Abstract excerpt
Infection by Trichinella spiralis induces host muscle cells to become repositioned within the cell cycle and to lose differentiated skeletal muscle characteristics. Antibodies to a 43-kDa excretory-secretory (ES) protein (p43) also bind to infected host cell nuclei. Neither the identity of these nuclear antigens nor their role in inducing the infected cell phenotype is known. To address these issues, infected...
