https://www.selleckchem.com/products/AC-220.html The critical step of Trichinella spiralis infection is that the muscle larvae (ML) are activated to intestinal infective larvae (IIL) which invade the intestinal columnar epithelium to further develop. The IIL excretory/secretory (ES) proteins play an important role in host-parasite interaction. Proteolytic enzymes are able to mediate the tissue invasion, thereby increasing the susceptibility of parasites to their hosts. The aim of the current study was to screen and identify the natural active proteases in T. spiralis IIL ES proteins using Western blot and gel zymography combined with liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). The T. spiralis ML and IIL ES proteins were collected from the in vitro cultures and their enzymatic acitvities were examined by gelatin zymography and azocasein degradation. The protease activities were partially inhibited by PMSF, E-64 and EDTA. Three protein bands (45, 118 and 165 kDa) of T. spiralis IIL ES proteins were identified by shotgun LC-MS/MS because they have hydrolytic activity to gelatin compared to the ML ES proteins. Total of 30 T. spiralis proteins were identified and they are mainly serine proteinases (19), but also metalloproteinases (7) and cysteine proteinases (3). The qPCR results indicated that transcription levels of four T. spiralis protease genes (two serine proteases, a cathepsin B-like cysteine proteinase and a zinc metalloproteinase) at IIL stage were obviously higher than at the ML stage. These proteolytic enzymes are directly exposed to the host intestinal milieu and they may mediate the worm invasion of enteral epithelium and escaping from the host's immune responses. The results provide the new insights into understanding of the interaction of T. spiralis with host and the invasion mechanism.This study was conducted to determine the occurrence of E. multilocularis in foxes and environmental fecal contamination by E. multilocularis in Erzurum, th
