A FPLC purified 38kDa protease (Bm mf S-7) isolated from B. malayi microfilarial soluble antigen was identified. It showed pronounced reactivity with sera collected from 'putatively immune' asymptomatic and amicrofilaraemic individuals residing in an endemic area for bancroftian filariasis. Further

A protease isolated from adult Setaria digitata revealed a single, 110-kDa band in a gelatin-impregnated, substrate gel. Analysis with specific inhibitors indicated it to be a metallo-protease. IgG from chronic filarial patients living in an area of Orissa, India, endemic for Wuchereria bancrofti

Many of the filarial proteases involved in critical physiological functions are expressed in stage-specific manner and belong to various mechanistic classes. Setaria cervi, a bovine filarial parasite express different classes of proteases. This parasite shows strong antigenic cross-reactivity with

Lymphatic filariasis caused mainly by infection fromW. bancrofti andB. malayi remains a major cause of clinical morbidity in tropical and subtropical countries. Analysis ofB. malayi mf, infective larval and adult worm lysates for the activity of enzymes led to the demonstration of activities of

Physicochemical characterization of an aspin (rBm-33) from a filarial parasite Brugia malayi against the important human aspartic proteases.

The aspartic protease inhibitory efficiency of rBm-33, an aspin from a filarial parasite Brugia malayi was investigated. rBm-33 was found to be thermostable up to 90°C and it forms a stable 'enzyme-product' complex with human pepsin. Aspartic protease inhibitory activity was investigated using UV

Antibodies to microfilarial sheath in bancroftian filariasis--prevalence and characterization.

Antibodies directed towards the sheaths of microfilariae have been implicated in the elimination of circulating microfilariae, both in experimental and human filariasis. In the present study antisheath antibodies have been detected in human sera by indirect immunoperoxidase assay (IPA) using fixed

BACKGROUND Periplasmic serine proteases of HtrA type of Wolbachia have been shown to play a role in the pathogenesis of filarial disease. OBJECTIVE This study was aimed to sequence Wb-HtrA serine protease and analyze its phylogenetic position by comparing with other filarial and non-filarial

During chronic filariasis, parasite-specific cellular responsiveness is profoundly down-regulated. Cystatins, a group of cysteine protease inhibitors, have been implicated in this suppressive activity. In an attempt to investigate the effects of cystatins in vivo, we isolated and expressed a 14 kDa

Filarial nematodes are a cause of chronic debilitating diseases in the tropics. A hallmark of filariasis is the marked down-regulation and polarization of host immune responses, yet molecular constituents of parasites causing this state have remained undefined. We describe a 17-kDa antigen (Av17) of

Potential involvement of Brugia malayi cysteine proteases in the maintenance of the endosymbiotic relationship with Wolbachia.

Brugia malayi, a parasitic nematode that causes lymphatic filariasis, harbors endosymbiotic intracellular bacteria, Wolbachia, that are required for the development and reproduction of the worm. The essential nature of this endosymbiosis led to the development of anti-Wolbachia chemotherapeutic

Brugia malayi microfilarial excretory-secretory (mf ES) antigens obtained byin vitro maintenance of mf are important tools in the immunodiagnosis of bancroftian filariasis. To increase the yield of mf ES products, the effect of nutritional supplements on the culture medium (RPMI 1640) and the

Horseflies are economically important blood-feeding arthropods and also a nuisance for humans and vectors for filariasis. They rely heavily on the pharmacological properties of their saliva to get a blood meal and suppress immune reactions of hosts. Little information is available on antihemostatic

A zinc containing metalloprotease, 175 kDa collagenase, purified from adult female Setaria cervi showed strong cross-reactivity with sera from putatively immune (PI) individuals (unpublished observation) and induced cytotoxicity to B. malayi L3 larvae and microfilariae by ADCC mechanism [Srivastava

BACKGROUND Like other helminth proteases, filarial proteases have also been shown to require for parasite survival inside the host and mediate various physiologic processes such as tissue invasion, feeding, embryogenesis and host immune evasion. Many of these proteases have shown potential for

Diethylcarbamazine (DEC) is the main drug used against lymphatic filariasis but it is only microfilaricidal. Hence there is an urgent need for adulticidal drug. Aspirin is known nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs which can inhibit prostaglandin H synthase and also induces apoptosis. Studies
