Background: Onchocerciasis, a neglected tropical disease (NTD) caused by Onchocerca volvulus, is hyperendemic in many parts of Africa, including South Sudan. Pregnant women may be a parasite reservoir as they are not incl...
Development of Onchocerca volvulus in humanized NSG mice and detection of parasite biomarkers in urine and serum [0.03%]
人源化NSG小鼠中的旋毛纲卷曲丝虫病的发病过程及其尿液和血清寄生虫生物标志物的检测

John B Patton et al.
Background: The study of Onchocerca volvulus has been limited by its host range, with only humans and non-human primates shown to be susceptible to the full life cycle infection. Small animal models that support the devel...
Comparative analysis of macrophage migration inhibitory factors (MIFs) from the parasitic nematode Onchocerca volvulus and the free-living nematode Caenorhabditis elegans [0.03%]

Eukaryotic transcription factors can be identified and classified according to conserved DNA-binding motifs and conserved regulatory domains. The functional and structural analysis, and the conservation of these genes among metazoans emphas...
Onchocerca volvulus: monoclonal antibodies to immune complex-associated parasite antigens [0.03%]
盘尾丝虫（免疫复合物有关的寄生虫抗原的单克隆抗体）
R Chandrashekar,A F Ogunrinade,R W Henry et al.
R Chandrashekar et al.
Improved methods for diagnosis of onchocerciasis are needed. We have recently identified immune complex-associated parasite antigens in sera from onchocerciasis patients. The goal of this study was to produce monoclonal antibodies to these ...
Seasonal variation in the concentration of Onchocerca volvulus microfilariae in the skin? [0.03%]
皮肤中盘尾丝虫微丝蚴密度的季节性变化？
H Fuglsang,J Anderson,T F de C Marshall et al.
H Fuglsang et al.
Repeated multiple skin snips in 18 persons with onchocerciasis from the Sudan-savanna of West Africa suggested the possibility of a seasonal variation in microfilarial concentrations. This variation may be an evolutionary adaptation of the ...
