STAT5B, a specific member of the STAT family, is intimately associated with prostate tumor progression. While the full form of STAT5B is thought to promote tumor progression, a naturally occurring truncated isoform acts as a tumor suppressor. We prev

Trichomonas vaginalis is a protozoan responsible for the number one, non-viral sexually transmitted disease. Surface proteins (AP65, AP51, AP33 and AP23) mediate adherence to vaginal epithelial cells (VECs). Iron increases growth of trichomonads and

The proteins AP65, AP51, AP33 and AP23 synthesized by Trichomonas vaginalis organisms in high iron play a role in adherence. Multigene families encode enzymes of the hydrogenosome organelles, which have identity to adhesins. This fact raises question

All urogenital mucosal pathogens must overcome host factors and responses in order to colonize the mucosa and establish infection. These include the extensive mucus layer, nutrient-limiting conditions antibody responses and the constant fluid flow of

Iron is an essential nutrient for Trichomonas vaginalis and is acquired via highly specific receptor-mediated mechanisms from the host. Responses of T. vaginalis to conditions of iron limitation or iron excess were analysed in order to determine whet

Specific receptor-mediated binding by Trichomonas vaginalis of human erythrocytes was demonstrated. The ability of live parasites to internalize erythrocytes was also documented. In vitro growth assays during lipid-free and iron-limiting conditions t

Trichomonosis is the vaginitis caused by Trichomonas vaginalis. This sexually transmitted agent achieves successful host parasitism through various means including: (1). acquisition of nutrients through specific receptors; (2). recognition and bindin
