Research Abstract |
An immunosuppressive factor(ES90) from Spirometra erinaceieuropaei plerocercoids was cloned and the recombinant ES90 was synthesized using wheat germ cell free expression system. However, the recombinant ES90 did not inhibit nitric oxide production in macrophages. Messenger RNA of Ym1, FIZZ1, and arginase 1 were expressed in peritoneal macrophages from Trichinella spiralis-infected mice. In connection with this, 2 types of peroxiredoxin(Prx) from T. spiralis were cloned, Prx-1 mRNA expression was stage-specific
