Identification and Expression of a 50-Kilodalton Surface Antigen of Babesia gibsoni and Evaluation of Its Diagnostic Potential in an Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay

Fukumoto, Shinya, Xuan, Xuenan, Nishikawa, Yoshifumi, Inoue, Noboru, Igarashi, Ikuo, Nagasawa, Hideyuki, ...

A cDNA expression library prepared from Babesia gibsoni merozoite mRNA was screened with B. gibsoni-infected dog serum. cDNA encoding a 50-kDa protein was cloned and designated the P50 gene. The...

Characterization of Neospora caninum Surface Protein NcSRS2 Based on Baculovirus Expression System and Its Application for Serodiagnosis of Neospora Infection

Nishikawa, Yoshifumi, Kousaka, Yuko, Tragoolpua, Khajornsak, Xuan, Xuenan, Makala, Levi, Fujisaki, Kozo, ...

The baculovirus expression system has proved to be a useful tool for the production of recombinant proteins. Here we have characterized the Neospora caninum surface protein NcSRS2 produced by two...

In the Absence of Endogenous Gamma Interferon, Mice Acutely Infected with Neospora caninum Succumb to a Lethal Immune Response Characterized by Inactivation of Peritoneal Macrophages

Nishikawa, Yoshifumi, Tragoolpua, Khajornsak, Inoue, Noboru, Makala, Levi, Nagasawa, Hideyuki, Otsuka, Haruki, ...

Following infection with Neospora caninum, BALB/c mice were shown to be resistant to an acute infection but developed a latent chronic infection. However, BALB/c background gamma interferon...

Identification of a Specific Antigenic Region of the P82 Protein of Babesia equi and Its Potential Use in Serodiagnosis

Hirata, Haruyuki, Xuan, Xuenan, Yokoyama, Naoaki, Nishikawa, Yoshifumi, Fujisaki, Kozo, Suzuki, Naoyoshi, ...

The efficacy of the Be82 gene product fused with glutathione S-transferase (GST/Be82) in an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for the diagnosis of Babesia equi infection was reported...

Dense-Granule Protein NcGRA7, a New Marker for the Serodiagnosis of Neospora caninum Infection in Aborting Cows▿

Huang, Penglong, Liao, Min, Zhang, Houshuang, Lee, Eung-goo, Nishikawa, Yoshifumi, Xuan, Xuenan

To investigate whether the production of an antigen-specific antibody is associated with Neospora caninum-induced bovine abortion, 62 serum samples were tested with an enzyme-linked immunosorbent...
