Acquired immunity in rats against Angiostrongylus cantonensis infection.

L C Wang, D Chao, E R Chen.   

Abstract

Acquired immunity against Angiostrongylus cantonensis was induced by immunizing rats with somatic antigens from fifth-stage larvae and adult worms and live third-stage larvae. Rats immunized twice had significantly fewer worms than rats immunized three times. Fewer worms were recovered from rats immunized with 200 live third-stage larvae than from any other groups. Rats immunized with somatic antigens had higher enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) antibody levels than rats immunized with live larvae. Rats immunized with live third-stage larvae of Angiostrongylus cantonensis were more strongly protected against challenge infections (62-92%) than rats immunized with antigens extracted from fifth-stage larvae (0-30%) and adult worms (11-24%).
