Abstract:
Objective To study preliminar il y the mutual antigens between Lumbricus terrestris[WT5”BZ ] and Schistosoma japonicum. Methods The antigen s of Lumbricus terrestris (L.terrestris) and [ WT5”BX]Schistosoma japonicu m (S.japonicum) were analysed by SDS-PAGE technique, and reacte d with the sera of patients with schistosomiasis and the sera of rabbits immunized with LtAg by Dot-ELISA and Western-blot. Results [WT5” B Z]There were many similar molecular weight antigens between LtAg and SjAg. Spe cially some antigens between 30-90 kDa form LtAg had intensive cross reactio n with the sera of patients with schistosomiasis. SjAg was also reacted with the sera of r abbits immunized with LtAg. Conclusion There are at least three immunocompetent antigens with similar molecular weight between L.terrestris and S.japonicum. [
