Evidence that immunization with TP0751, a bipartite Treponema pallidum lipoprotein with an intrinsically disordered region and lipocalin fold, fails to protect in the rabbit model of experimental syphilis

Only registered users can translate articles

Deconvolution of syphilis pathogenesis and selection of candidate syphilis vaccinogens requires detailed knowledge of the molecular architecture of the Treponema pallidum outer membrane (OM). The T. pallidum OM contains a low density of integral OM proteins, while the spirochete's many lipoprotein

Multidrug-resistant HIV viral rebound during early syphilis: a case report.

Only registered users can translate articles

Syphilis has been associated with an increase in HIV RNA and a temporary decline in CD4 T cell counts in people living with HIV who are not receiving antiretroviral treatment (ART), and may be associated with a transient HIV RNA rebound in those who are receiving ART. Our case is the

Immunization of rabbits with recombinant Treponema pallidum surface antigen 4D alters the course of experimental syphilis.

Only registered users can translate articles

Rabbits immunized with the protease resistant recombinant Treponema pallidum surface-associated Ag 4D showed an altered course of experimental syphilis after intradermal challenge with virulent T. pallidum. Vaccination trials using three different protocols were examined. In one experiment, a

Prevalence of HIV-1 non-B subtypes, syphilis, HTLV, and hepatitis B and C viruses among immigrant sex workers in Madrid, Spain.

Only registered users can translate articles

Sexually transmitted disease (STD) remains a major public health challenge in developed countries, exacerbated by the advent of the HIV epidemic. The objectives of this study were to assess the prevalence of serological markers of syphilis, HIV-1/2, HTLV-I/II, HBV, and HCV infections among immigrant

Immunochip for Syphilis Serodiagnostics with the Use of Extended Array of Treponema pallidum Recombinant Antigens.

Only registered users can translate articles

An immunochip for multiple parallel detection of specific serum IgG in serological screening for syphilis is based on the use of an extended array of Treponema pallidum recombinant proteins and includes traditionally used immunodominant antigens (Tp15, Tp17, Tp47, and TmpA) and new synthetic

Serospecificity of a cloned protease-resistant Treponema pallidum--specific antigen expressed in Escherichia coli.

Only registered users can translate articles

We evaluated the serological reactivity of a protease-resistant antigen designated 4D which was encoded by Treponema pallidum DNA and was expressed in Escherichia coli from recombinant plasmid pAW329. This 19,000-molecular-weight antigen was purified in its native, non-protease-treated form from E.

Trichomonas vaginalis among HIV-Infected women: are immune status or protease inhibitor use associated with subsequent T. vaginalis positivity?

Only registered users can translate articles

OBJECTIVE Trichomonas vaginalis (Tv) is a common sexually transmitted disease (STD) among HIV-infected populations. The relationship between Tv and immune status and HIV viral load as affected by protease inhibitor (PI) use has not been well examined. OBJECTIVE The goals were to evaluate the

Purification and characterization of a cloned protease-resistant Treponema pallidum-specific antigen.

Only registered users can translate articles

A cloned Treponema pallidum antigen, designated 4D, was purified from Escherichia coli predominantly as a 190-kilodalton (kd) polypeptide, although higher oligomeric forms exist. Extensive proteolysis of 4D created a limit digestion product of 90 kd which retained antigenicity with sera from

Clinical, epidemiological and treatment failure data among HIV-1 non-B-infected patients in the Spanish AIDS Research Network Cohort.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND The prevalence of HIV-1 non-B variants is increasing in Spain, showing a higher number of transmitted drug resistance mutations (TDR) since 2002. This study presents the features of non-B-infected patients enrolled in the cohort of antiretroviral treatment (ART) naïve HIV-infected

Surveillance of transmitted HIV drug resistance among women attending antenatal clinics in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND In resource-limited settings where antiretroviral treatment (ART) access is being scaled-up, the World Health Organization (WHO) recommends surveillance of transmitted HIV drug resistance (HIVDR). We used the WHO HIVDR threshold survey method to assess transmitted HIVDR in Dar es Salaam

New recommendations for prophylaxis after HIV exposure.

Only registered users can translate articles

Early prophylaxis after exposure to human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) can reduce the risk of HIV infection 10-fold and should be recommended or offered after all parenteral exposures. The current recommendations from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention call for the use of two nucleoside

Relationship between HIV-RNA load in blood and semen in antiretroviral-naïve and experienced men and effect of asymptomatic sexually transmissible infections.

Only registered users can translate articles

We assessed the correlation between HIV-RNA viral load in blood (BPVL) and seminal plasma (SPVL) in a cross-sectional cohort of 119 asymptomatic, antiretroviral-naive and experienced HIV-1 subjects (BPVL < 50 copies/mL for minimum 12 months and stable on one drug regimen). The cohort was divided

Mapping the major antigenic domains of the native flagellar antigen of Borrelia burgdorferi.

Only registered users can translate articles

Purified flagellar protein (p41) of Borrelia burgdorferi (strain B31) was subjected to chemical cleavage with hydroxylamine or proteolysis with V8 protease, endoproteinase Asp-N, or alpha-chymotrypsin. The resulting polypeptides were identified by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel

Sarcoidosis-related anterior uveitis in a patient with human immunodeficiency virus.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND This is the first ophthalmic report--to our knowledge--of an anterior uveitis secondary to sarcoidosis in a patient infected with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). Other reported causes of uveitis in HIV-infected patients have included HIV, herpes zoster, tuberculosis, syphilis,

The Treponema pallidum Outer Membrane.

Only registered users can translate articles

The outer membrane (OM) of Treponema pallidum, the uncultivatable agent of venereal syphilis, has long been the subject of misconceptions and controversy. Decades ago, researchers postulated that T. pallidum's poor surface antigenicity is the basis for its ability to cause persistent infection, but
