Gnathostoma spinigerum is a causative agent of human gnathostomiasis, a common parasitic disease involving skin and visceral organs, especially the central nervous system. In this study, we identified a cDNA encoding a cathepsin L-like cysteine protease (GsCL1) from the lambdaZAP cDNA library of G. spinigerum advanced third-stage larva (aL3) and characterized the biochemical properties of the recombinant enzyme. The cloned cDNA of 1484bp encoded 398 amino acids which contained a typical signal peptide sequence (23 amino acids), a pro-domain (156 amino acids), and a mature domain (219 amino acids) with an approximate molecular weight of 24kDa. The deduced amino acid sequence of GsCL1 gene showed 53-64% identity to cathepsin L proteases of various organisms including a cathepsin L family member (cpl-1) of Caenorhabditis elegans. Recombinant proGsCL1 expressed in Pichia pastoris showed typical biochemical characteristics of cysteine proteases. The expressed enzyme displayed optimal protease activity toward Z-Phe-Arg-AMC substrate at pH 6.0 but not toward Z-Arg-Arg-AMC. The activity was sensitive to cysteine protease inhibitors E-64 and K11777. The preference for large hydrophilic and aromatic residues in the P2 position (I, L, F, W, U, V) was typical of cathepsin L proteases. Mouse anti-GST-proGsCL1 serum showed reactivity with 35-, 38- and 45-kDa proteins in the aL3 extracts. These proteins were shown to localize inside the intestinal cells of aL3. 相似文献

A 28-year-old lady presented with recurrent erythematous skin lesions in different parts of the body for 3 months. There were several episodes of worm coming out of the lesions. Examination of the worms in the parasitology laboratory revealed it to be a larva of Gnathostoma sp. She was advised treatment with Albendazole for 21 days, and there was no recurrence of lesions. 相似文献

猪颚口线虫病的临床症状是病猪经常呕吐、食欲减退、消瘦和体重减轻,早期血检嗜酸性细胞增高。本病的主要致病器官是胃和肝脏。胃的主要病变是胃底布满虫洞、粘膜增厚、发炎和溃疡。肝的病变是结缔组织增生、虫道出血、肝细胞索紊乱、肝细胞脂肪变性、萎缩和坏死。文中讨论了幼虫在体内的移行途径和本病的防治问题。 相似文献

Infection with Gnathostoma spinigerum has been generally confined to Southeast Asia and Central and South America. However, gnathostomiasis was recently found in British tourists who had visited Botswana. Consequently, travel to Africa should now be considered a risk factor for gnathostomiasis. 相似文献

The in vitro antiplasmodial activities of 14 plant species traditionally used in Central America for the treatment of malaria or fever were evaluated. Lipophilic extracts of Piper hispidum, Siparuna andina, S. pauciflora, S. tonduziana, and Xylopia cf. frutescens, proved to be active against both a chloroquine-sensitive and a resistant strain of Plasmodium falciparum. IC50 values ranged between 3.0 microg/ml and 21.9 microg/ml; however, moderate cytotoxicity of active extracts was observed. Bioactivity-guided fractionation of Piper hispidum yielded 2',4, 6'-trihydroxy-4'-methoxydihydrochalcone (asebogenin) as an active compound. 相似文献

广东五华县棘颚口线虫的流行病学调查 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
目的 了解广东省五华县棘颚口线虫的流行情况。方法 从当地采集剑水蚤,经固定、沉淀分离、封片后,于显微镜下观察。从五华县县城菜市场购买鲩鱼、泥鳅、鳝鱼,其肌肉和肝脏经人工胃液消化后镜检。采用直接涂片法和饱和盐水浮聚法两种方法对从五华县转水镇采集的猫狗粪便进行检查。结果 剑水蚤棘颚口线虫第二期幼虫的感染率为1.6%;从34个鳝鱼肝脏样本中发现棘颚口线虫第3期幼虫2条;用饱和盐水浮聚法检查猫粪50份,2份找到棘颚口线虫卵。结论 五华县具备棘颚口线虫流行的基本条件。 相似文献

Gnathostomiasis has rarely been described outside endemic countries. We report on a series of 5 patients (4 females, 1 male, mean age 42.2 years) who returned to France from South-East Asia and presented with cutaneous gnathostomiasis. The cutaneous lesions appeared within a mean period of 62 d (range 10-150 d) after return. They consisted of creeping eruptions in 3 patients (in addition one also had papules, one had nodules and hepatitis, and one had hepatitis; all 3 had profound asthenia) and recurring migratory swellings in 2 patients. The mean eosinophil count was 1546/mm3 (range 398-3245/mm3). Diagnosis was based on positive serological tests in 3 patients and seroconversion in 2 patients, and was confirmed by identification of Gnathostoma hispidum in a biopsy specimen from one of the seropositive patients. Albandazole (1-4 courses) was given as treatment. Recurrences may occur up to 24 months after apparent cure without reinfection. Gnathostomiasis should be considered when patients return from tropical countries and present with migratory swellings or creeping eruption that does not respond to the usual treatment for cutaneous larva migrans. Serological tests may be negative initially and thus need to be repeated to check for seroconversion. Treatment may require multiple courses of albendazole and a prolonged period of follow-up is necessary before cure can be confirmed. 相似文献

Ocular involvement with Gnathostoma spinigerum occurs years after the initial infection that is acquired by ingestion of poorly cooked, pickled seafood or water contaminated with third stage larvae. Here we report a case of gnathostomiasis of the left eye of a 32-year-old lady hailing from Meghalaya, India. Her vision had deteriorated to hand movement. Slit lamp examination revealed a live, actively motile worm in the anterior chamber, which was extracted by supra temporal limbal incision and visual acuity was restored. 相似文献
