To obtain quantitative data on the human serological response to Toxoplasma gondii tachyzoite and bradyzoite antigens.
Serum samples from 30 patients who had positive antibody titres against T gondii and from 14 who were seronegative, together with sequential serum samples from four infected individuals, were screened by FAST-ELISA.
Serum samples from the 30 seropositive patients showed high IgG and IgM titres against the T gondii tachyzoite antigen but very low responses to cyst antigen. This result was borne out in sequential serum samples from patients with toxoplasmosis.
Antibody recognition of the cystic stage of T gondii is low, implying that either this stage is poorly immunogenic or that the antigen load is low.
获取人类对刚地弓形虫速殖子和缓殖子抗原血清学反应的定量数据。
采用快速酶联免疫吸附测定法(FAST-ELISA)对30例抗弓形虫抗体滴度呈阳性的患者以及14例血清学阴性患者的血清样本,连同4例感染个体的系列血清样本进行检测。
30例血清学阳性患者的血清样本显示,其针对弓形虫速殖子抗原的IgG和IgM滴度较高,但对包囊抗原的反应极低。弓形虫病患者的系列血清样本也证实了这一结果。
对弓形虫包囊期的抗体识别率较低,这意味着该阶段免疫原性较差或抗原负荷较低。
