1 16783371 Using a signal sequence trap, we cloned from Schistosoma mansoni two cDNAs, Sm-tsp-1 and Sm-tsp-2, encoding the tetraspanin (TSP) integral membrane proteins TSP-1 and TSP-2.
2 16783371 Recombinant TSP-2, but not TSP-1, is strongly recognized by IgG1 and IgG3 (but not IgE) from naturally resistant individuals but is not recognized by IgG from chronically infected or unexposed individuals.
3 16783371 Vaccination of mice with the recombinant proteins followed by challenge infection with S. mansoni resulted in reductions of 57% and 64% (TSP-2) and 34% and 52% (TSP-1) for mean adult worm burdens and liver egg burdens, respectively, over two independent trials.

9 16783371 Vaccination of mice with the recombinant proteins followed by challenge infection with S. mansoni resulted in reductions of 57% and 64% (TSP-2) and 34% and 52% (TSP-1) for mean adult worm burdens and liver egg burdens, respectively, over two independent trials.
10 18486598 In this work, we were surprised to identify seven tetraspanin-2 (TSP-2) homologs of the protective antigen Sm-TSP-2 in Schistosoma japonicum and found that the transcription profiles of Sj-tsp-2 subclasses were highly variable in individual adult worms.
11 19782112 Recently, members of a transmembrane protein tetraspanin (TSP) family have been used as vaccines against schistosomosis, or as diagnostic antigens for cysticercosis.
12 19782112 In this study, seven tetraspanins of E. multilocularis, designated as TSP1 to TSP7, were evaluated for their protective potential against primary alveolar echinococcosis.
13 24127010 Tumor-infiltrating CD4(+) and CD8(+) T cells were increased after the administration of TSP-1 shRNA.
14 24127010 The expression of interleukin-12 and interferon-γ in the lymph nodes was enhanced by injection of TSP-1 shRNA.
15 24127010 Lymphocytes from the mice injected with TSP-1 shRNA selectively killed the tumor cells, and the cytotoxicity of lymphocytes was abolished by depletion of CD8(+) T cells.
16 24127010 Injection of CD11c(+) TSP-1-knockout (TSP-1-KO) bone marrow-derived DCs (BMDCs) delayed tumor growth in tumor-bearing mice.
17 24127010 In contrast, the administration of shRNAs targeting TSP-2, another TSP family member, did not extend the survival of tumor-bearing mice.
18 25956946 The yeasts displaying the EtMic1 polypeptide-III (expressed TSP-2, TSP-3 and TSP-4 domains) provided better protection against challenge than the yeasts displaying either the EtMic1 polypeptide-I (expressed I-domain, TSP-1 and TSP-2) or polypeptide-II (expressed I-domain and all the five TSP domains) did.
