Excretory/secretory antigens (ES) from in-vitro cultures of Taenia crassiceps cysticerci, and use of an anti-ES monoclonal antibody for antigen detection in samples of cerebrospinal fluid from patients with neurocysticercosis
Abstract Antigens were obtained from cysticerci of the ORF strain of Taenia crassiceps, by culture of cysts in protein-free hybridoma medium (PFHM). Budding of new vesicles was observed after 24-48h. Excretory/secretory (ES) antigens (peptides of <20kDa) were recovered in the medium after culture for 48h. SDS-PAGE analysis of vesicular-fluid (VF) antigens (obtained by rupturing T. crassiceps cysticerci in PFHM) and the ES antigens indicated partial homology between the two preparations. ES peptides of 18- and 14-kDa were recognized by polyclonal antibodies produced in rabbits immunized either with the VF antigens or with a total-antigen preparation of T. solium cysticerci. Antibodies present in samples of serum or cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) from patients with neurocysticercosis also reacted with ES peptides. An anti-ES monoclonal antibody detected antigens in the CSF from 10 patients with neurocysticercosis, showing the antigenic homology of the ES antigens with those of T. solium cysticerci in human infections.
