Infinity war: Trichomonas vaginalis and interactions with host immune response

Abstract: Trichomonas vaginalis is the pathological agent of human trichomoniasis. The incidence is 156 million cases worldwide. Due to the increasing resistance of isolates to approved drugs and clinical complications that include increased risk in the acquisition and transmission of HIV, cervical and prostate cancer, and adverse outcomes during pregnancy, increasing our understanding of the pathogen’s interaction with the host immune response is essential. Production of cytokines and cells of innate immunity: Neutroph… Show more

“…Die häufige Asymptomatik beruht einerseits darauf, dass die unspezifische Infektabwehr ("innate immunity") eine manifeste Erkrankung verhindern kann. Die größte Rolle spielen dabei die Granulozyten [6,7]. Da diese Mikrophagen viel zu klein sind, die großen Protozoen komplett zu phagozytieren, "knabbern" sie die Parasiten nur an, was als Trogozytose bezeichnet wird, und töten sie so ab.…”

“…Andererseits hängt eine manifeste Infektion von der Virulenz der Erreger ab [7]. Pathogene Trichomonaden sind fähig, an bestimmte Rezeptoren der oberflächlichen, extrazellulären Matrix des Vaginalepithels, nämlich Galaktine bzw.…”
