child. Diagnosis of acute infections in pregnant women is challenging but crucially important as the drugs used to treat T. gondii infections are potentially harmful to the unborn child. Better, faster, more reliable, and cheaper means of diagnosis by using defined antigens for accurate serological tests are highly desirable. Synthetic pathogen‐specific glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI) glycan antigens
全世界约有20亿人感染了apicomplexan寄生虫弓形虫,这种毒素会诱发多种医学疾病。例如,怀孕期间的原发感染可导致胎儿死亡或儿童智力低下。孕妇急性感染的诊断具有挑战性,但至关重要,因为用于治疗弓形虫感染的药物可能会对未出生的婴儿造成危害。通过使用确定的抗原进行准确的血清学检测,提供更好,更快,更可靠和更便宜的诊断方法是非常需要的。合成的病原体特异性糖基磷脂酰肌醇(GPI)聚糖抗原是诊断标记,已被用于使用人类血清区分弓形虫病状态。
