  • Title: Immunoblot findings of calcareous corpuscles binding proteins in cyst fluid of Taenia solium metacestodes.
    Author: Yang HJ.
    Journal: Korean J Parasitol; 2004 Sep; 42(3):141-3. PubMed ID: 15381863.
    Abstract:
    After collecting calcareous corpuscles from plerocercoid of Spirometra mansoni (sparganum), we evaluated the antigenic values of calcareous corpuscles binding proteins obtained from the cyst fluid of Taenia solium metacestodes. Immunoblot analysis revealed that cysticercosis patient sera strongly recognized 10 and 95 kDa calcareous corpuscles binding proteins. This result demonstrated that calcareous corpuscles are bound with major secretory antigenic proteins, which is possibly involved in the secretory pathways of the 10 and 95 kDa proteins presenting in the cyst fluid of T. solium metacestodes.
