Molecular systematics of the protozoan parasite Giardia intestinalis : identification of cryptic species / Paul T. Monis.

Monis, Paul T. January 1997 (has links)
Copies of author's previously published articles inserted. / Includes bibliographies. / iii, 277, [81] leaves : ill. ; 30 cm. / Title page, contents and abstract only. The complete thesis in print form is available from the University Library. / The aim of this research is to investigate the phylogeny of isolates of the intestinal protozoan parasite Giardia intestinalis using molecular systematic techniques. Most of the isolates used in this study are propagated by the infection of suckling mice. Isolates are characterised allozymically and their genetic relationships are inferred using clustering methods. Seven lineages of isolates are identified, five comprising animal-derived G. intestinalis, and two comprising human-and animal-derived G. intestinalis. / Thesis (Ph.D.)--University of Adelaide, Dept. of Microbiology and Immunology, 1997?

Efeitos do Dietilditiocarbamato em Trofo.pdf: 3361074 bytes, checksum: e19c34444cdf9505da3479b6a62ee82a (MD5) Previous issue date: 2008 / Fundação Oswaldo Cruz. Centro de Pesquisas Gonçalo Moniz. Salvador, Bahia, Brasil / O protozoário microaerófilo Giardia lamblia coloniza o trato intestinal de hospedeiros vertebrados, onde é exposto a diferentes concentrações de oxigênio. Apesar do metabolismo fermentativo, trofozoítos de Giardia consomem oxigênio e mecanismos de detoxificação são requeridos. Desprovido de glutationa, Giardia expressa altas concentrações de proteínas ricas em cisteína (CRP, também conhecidas como proteínas variantes de superfície ou VSP), como defesa antioxidante. Este mecanismo envolve ciclagem redox para a manutenção de um ambiente intracelular reduzido e proteção contra o estresse oxidativo. Neste contexto, substâncias que interfiram na resposta antioxidante deste protozoário podem compreender uma poderosa estratégia quimioterápica contra a giardíase. Neste estudo, nós analisamos os efeitos do dietilditiocarbamato (DETC), um inibidor de superóxido dismutase (SOD), na proliferação do parasito, expressão de tióis totais, lipoperoxidação, produção de radicais livres e arquitetura celular. DETC inibiu a proliferação celular em níveis semelhantes ao metronidazol e induziu a peroxidação de membranas neste parasito, possivelmente pelo aumento de espécies reativas. Alterações ultraestruturais também foram observadas neste protozoário. Células tratadas com DETC apresentaram alto grau de extração citoplasmática, além de estruturas indicativas de autofagia. As vesículas periféricas também se encontravam maiores, sugerindo confluência. Estes efeitos são independentes de SOD, já que Giardia não apresenta esta enzima. Detecção de grupos tiol com a sonda fluorescente o-phthaldialdeído (OPA) foram significantemente moduladas negativamente pelo DETC. Estes dados nos indicam que DETC aumenta o estresse oxidativo em trofozoítos de Gardia lamblia pela reação com grupos tiol. / The microaerophilic protozoan Giardia lamblia inhabits the upper small intestine mucosa of vertebrate hosts, where it is exposed to different concentrations of oxygen. Despite the fermentative metabolism, Giardia trophozoites consume O2 and produce oxygen free radicals and therefore mechanism for detoxification are required. Devoid of glutathione, Giardia express high concentrations of cystein-rich proteins (CRP, also known as variable surface protein or VSP), as an antioxidant defense. This mechanism involves redox cycling for maintenance of a reduced intracellular environment and protection from oxidative stress. In this regard, substances that interfere in the antioxidant response of this protozoan could comprise a powerful chemotherapeutic strategy for Giardia lamblia infection. Here, we analyzed the effects of DETC, a superoxide dismutase (SOD) inhibitor, on parasite proliferation, thiol expression, lipid peroxidation, free radicals detection and cell architecture. DETC inhibited parasite proliferation at levels similar to metronidazole and induced peroxidation of membrane, possibly by the increase of reactive species.Ultrastructural alteration were also observed. Since this protozoan is devoid of SOD, here present data indicate SOD-independ DETC effects. Thiol groups detection with the fluorescent probe o-phthaldialdehyde (OPA). Cells treated with DETC displayed washed out cytoplasm and structures indicative of autophagy. The peripheral vesicles also had an increased volume, presumably caused by homophilic fusion. Taken together these data indicate that DETC enhance the oxidative stress in Giardia trophozoites by reacting with thiol groups.
