Response of ADA and its isoenzymes in mice infected by Trichinella spiralis and treated with mimosine.

Abstract:

:Infections caused by the nematode Trichinella spiralis (T. spiralis) are characterized by an inflammatory response in the host. The aim of this study was to identify and evaluate markers for monitoring mice infected with T. spiralis and treated with or without mimosine. The markers that have been used were total and differential white blood cell counts, subpopulations of lymphocytes, serum tADA and its isoenzymes ADA1 and ADA2 activity. The study included 3 groups of BALB/c mice. Group A consisted of 16 healthy mice, Group B of 16 mice infected with T. spiralis and treated with saline, and Group C of 16 mice infected with T. spiralis and treated with mimosine. The measurements were made once per week for the first six weeks continuously following the infection. According to our results, leukocytosis, lymphocytosis and increased percentages of adhesion molecules and CD4 lymphocytes were present in groups B and C one week post-infection. Total ADA activity as well as ADA1 and ADA2 was higher in groups B and C versus group A from the first week post-infection. The levels of tADA activity, ADA1 and ADA2 were higher in group B compared to those of group C and the difference was statistically significant (p<0.05) during the 4th week post-infection. The majority of tADA activity, essential for an efficient immune response, was derived from ADA1 which may have been produced by infected tissues. The elevated activities of tADA and ADA1 may be sensitive markers for infection of T. spiralis and for monitoring the course of the infection.
