Localization of Phenol Oxidase in Female Trichuris suis
The Journal of Parasitology, 1994A phenol oxidase (E.C. 1.10.3.1) preparation from adult female Trichuris suis was assayed by both polarographic and spectrophotometric techniques. The T. suis enzyme oxidized most diphenols including 4-methylcatechol (4MC) and dihydroxyphenylalanine but did not oxidize tyrosine. The pH and temperature optima were 6.8 and 36 C, respectively.

Treatment of Trichuris suis infections in pigs with flubendazole
Veterinary Record, 1982A severe outbreak of Trichuris suis infection in piglets is described. Fifteen per cent of the animals died and the morbidity, characterised by weight loss and diarrhoea, was over 50 per cent. The severity of symptoms observed in naturally infected pigs was related to the number of whipworms.

Trichuris suis secrete products that reduce disease severity in a multiple sclerosis model
Acta Parasitologica, 2017 Multiple sclerosis is a chronic inflammatory central nervous system (CNS) disease, which affects about 1 in 1000 individuals in the western world. It has been suggested that this relatively high prevalence is linked to a high level of hygiene, i.e.

Allergy: European Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology, 2014 BACKGROUND: Gastrointestinal nematodes are currently being evaluated as a novel therapeutic in the treatment of chronic human inflammatory disorders, due to their unique ability to induce immunoregulatory pathways in their hosts.

Morphologic, biometric, and isoenzyme characterization of Trichuris suis
Parasitology Research, 1998Trichuris suis isolates were collected from the cecum of Sus scrofa domestica (pig) and S. s. scrofa (wild boar). Morphology and biometry studies were carried out. Morphology studies showed the existence of typical caudal papillae in males of T. suis from wild boars, but no other difference was observed in the biometric parameters (total length ...

A Trichuris specific diagnostic antigen from culture fluids of Trichuris suis adult worms
Veterinary Parasitology, 1997Trichuris suis is a nematode parasite of swine which can cause serious pathology in infected pigs, such as anorexia, diarrhea, anemia, and death in heavy infections, especially in young animals. Infection with Trichuris suis is difficult to diagnose because much of the pathology occurs when only larval stages are present, and because of sporadic egg ...

The Occurrence of Phenol Oxidase Activity in Female Trichuris suis
The Journal of Parasitology, 1993The body of Trichuris suis females maintained in vitro under a gas phase of 95% air 5% CO2 develops a brown pigment that is apparent after 1 day and intensifies with time. Development of the brown pigment is prevented by maintaining the parasites in an anaerobic gas phase (95% N2, 5% CO2), but tanning commences when worms are returned to aerobic ...

Structure and Chemistry of the Egg-Shell of a Nematode (Trichuris Suis)
Tissue and Cell, 1978ABSTRACT The egg-shell of Trichuris suis consists of three layers: an outer vitelline layer, a middle chitinous layer and an inner lipid layer. This nomenclature is based upon previous studies on nematode eggs; the histochemistry of the shell layers and the appearance of the vitelline layer.

Trichuris suis and T. muris: Elemental analysis of intestinal inclusions
Experimental Parasitology, 1977Abstract The intestinal cells of the trichuroid nematodes Trichuris suis and T. muris contain numerous dense spherical inclusions which range in diameter from 0.25 to 0.8 μn. They possess a concentric, lamellar arrangement similar to that described for the calcareous corpuscles of trematodes and cestodes.

Trichuris suis: A Secretory Chymotrypsin/Elastase Inhibitor with Potential as an Immunomodulator
Experimental Parasitology, 2000A serine protease inhibitor, termed TsCEI, was purified from adult-stage Trichuris suis by acid precipitation, affinity chromatography (elastase-agarose), and reverse-phase HPLC. The molecular weight of TsCEI was estimated at 6.437 kDa by laser desorption mass spectrometry.
