Full textSchistosomiasis caused by Schistosoma mansoni is a very important disease from a public health perspective. Although, the disease is focused its distribution is worldwide. The infection can determine clinical disease which hamper the laborious capacity of individuals and reduce the quality-adjusted life years. Recently, control programmes based in treatment, sanitation, supply of clean water and chemical control of snails have had a significant impact on the morbidity of this parasitosis, mainly due to reduction of the intensity and prevalence of infection. The endemic area for schistosomiasis in Ceara, was delimited in 1977, and it includes 2,972 villages over 16 municipalities. The control programme has been implemented, systematically and uniformly, in all endemic villages of Ceara for 20 years. Some villages have displayed a dramatic decrease in the intensity and prevalence of infection, although other did not. This study aims to describe the factors involved in the maintenance of transmission of schistosomiasis in an area under pressure of control over 20 years. Specifically, we compared the prevalence of risky behaviors, environmental risk factors, density and natural infection rate of snails from villages with high transmission with those from low transmission villages. We have concluded that some risk factors were more prevalent in high transmission villages, and others had similar prevalence in both group of villages. Moreover, the low transmission villages were in a lower degree of urbanization, in order that the man-water contact were more frequent there. Despite a lower exposure to water in the high transmission area, the likelihood of infection was higher because the environment exposes individual to a higher burden of the parasite expressed by a higher density and natural infection rate of snails in the higher transmission area.

Full textDuring an infection with Schistosoma mansoni, immunopathology is associated with a dominant TH-2 type cytokine expression, tissue cosinophilia and high levels of serum immunoglobulin E. It is postulated that in addition to egg specific CD4+T cells, an IL-4Rα+ non-T cell effector population is required to prevent tissue pathology. The role of this dissertation was to examine the functional role of IL-Rα expression on the cells of the myeloid and lymphoid lineages during an acute Schistosoma mansoni infection and its requirement for the extent pf schistosome egg induced lung inflammation and pathology.

Full textLa schistosomiase et la fasciolose sont deux maladies parasitaires qui touchent un grand nombre de personnes, en particulier dans les pays en développement, causant une morbidité élevée. Le diagnostic est essentiel pour le contrôle, le traitement et le pronostic de ces maladies et pourtant aucun essai simple, abordable, sensible et spécifique n'est disponible à ce jour pour l'une d'entre elles. Dans le cadre de la présente étude, cathepsine B (SmCB) et cathepsine L1 (FhCL1) ont fait l'objet d'une investigation sur leur potentiel à être utiliser pour diagnostiquer la schistosomiase et fasciolose, respectivement, chez les humains. Dans la présente étude, les gènes encodant SmCB et FhCL1 ont été exprimés dans Pichia pastoris et les protéines isolées par chromatographie d'affinité. Le test ELISA pour SmCB a été optimisé pour une concentration en antigène et pour une dilution d'anticorps primaire et secondaire en utilisant un pool de sérums provenant de patients qui étaient positifs ou négatifs pour la schistosomiase suivant des examens coprologique. Une distinction claire entre ces deux bassins de sérums a été observée. Toutefois, lorsque le test a été utilisé pour dépister des patients du Sénégal, il a échoué à fournir une discrimination satisfaisante entre les individus infectés et non-infectés par la schistosomiase.Le test ELISA pour FhCL1 a été optimisé à l'aide de sérums provenant de personnes cubaines infectées par la fasciolose et de patients non-infectés de Cuba et du Canada. Nous avons déterminé la dilution optimale pour l'anticorps primaire et également évalué et comparé la performance des anticorps secondaires conjugués contre les IgG totaux, IgG4, IgG1 et IgG2. Les IgG totaux ont fourni la meilleure discrimination entre les personnes infectées et non-infectées par la fasciolose avec une sensibilité et une spécificité de 99.99 %. En plus, en appliquant le test de dépistage sur des patients infectés par d'autres variétés de vers et de protozoaires, nous avons démontré que le test ELISA pour FhCL1 ne réagit pas de façon croisée avec d'autres maladies retrouvées couramment dans les régions géographiques où se trouve la fasciolose.En conclusion, le diagnostic de la schistosomiase humaine reste encore incertain et d'autres études doivent être effectuées pour améliorer notre test de dépistage utilisant SmCB. D'autre part, nous avons développé un test simple, sensible, spécifique et précis pour le dépistage de la fasciolose humaine en utilisant FhCL1, une protéase majeure relâchée par le parasite. Le système d'expression de P. pastoris nous a permis d'obtenir jusqu'à 80 mg de FhCL1 par 4 litres de culture. Dans la présente étude, nous avons non seulement mis au point un test standardisé démontrant une spécificité et une sensibilité élevées, mais également développé une procédure pour produire de grandes quantités d'antigènes nécessaires au dépistage à grande échelle de la fasciolose humaine dans les régions touchées.
