Reversible acquisition of a host cell surface membrane antigen by Trypanosoma cruzi.

Q Chess, A M Acosta, J K Sethi, C A Santos-Buch.   

Abstract

The ability of Trypanosoma cruzi, the etiological agent of Chagas' disease to acquire host cell surface antigen was tested. Parasites emerging after intracellular replication in WOS sarcoma monolayers expressed a sarcoma-associated surface antigen. This antigen was deleted from these parasites after replication in the MNS control monolayer, which does not express WOS sarcoma-associated surface antigen, or by replication in cell-free medium. This type of reversible acquisition of host surface antigen has not been previously described in T. cruzi or other intracellular protozoan parasites.
