Expression in bacteria of the gene encoding the gp43 antigen of Paracoccidioides brasiliensis: Immunological reactivity of the recombinant fusion proteins [PDF]
gp43 is the major diagnostic antigen of Paracoccidioides brasiliensis, the agent of paracoccidioidomycosis IPCM) in humans. in the present study, cDNA of the gp43 gene (PbGP43) was obtained by reverse transcriptase PCR, inserted into a pGEX vector in ...

Paracoccidioides brasiliensis-gp43 used as paracoccidioidin
A purified glycoprotein of 43 000 daltons from Paracoccidioides brasiliensis (gp43) was tested as paracoccidiodin in delayed-type hypersensitivity (DTH) tests in both experimental animals (guinea pig and mice) and patients with paracoccidioidomycosis ...

Natural history of experimental arthritis induced by Paracoccidioides brasiliensis in wistar rats
INTRODUCTION: Paracoccidioidomycosis (PCM) is the most prevalent systemic mycosis in Latin America. This study aimed to evaluate the natural history of Paracoccidioides brasiliensis-induced experimental arthritis of the knee joints in Wistar rats ...

RNA interference of Pb18 GP43 gene expression triggered artificially with intron-containing dsRNA.
(A). GP43 gene expression levels were investigated in six cAlf-GP43 transformants in relation to cAlfG-control by qRT-PCR after 8 months of subculturing in non-selective media. Results were normalized against the internal control L34.

Recombinant vaccines of a CD4+ T-cell epitope promote efficient control of Paracoccidioides brasiliensis burden by restraining primary organ infection. [PDF]
Paracoccidioidomycosis (PCM) is an infectious disease endemic to South America, caused by the thermally dimorphic fungi Paracoccidioides. Currently, there is no effective human vaccine that can be used in prophylactic or therapeutic regimes.

Use of recombinant gp43 isoforms expressed in Pichia pastoris for diagnosis of paracoccidioidomycosis [PDF]
gp43 is the main diagnostic antigen for paracoccidioidomycosis (PCM). in vitro, gp43 expression in supernatant fluids of Paracoccidioides brasiliensis cultures can be unstable, and its regulation is poorly understood. We have been able to express soluble
