Abstract

In this study, somatic and secretional proteins of adult and microfilariae of Dirofilaria immitis were separated with SDS-PAGE. Which separated proteins include specific antigens to the disease was determined with immunblotting technique. Antigenic glycoproteins were determined with glycan kits. According to the immunblotting results which were obtained by somatic and excretory/secretory (E/S) antigens of adult form of parasite it has determined that: 69, 20, 18, 16, 14, 12 kDa proteins are commonly specific, in adults (somatic antigen); 20, 18,16 kDa proteins, adult E/S products; 18 and 16 kDa proteins are glycoproteins. According to the immunblotting results which were obtained by somatic and E/S antigens of microfilariae it has determined that 16, 14 and 12 kDa proteins are commonly specific, in microfilariae and E/S products of microfilariae 14 and 16 kDa proteins are glycoproteins. In all forms of parasite generally mannose, sialic acid and galactose were seen except small differences in sugar ingredients of specific antigens. Determining antigenic structured glycoproteins of parasites will provide clarify of relation between host parasite and also will provide contribution to the vaccine studies

Abstract

Bu çalışmada, Dirofilaria immitis’in ergin ve mikrofilerlerinin somatik ve E/S proteinleri SDS-PAGE ile ayrıştırıldı. Ayrıştırılan proteinlerden hangilerinin hastalığa spesifik antijenler içerdiği immunblotting yöntemiyle belirlendi. Antijenik glikoproteinler ise glikan kitleriyle belirlendi. Parazitin ergin formunun somatik ve E/S antijenleri ile yapılan immunblotting sonucunda; 69, 20, 18, 16, 14, 12 kDa’luk proteinlerin ortak şekilde spesifik olduğu, erginlerde (somatik antijen); 20, 18, 16 kDa’luk proteinlerin, ergin salgısal ürünlerinde (E/S antijen); 18 ve 16 kDa’luk proteinlerin glikoprotein olduğu belirlendi. Mikrofilerlerinin somatik ve salgısal antijenleri ile yapılan immunblotting sonucunda; 16, 14 ve 12 kDa'luk proteinlerin ortak şekilde spesifik olduğu, bunlardan mikrofilerlerde ve mikrofilerlerin salgısal ürünlerinde 14 ve 16 kDa’luk proteinlerin glikoprotein olduğu belirlendi. Parazitin bütün formlarında, spesifik antijenlerin şeker içeriklerindeki çok küçük farklılıklar dışında genel olarak mannoz, siyalik asit ve galaktoz bulunduğu tespit edildi. Parazitlerin antijenik yapıdaki glikoproteinlerinin belirlenmesi, konak-parazit arasındaki ilişkilerin aydınlatılmasına ve yapılacak olan aşı çalışmalarına katkı sağlayacaktır
