چکیده انگلیسی
Over the years, the opinions of clinicians on the existence of the so-called chronic trichinellosis or late sequelae of infection have differed. However, the persistence of a humoral immune response against Trichinella in these late-stage patients has been confirmed using specific tests such as the competitive inhibition assay (CIA). We evaluated sera from late-stage trichinellosis patients (2-8 years from acute infection), for their reactivity against Trichinella spiralis antigens. The following tests were carried out: (i) indirect immunofluorescence assay (IFA), performed on muscle sections from mice, 30 days following synchronous infection by intramuscular injection with T. spiralis newborn larvae (NBL); (ii) enzyme immunoassay, employing a synthetic β-tyvelose antigen conjugated to bovine serum albumin (BSA-Ag); and (iii) western blot (WB) with both an “in house” kit and a commercial kit. The results of IFA obtained by confocal laser microscopy showed that sera reacted against both surface and internal structures of L1 larvae but at varying levels. Employing the synthetic antigen, EIA showed that 50% of sera tested were positive for the presence of specific antibodies against β-tyvelose. By WB, all sera were reactive with the 45 kDa glycoprotein (45 gp). These data suggest that reactivity against the β-tyvelosylated 45 gp persists even in very late stages of human trichinellosis.
