence in fattening pigs in Sichuan, China, calls for improved management strategies

Parasites & Vectors, 2020
Background Ascariasis, caused by Ascaris suum, is an important soil-transmitted parasitic disease of pigs worldwide. It leads to significant economic losses in the pork industry, as a consequence of low feed conversion efficiency in pigs and liver ...

Modulation of succinyl‐CoA:3‐ketoacid CoA transferase activity by a single amino acid residue in acetate:succinate CoA transferase from Trypanosoma brucei, the causative agent of African sleeping sickness

Protein Science, Volume 35, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract Trypanosomatids are protozoan parasites that remain a global health challenge due to the limited efficacy, safety, and durability of current treatments. Acetate: succinate CoA transferase (ASCT), together with succinyl‐CoA synthase (SCS), forms the ASCT/SCS cycle that fuels ATP production and generates acetate, a central metabolic intermediate
