Identification and characterization of a putative agglutination/immobilization antigen on the surface ofCryptocaryon irritans

Abstract: The ciliated protozoan Cryptocaryon irritans, a parasite of seawater fishes, was found to express an antigen that elicits antibodies in rabbits and tiger puffer (Takifugu ruburipes). Serum from rabbits and fish immunized with theronts had agglutination/immobilization activity against theronts in vitro; fish serum antibody levels (measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays: ELISA) correlated with this activity. Anti-theront antibody levels in fish were significantly higher in the immunized group as compared… Show more

“…The immobilization titres were significantly boosted after the secondary exposure in all groups. These results suggest that levels of i-antigen specific antibody were significantly increased following the secondary exposure because the i-antigen specific antibody interferes with movement of cilia and causes immobilization of C. irritans (Hatanaka et al 2007). …”

“…Antigen-i ditemui hadir pada silia C. irritans pada peringkat kitar hidup trofon dan teron. Antibodi yang dihasilkan terhadap antigen ini didapati memberi perlindungan kepada perumah semasa jangkitan parasit tersebut serta menyebabkan aglutinasi dan immobilasi silia parasit dalam asai aglutinasi (Bai et al 2008;Hatanaka et al 2007).…”

“…Penanda molekul yang dikenal pasti boleh digunakan untuk menyaring stok ikan yang baru sebelum ianya dimasukkan ke dalam sangkar laut atau menentukan kemungkinan kehadiran parasit tersebut dalam sistem marikultur secara berkala. Kajian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisa pelbagai antigen-i yang pernah dilaporkan (Hatanaka et al 2008(Hatanaka et al , 2007Josepriya et al 2012 (Thompson et al 1997). Kaedah maximum parsimony (MP) dilakukan menggunakan perisian PHYLIP (Felsenstein 1989) melalui satu siri analisis yang berturutan menggunakan PROTPARS dan CONSENSE diikuti dengan penjanaan pohon-pohon MP menggunakan MEGA4 (Tamura et al 2007).…”
