Disease relevance of Anisakis

 

High impact information on Anisakis

  • Alignment of these two genes revealed that the intron-exon junctions are conserved between nematode and rat suggesting that this Anisakis serine protease is structurally and functionally similar to rat trypsin [3].
  • Serine protease gene fragments were isolated from genomic DNA of the parasitic nematode Anisakis simplex by using degenerate oligonucleotide primers and the polymerase chain reaction [3].
  • Food-allergic-type reactions induced by oral challenge with Anisakis extract were absent in IL-4 receptor alpha knockout mice [4].
  • We have previously purified and cloned an apoptosis-inducing protein (AIP) derived from fish infected with the anisakis simplex [5].
  • Isolation and characterization of a major allergen from the fish parasite Anisakis simplex [6].
 

Biological context of Anisakis

  • In this study, we have investigated the effects of Anisakis simplex, an enhancer of Th2-dominant responses, on NO production [7].
  • Genetic variation at 21 gene-enzyme systems was studied in a sample of an adult population of Anisakis typica (Diesing, 1860) recovered in the dolphin Sotalia fluviatilis from the Atlantic coast of Brazil [8].
 

Associations of Anisakis with chemical compounds

  • Electrophoretic studies on the Anisakis simplex complex (Ascaridida:Anisakidae) from the Mediterranean and North-East Atlantic [9].
  • A marinating procedure is proposed that ensures the rapid death of Anisakis through the use of strong acetic acid concentrations [10].
  • N-Acetyltransferase activities with p-aminobenzoic acid and 2-aminofluorene were determined in Anisakis simplex, a nematode found in the intestine of the salt water fish Trichiurus lepturus [11].
  • Evidence for arylamine N-acetyltransferase in the nematode Anisakis simplex [11].
  • Anisakis, Phocanema, Contracaecum, and Sulcascaris spp.: electrophoresis and thermostability of alcohol and malate dehydrogenases from larvae [12].
 

Gene context of Anisakis

  • Sensitized wild-type, IL-4, or IL-4 receptor alpha-deficient mice were challenged orally with Anisakis extract [4].
  • Capture ELISA techniques were used to compare the reactivities with native or O-deglycosylated antigens of sera from Anisakis-free children (most of them infected by several other parasites) and from Anisakis allergy patients [13].
  • Presence of IL-4-like molecules in larval excretory-secretory products and crude extracts from Anisakis simplex [14].
  • Genetic relationships among Anisakis species (Nematoda: Anisakidae) inferred from mitochondrial cox2 sequences, and comparison with allozyme data [15].
  • A recombinant enolase from Anisakis simplex is differentially recognized in natural human and mouse experimental infections [16].
