Disclosed herein is an avirulent live vaccine that involves a recombinant protozoan from the order Trypanosomatida having a knocked out or silenced cyclophilin gene, wherein the cyclophilin gene comprises T. cruzi cyclophilin 19 (TcCyp19) gene, or an orthologue thereof. Also disclosed is a method or inducing a protective immune response in a subject that involves administering to the subject a vaccine disclosed herein. Also disclosed is a method of treating or preventing Chagas disease, African trypanosomiasis, and/or leishmaniasis in a subject that involves administering to the subject a vaccine disclosed herein.

Mixed allergen compositions of two or more different allergens are provided. In some instances, the mixed allergen compositions include: a nut allergen; an animal allergen; and at least one of: a non-nut plant allergen; a biotic agent; and a vitamin. Also provided are methods of administering the mixed allergen compositions to a subject. The mixed allergen compositions find use in a variety of applications, including health maintenance, immune balance, gut balance, immune support, health improvement and therapeutic applications.

The present invention relates to methods and compositions for preventing, treating and diagnosing infection by trypanosomes. The invention also relates to the use of excreted/secreted antigens (exoantigens, secretome) and specifically to the identification of a protein excreted/secreted by the trypanosomes, the inhibition of which makes it possible to provide effective protection, mainly by vaccination, against infection by trypanosomes or the development or spread thereof. The invention relates to use of the protein, the derivatives thereof, a nucleotide sequence derived from said protein, or an extract enriched with said protein, and to the use of antibodies directed against said trypanosomes for immunotherapy, diagnosis, and monitoring of infections by trypanosomes.
