The Crithidia luciliae immunofluorescence test (CLIFT) is widely used in clinical laboratories for anti-double stranded DNA (anti-dsDNA) detection. It has comparable sensitivity and specificity to the standard method, Farr assay, but employs simpler and ...

Nuclear and kinetoplastic DNA replication cycles in normal and synchronously dividing Crithidia luciliae [PDF]
Quantitative radioautography has been used to measure the incorporation of 3H-thymidine into nuclear and kinetoplastic DNA of Crithidia luciliae. Our results, obtained on randomly dividing cells as well as on cultures synchronized with hydroxyurea, show ...

The cell coat ofCrithidia fasciculata
SummaryA prominent filamentous and granular cell coat is associated with the plasma membraneof haptomonads ofCrithidia fasciculataattached to the cuticular lining of the hindgut ofAnopheles gambiae. This surface material is completely absent from morphologically identical haptomonads from the mosquito foregut and from rosettes in culture.

A Crithidia luciliae indirekt immunfluoreszcens teszt helye az antinukleáris antitest kivizsgálási algoritmusban [PDF]
A duplaszálú DNS elleni antitest az SLE legfontosabb diagnosztikai markere. Antinukleáris antitestként HEp-2 indirekt immunfluoreszcens teszttel is kimutatható, de megerősítő tesztek közül leggyakrabban ELISA-val határozzák meg az orvosi laboratóriumok ...

Interactions between the bumblebee, Bombus terrestris, and its trypanosome parasite, Crithidia bombi [PDF]
Theory predicts that hosts should evolve highly specific immune defences when there are significant fitness costs associated with parasitic infection.

Flagellar regeneration of the trypanosome Crithidia fasciculata involves post-translational modification of cytoplasmic alpha tubulin. [PDF]
Deflagellation of Crithidia fasciculata stimulated formation of new flagella and maximized production of alpha 3 tubulin. Continuous labeling during reflagellation revealed that alpha 1, 2, and 3 tubulins were formed, whereas the polyadenylated RNA ...

Future trypanosomatid phylogenies: refined homologies, supertrees and networks
There has been good progress in inferring the evolutionary relationships within trypanosomes from DNA data as until relatively recently, many relationships have remained rather speculative.
