Download or read book Production and Characterization of Plasmodium Falciparum specific Monoclonal Antibodies written by P. K. C. Lim and published by . This book was released on 1998 with total page 2 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Two monoclonal antibodies (Mabs), PF 2G4 and PF2G11 were produced by the hybridoma technique. Both Mabs were of the IgG1 subclass and were specific against soluble blood-stage antigens of Plasmodium falciparum in the ELISA. No cross reactions were observed with red blood cell antigens as well as solube antigens of other Plasmodium spp. like P. cynomolgi, p. inui. and berghei. Mab PF 2G4 recognized polypeptides of molecular weight 100 kilodaltons (kD) and a number of other polypeptides ranging from 38-50 kD in the immunoblot with P. falciparum antigens. Mab PF 2G11 also recognized a 100 kD polypeptide and 7 other polypeptides ranging from 38-45 kD. Both Mabs reacted with P. falciparum soluble antigens in the dot ELISA; the lowest concentration of antigen detected was 0.03 micrograms. [Authors' abstract].

Download or read book Evidence for Diversity of Plasmodium Falciparum Sporozoite Surface Antigens Derived from Analysis of Antibodies Elicited in Humans written by and published by . This book was released on 1990 with total page 8 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We have compared the reactivities of antibodies developed by individuals frequently exposed to Plasmodium falciparum infections with the epitopes contained within the repeats of the circumsporozoite (CS) protein and their reactivities with the epitopes of a native molecule(s) accessible on the sporozoite surface. Results of direct-binding assays and competition assays between artificial and native molecules or between human antibodies and anti-CS monoclonal antibodies suggest that humans respond preferentially to epitopes not contained within the repeats of the CS protein and probably not contained in the whole CS protein. Human monoclonal antibodies reactive with P. falciparum sporozoite surface antigens were produced by Epstein-Barr virus transformation of human lymphocytes. Their pattern of reactivity with sporozoites from a number of different isolates indicates the existence of several distinct epitopes on the parasite surface. Differences between isolates and between sporozoites within a given sample were observed. No single human monoclonal antibody capable of detecting an epitope expressed in all the parasites studied was found.

Download or read book Malaria written by Institute of Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 1991-02-01 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Malaria is making a dramatic comeback in the world. The disease is the foremost health challenge in Africa south of the Sahara, and people traveling to malarious areas are at increased risk of malaria-related sickness and death. This book examines the prospects for bringing malaria under control, with specific recommendations for U.S. policy, directions for research and program funding, and appropriate roles for federal and international agencies and the medical and public health communities. The volume reports on the current status of malaria research, prevention, and control efforts worldwide. The authors present study results and commentary on the: Nature, clinical manifestations, diagnosis, and epidemiology of malaria. Biology of the malaria parasite and its vector. Prospects for developing malaria vaccines and improved treatments. Economic, social, and behavioral factors in malaria control.
Download or read book Expression Systems written by Michael R. Dyson and published by Methods Express (Hardcover). This book was released on 2007 with total page 318 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Protein expression is an increasingly important tool for research on gene function. What is needed is not just a lab manual providing established methods as well as the latest state-of-the-art protocols, but also clear advice on what expression system to choose when. Expression Systems: Methods Expressuniquely fills this need. It covers expression across a broad range of systems, including the following. *Baculovirus expression vectors *CHO cells *E. coli *HEK293-EBNA1 cells *Lactococcus lactis and other gram positive bacteria *S. cerevisiae *transfected insect cells *Pichia pastoris *mammalian cells using BacMam viruses *lentiviral vectors *wheat germ cell-free system The book takes the reader through how to make an informed choice of appropriate system, taking into account the protein target, the time involved, the ultimate use of the expressed protein, and the laboratory equipment required. It also provides step-by-step methods for each system. In addition, the book describes the optimisation of expression strategies, expression engineering using ribosome display, and how to select protein variants with improved expression. Every chapter discusses the merits and limitations of the approaches available, describes the key techniques in full practical detail, and provides sensible advice for immediate use at the bench. In summary, Expression Systems: Methods Expressis a comprehensive laboratory manual and information resource for researchers at all levels, from postgraduate student to principal investigator.
Download or read book World Malaria Report 2015 written by World Health Organization and published by World Health Organization. This book was released on 2016-01-30 with total page 283 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The World Malaria Report 2015assesses global malaria disease trends and changes in the coverage and financing of malaria control programs between 2000 and 2015. It also summarizes progress towards international targets, and provides regional and country profiles that summarize trends in each WHO region and each country with malaria. The report is produced with the help of WHO regional and country offices, ministries of health in endemic countries, and a broad range of other partners. The data presented are assembled from the 96 countries and territories with ongoing malaria transmission, and a further five countries that have recently eliminated malaria. Most data are those reported for 2014 and 2015, although in some cases projections have been made into 2015, to assess progress towards targets for 2015.
