Abstract

Protozoan parasites of the genus Leishmania cause a number of important human diseases. One of thekey determinants of parasite infectivity and survival is the surface glycoconjugate lipophosphoglycan (LPG). In addi-tion, LPG is shown to be useful as a transmission blocking vaccine. Since culture supernatant of parasite promastig-otes is a good source of LPG, we made attempts to characterize functions of the culture supernatant, and membraneLPG isolated from metacyclic promastigotes of Leishmania major. The purification scheme included anion-exchangechromatography, hydrophobic interaction chromatography and cold methanol precipitation. The purity of supernatantLPG (sLPG) and membrane LPG (mLPG) was determined by SDS-PAGE and thin layer chromatography. The effectof mLPG and sLPG on nitric oxide (NO) production by murine macrophages cell line (J774.1A) was studied. BothsLPG and mLPG induced NO production in a dose dependent manner but sLPG induced significantly higher amountof NO than mLPG. Our results show that sLPG is able to promote NO production by murine macrophages.
