项目摘要

The locomotory system of nematodes is the target of many currently used anthelminthics, since disruption of locomotory behavior interferes with the normal processes by which many nematodes maintain their position within the host. The problem of genetic drug resistance is making many of the available drugs less effective, so it is important to develop new generations of anti-nematdde drugs. The proposed research aims to describe new intercellular signaling systems that are important in the motornervous system that controls locomotion. Our strategy is based on our previous work in which we isolated and sequenced a large family of 29 novel endogenous neuropeptides in the parasitic nematode, Ascaris suum. Preliminary experiments have shown that almost all of the peptides tested have potent activity .on the neuromuscular system of Ascaris. Some cause paralysis, others exaggerate locomotory movements. Neuropeptides, therefore, play an important role in the overall activity of the motornervous system. There is every indication that there are many more peptides than the ones we have isolated so far. There is no indication that the currently available peptides are the most potent, so we propose to isolate new peptides, concentrating on those that are present in the motornervous system, in order to detect new peptides that have potent physiological activity. This is basic research upon which new generations of anthelminthics can ultimately be developed.

线虫的运动系统是许多目前使用的驱虫剂的靶标，因为运动行为的中断干扰了许多线虫维持生命的正常过程，在宿主中的位置。基因抗药性的问题使得许多可用的药物因此，开发新一代的抗抑郁药物非常重要。拟议研究目的是描述新的细胞间信号系统是重要的运动神经系统，控制运动我们的策略是基于我们以前的工作，我们分离和测序了一个大的猪蛔虫中29种新的内源性神经肽家族。初步实验表明，几乎所有测试的肽对神经肌肉蛔虫系统有些会导致瘫痪，有些则会夸大运动。神经肽，因此，在运动神经系统的整体活动中发挥重要作用。种种迹象比我们目前分离出的肽要多得多。没有迹象表明目前可用的肽是最有效的，所以我们建议分离新的肽，集中在那些存在于运动神经系统中的肽，以检测具有强效活性的新肽生理活动这是新一代驱虫药最终可以开发
