Characterization of Dr20/22: Molecular Insights and Antibody Response in Naturally Infected Dogs with <i>Dirofilaria repens</i>

2023-09-15

Abstract excerpt

Subcutaneous dirofilariasis, caused by the parasitic nematode Dirofilaria repens, is a growing concern in Europe, affecting both dogs and humans. This study focused on D. repens Dr20/22, a protein encoded by an alt (abundant larval transcript) gene family. While well-documented in L3 larvae of other filariae species, this gene family had not been explored in dirofilariasis. The research involved cloning Dr20/22 cD...
