- The results demonstrate that binding of rTsCTL to SDC-1 on Caco-2 cells activated the STAT3 pathway, decreased gut tight junction expression, damaged the integrity of the gut epithelial barrier, and mediated T. spiralis invasion of the gut mucosa. (bvsalud.org)
- The digestive system begins with the mouth opening, which leads to the mouth capsule, on its ventral side there is a stylet with which the parasite is attached to the intestinal mucosa of the host. (stop-seizures-meds.com)
- Therefore, this study mainly explored whether Trichinella spiralis Kazal-type serine protease inhibitor (TsKaSPI) contributed to the invasion of intestinal epithelial cells during the infectious stage of T. spiralis by regulating ERS. (biomedcentral.com)
- The results showed that TsKaSPI could induce apoptosis in a porcine small intestinal epithelial cell line (IPEC cells) by activating ERS and promote activation of the NF-κB signalling pathway. (biomedcentral.com)
- The results confirmed that TsKaSPI could activate ERS and lead to apoptosis in intestinal epithelial cells. (biomedcentral.com)
- In conclusion, T. spiralis infection and TsKaSPI can promote cell apoptosis by activating the ERS response in intestinal epithelial cells and activate the NF-κB signalling pathway to promote the occurrence and development of inflammation. (biomedcentral.com)
- Therefore, we hypothesized that T. spiralis SPI (TsSPI) may be involved in intestinal epithelial cell apoptosis induced by T. spiralis infection, but the specific mechanism remains to be further explored. (biomedcentral.com)

- Previous studies showed that recombinant T. spiralis C-type lectin (rTsCTL) promotes larval invasion of intestinal epithelium cells (IEC), whereas anti-rTsCTL antibodies inhibits larval invasion. (bvsalud.org)
- ß-Xyloside (a syndecan-1 synthesis inhibitor) and Stattic (a STAT3 inhibitor) significantly inhibited rTsCTL binding to syndecan-1 in Caco-2 cells and activation of the STAT3 pathway, abrogated the effects of rTsCTL on the expression of gut tight junctions, and impeded larval invasion.

- The aim of the present study was to evaluate the biological characteristics and roles of T. spiralis pyruvate kinase M (TsPKM) in sugar metabolism, larval molting and development of T. spiralis. (bvsalud.org)
- Another way in which adults can contract short-term, self-limiting intestinal ascarids is through ingesting infected wild animals such as rodents, birds and some insects. (carnivora.ca)
- Invasion from natural foci is entered into synanthropic in two ways: by a person who hunts invasive wild animals and feeds their remains to domestic animals, and wild synanthropic (rats, mice) that migrate in the spring to natural foci, and return back in the fall. (stop-seizures-meds.com)
- Recovery of newly hatched larvae from the peritoneal fluid at four-eight hours after oral infection suggests a direct passage from the stomach or intestinal wall to the musculature. (parasite-journal.org)
